Google's agentic AI now buys things for you and even calls stores to see what's in stock
"First, Google's agentic AI can now call stores on your behalf to ask what's in stock. This is available when you search for certain products near you in Google Search. When you see the "Let Google call" option, tap "get started" and you'll get a few questions tailored to what you're shopping for. Google's AI then calls stores nearby to see if they have what you're looking for in stock, how much it costs, and if there are any special offers."
"Google's AI can now also buy things for you thanks to agentic checkout. If you track an item's price in Google Search, you can select the exact item you want, including size, color, and amount you want to spend, and you'll get a notification when the price reaches your budget. Then you can have Google buy the item for you using Google Pay. This only works with eligible merchants and Google will ask your permission first."
"Speaking of AI Mode, this now lets you "describe what you're looking for just as you'd say it to a friend" and then gives you an intelligently organized response with rich visuals and important details like price, reviews, and inventory info. AI Mode responses are "tailored to your specific question and formatted for your needs", Google says. Finally, you can now use shopping features in the Gemini app in the US."
Google's agentic AI can call nearby stores to check inventory, prices, and special offers for certain product searches, sending results by email or text. The calling feature appears as a "Let Google call" option and asks tailored questions before phoning stores. Agentic checkout lets users track item prices, select specific variants, and authorize Google to purchase via Google Pay with merchant eligibility and prior permission. AI Mode accepts natural language queries and returns organized responses with visuals, prices, reviews, and inventory details. The Gemini app adds shopping features in the US, including holiday ideas and shoppable listings.
