The chat interface in the one you’re seeing in my screenshot is Telegram, but can be any sufficiently rich notification mechanism. The agent harness can pretty much be anything, the one here is Codex. There’s some additional plumbing to make the actual order work on any merchant.
The interface Amrish is referring to is Bigbasket’s app with a custom agent powered by Pine Labs and the payment is through IIRC a new flow Mastercard is working on.
@amrishrau would love to chat with you on this a bit more at GFF.
This is a paid tweet, but in a different kind of way. I had to pay to try this out 😁
Very very cool implementation of agentic payments, something I would truly feel comfortable using and giving access to my payment credentials
Oi @ZeptoNow. On your order list page, you have an “order again” button.
Clicking this button replaces everything in my cart.
Like removes everything that was already there and adds what was in the order being referenced. No warning / modal, nothing.
This is the kind of feature where you involve a product manager. Please.

A customer who will now have to spend the rest of the day trying to remember what was in the obliterated cart.
What do you do when you lack the ability to enforce compliance, especially against the small (%) of bad actors? You outsource it to the abundant number of good faith actors you have available. /sarcasm
Have had this happen at multiple-crore scale- the input credit was an order of magnitude greater than our net margin, so almost went under.
Ultimately though, people just turn away from working with small businesses.
@pranesh@YBNormal78@Aditi_muses Heh, load balancing is indeed not need to fix this, but then when you have two internet connections, load balancing sounds like a great thing to do notwithstanding the binge session.
@pranesh@YBNormal78@Aditi_muses I've never been this invested in the stability of someone's Netflix account (in the absence of an offer to mooch off it).
@pranesh@Aditi_muses@YBNormal78 Not so sure this is necessary. Mine's dual WAN (separate ISPs) and my setup works fine without having to force any traffic through a single ISP here.
