Alexa for Shopping adds text-based comparisons and deal tracking

Texting Alexa for Shopping can now do more than search for products. Amazon says the assistant can compare options, track deals and price drops, and complete purchases on a customer’s behalf. That carries the exchange from weighing products to buying one without leaving the text-based service. The feature starts with invited customers in the US, and Amazon says it plans to expand it to millions in the coming weeks.
