Shopper Buddy
Shopper Buddy is a conversational shopping assistant built as a custom ChatGPT GPT. You chat with it about products you want, ask follow-up questions, and get personalized recommendations without wading through ad-heavy search results or retailer pop-ups.
The product is positioned around privacy and a calmer shopping experience. Shopper Buddy states it does not run ads or tracking on its site, and it discloses that some product links it shares are affiliate links. Access runs through OpenAI's ChatGPT platform rather than a standalone web app.
It fits shoppers who already use ChatGPT Plus and want product guidance in a chat format instead of traditional comparison shopping sites.
