None means we have not found a completed agent purchase. Amazon blocks outside AI shopping agents from its store, and Meta's Muse users see a notice that unauthorized AI agent access violates Amazon's terms, while Amazon's own Alexa for Shopping assistant can still buy for a Prime member and Buy for Me can buy some products off Amazon.

Note on this rowGeekWire also reported that Amazon is suing Perplexity over its Comet browser and moving to block shopping agents from Google and OpenAI. Amazon's May 13, 2026 page states the rename from Rufus to Alexa for Shopping and describes auto-buy and Buy for Me as current features, without separate launch dates. GeekWire says Buy for Me identifies itself and lets brands opt out. On October 28, 2026 EMARKETER said an Amazon spokesperson put Shop Direct at about 250 million outside listings, roughly 2.5 times March. The article says Buy for Me can still buy eligible products on a merchant site, and does not describe Shop Direct as a checkout for outside agents. On November 6, 2026 The Verge said Alexa can take a text and a photo and order for the user, for a small U.S. group, then millions more.
