• The Amazon Shopping app is rolling out a new feature in beta.
• The Buy for Me tool will let you buy items from other retail stores right on the app.
• This feature uses AI to purchase the item from the other retail store on your behalf.

Amazon’s catalog of products spans a wide gamut, offering over 35 different categories for hundreds of millions of listings. Despite that large collection of goods, there are still some items you won’t find on Amazon. In its continuous effort to become the one and only place you need to go to shop, the company is rolling out a new tool to help you buy the products you won’t find on its app.

Amazon has announced that it is testing a feature called “Buy for Me,” which is rolling out in beta for select US customers who use the Amazon Shopping app. As the company explains, this tool is meant to help customers find and purchase products from other brands’ sites if they aren’t currently sold in the Amazon store.
