Cortana can now help you score deals through Microsoft Edge
Microsoft is augmenting its Edge internet browser with another feature from its digital assistant Cortana so it can save you a few bucks shopping (and maybe convince you to actually use Edge.)
Starting now, Microsoft is rolling out a pilot feature for Microsoft Edge that allows Cortana to compare prices for merchandise on the web.
The feature works similar to other Cortana features, where the digital assistant will give you a notification if there's relevant information on the webpage you're on.
Once activated, the alert brings comparable pricing for whatever item you're looking at, should it have the relevant information on hand. An example of the feature in progress can be seen below:
Cortana's newly added shopping tips are currently rolling out for users running the Windows 10 Creators Update, with Microsoft accepting feedback as the feature continues to develop.
So far, the feature supports up to 14 major retailers in the US, including Amazon, Walmart, and eBay. According to Microsoft, regional availability and number of retailers is expected to increase "in the months ahead."
