Overview
- The feature is rolling out in English today on desktop Chrome for U.S. users and appears as a pop-up when clicking the icon beside the address bar.
- AI-generated summaries evaluate product quality, pricing, customer service and return policies by drawing on Google Shopping data and reviews from partners like Bazaarvoice, Trustpilot and ScamAdviser.
- Google says the tool is designed to streamline online shopping and guard against fraudulent sites as it seeks to strengthen Chrome’s edge over Amazon’s AI shopping tools and new AI-focused browsers.
- No date has been announced for extending the store summaries to mobile devices or adding support for other languages, leaving wider availability unclear.
- This rollout builds on Google’s broader AI shopping efforts, which include generative product briefs, virtual try-on features, price-tracking alerts and integration of the Gemini assistant in Chrome.
