Ask your favorite AI assistant to find products, build a cart, or compare prices across retailers — and get back a real, checkout-ready Share-A-Cart link. No new app to learn, no browser extension required.
Share-A-Cart now plugs directly into AI apps that support MCP (Model Context Protocol) — the same tech that lets Claude and other assistants use real tools. Here's what that unlocks for you.
Describe what you need in plain English — "find a stainless steel french press under $40" — and your AI searches Amazon, Walmart, Target, Best Buy, Kroger and more, right inside the conversation.
Once your AI has the items you want, ask it to build a cart. It hands you a Share-A-Cart link instantly — send it to family, roommates, or a coworker so they can check out with one click.
Ask "is this cheaper somewhere else?" and your AI can price-check the same items across retailers, then hand you two separate cart links — one per store — so you can pick whichever saves you the most.
No new interface to learn — just ask, the way you'd ask a friend to run an errand.
Add the Share-A-Cart connector to Claude, ChatGPT, or any MCP-compatible AI app, then sign in with your free Share-A-Cart account and approve access. It takes a minute and there's nothing to install on your computer.
Search for products, paste in a list, upload a document, or describe a project — your AI figures out what to shop for.
Click through to the retailer with everything already loaded in your cart. Checkout happens on the retailer's own site, exactly like normal — Share-A-Cart never touches your payment info.
The connector doesn't just search — it can read documents and links, do the math, and build the cart for you.
A teacher uploads next week's lesson plan. Their AI reads it, pulls out every material mentioned — construction paper, glue sticks, index cards — and returns one cart link for the whole list.
Paste in a URL to a recipe you found online. Your AI reads the ingredient list, adjusts for servings if you ask, and hands back a cart link with everything you need to cook it.
"I'm hosting an outdoor BBQ for 20 people this summer — what do I need?" Your AI suggests quantities (burgers, buns, drinks, plates, charcoal) and builds a cart sized for your headcount.
Ask "where's this cheaper?" on anything you're about to buy. Your AI checks other retailers and gives you two cart links side by side, so the savings are one click away.
MCP (Model Context Protocol) is a standard that lets AI apps like Claude use outside tools during a conversation. Share-A-Cart's MCP connector is what lets those AI apps search real products and build real, checkout-ready carts on your behalf — without you switching tabs or copy-pasting links.
No. If you're comfortable chatting with an AI app, you're set. The setup is a one-time step of adding the Share-A-Cart connector in your AI app's settings and signing in with your free Share-A-Cart account; from then on, you just talk to it normally.
Yes — a free one. When you connect, your AI app opens a Share-A-Cart sign-in page (Google, Apple, and more) and asks you to approve access. That keeps the carts you create with your AI private to your account and saves them to your cart history automatically.
Any AI app that supports MCP connectors, including Claude. Support across other AI assistants is expanding — check your app's connector or plugin settings for "Share-A-Cart."
No. Share-A-Cart never logs into your retailer accounts and never sees or stores payment details. It only assembles a cart link; you complete checkout yourself, directly on the retailer's website, exactly as if you'd added the items yourself.
No — shopping through the connector is free, the same way Share-A-Cart's browser extension and website are free. We're supported by small affiliate commissions from retailers, never by fees to you.
Amazon, Walmart, Target, Best Buy, Kroger, eBay, and AliExpress can be searched directly by name through the connector today, with more being added. For any of our 200+ other supported stores, your AI can still build a cart link from a product URL you give it.
Not at all — think of it as another way in. The browser extension is still the fastest way to share a cart while you're already shopping on a retailer's site; the AI connector is best when you'd rather just describe what you need and let your AI do the searching.
Connect Share-A-Cart to your AI app and turn any conversation into a cart.
