So I seem to be on a bit of an testing kick. A non-critical product I needed (some replacement filters for an air purifier) was available at the best price from a website I really didn't want to deal with right now. So I put the order in via innosearch.ai. I'm mostly suspicious because the marketing is so polished; I've come to distrust well-marketed products. On the other hand, if innosearch makes it possible for me to spend less money on Amazon, and makes distributing my shopping dollars to other places more practical, it's a net ethical win. If I get entirely the wrong thing, or nothing at all, it won't break me. I'll keep this thread updated with my experiences.

@fastfinge ooh, will be curious to see how that goes for you, I don't think in practice it's any worse than using affiliate links by a podcaster or website for an Amazon purchase, the AI bit and abilities to be more useful than me hunting down the product myself and best seller-pricing I'm still a bit wheery of myself. Hopefully it's a success for you though.

@Tamasg Yeah, if it's on Amazon, I tend to just purchase directly; I have an Amazon Prime account, and I'm comfortable with how the website works. But in this case, the product was only available directly from the manufacturer, or from retailers like wayfair where I don't have an account. And I just don't have the time or mental energy right now to fiddle around with a new website I might use only once.
