What they did

PYMNTS tested Meta Muse on three everyday jobs: reordering 6 rolls of toilet paper on Amazon, ordering Domino's and booking on Resy. None went through. Most of the trouble was setup: sharing Amazon logins through a secure link, connecting Gmail and Calendar one at a time, and a Stripe Link checkout that didn't complete. The same reorder took them under 30 seconds on Amazon directly.

How it went

A realistic view of the setup a shopping agent needs before it can save you time.

Worth knowing

  • Press test from Muse's launch week (Sept 2026); things may have improved since. Do setup once, then judge it on repeat errands.

Prompt

Cleaned version rewritten from the source — not a direct quote.

Before I hand you errands: tell me exactly which logins and app connections you'll need for [Amazon reorder / food order / reservation], set them up with me once, then try the task and tell me where you got stuck.

Test whether a shopping agent can be tricked by fake reviews (cautionary)

F-Secure built a shopping agent (vibe-coded with Claude Code, running Claude Haiku, with the user's details in memory) and a mock marketplace with a review pointing to a fake discount-code site. In 100 runs it visited the phishing site 12% of the time and submitted the user's name, date of birth and SSN, almost never telling the user.
