Can’t keep track of the stuff you want to buy? Meet Carrot, the extension that automatically collects your carts as you shop. You can get back to products with a click, create shareable and gift-able collections, get price drop alerts, and it's totally free!

*** Here’s 8 things Carrot can do for you right now *** 1. Carrot finds your open carts from all around the web. It happens as soon as you install the extension, and it’s pretty much magic. Can you remember all the carts you’ve started? We can’t either. But then Carrot does its cart-finding thing, and just like that, all your carts are in one place. (Oh right, those sneakers!) 🛒 2. Then, it automatically collects your carts as you shop. We repeat: automatically. The way it works is simple: You add products to your cart, your cart is saved to Carrot. Which means you never have to worry about losing things from your carts ever again. 🛍 3. Saving for later is simple. Carrot is also perfect for saving products you aren’t quite ready to add to cart right now, but want to keep an eye on for later. Stumbled across something you love? Just right-click to add it to Carrot. ✅ 4. Returning to carts is a snap. How many times have you finally decided to pull the trigger on a purchase, then had trouble finding your way back to the site? With Carrot, everything you want is saved right there in the extension — so checkout is always just one click away. 🤩 5. You can organize products and carts into collections. And you can use those collections for anything. Window shopping for the future. Collaborating on home projects with your partner. Travel shopping. Wish lists. Gift lists. With Carrot, creating groups of products is easy — no spreadsheet gymnastics required. Any collection can also be converted into a gift-able registry that you can share with family and friends. 🙌 6. Shareable links make it simple to get input from family and friends. You know who likes getting sent a million different screenshots of products? No one. But asking people for their opinion is one of the most important parts of shopping, and with links to carts and collections, you can send everything you’re wondering about at once, with just one link. 🔗 7. Comparing products has never been easier. Carrot puts products from all around the web into a single, beautiful feed. With all your carts in the same place, it’s so easy to compare products visually and by price. 💄 8. Get alerted to price drops without lifting a finger. Carrot knows the products you want to buy and will alert you to meaningful drops in price the moment it detects one. This price drop will find you, you won’t need to do a thing. 💸 We made Carrot because we love the hunt for great products and we love to shop. If you’re like us, we think you’ll really enjoy using Carrot with us. We look forward to seeing you in the product.

Carrot is one of those products that beg the question “Why did it take someone so long to build this?” It’s an incredibly helpful and powerful tool that’s been designed to work effortlessly and has one of the best onboarding experiences I’ve seen in a long time. Congrats Ramin, Bobby and team!
Ramin Bozorgzadeh
@kessler To be fair, it didn't take us _that_ long to build ;-) jk jk, we're nowhere near finished!

I love the idea of a universal shopping cart built in the browser...! Connect this to crypto checkout and it's a homerun! 🥕
Ramin Bozorgzadeh
@chrismessina damn, cryptocart.com is taken! but you may be on to something ;-)

@ramincarrot Scrolled through the posts and may have missed this question if it's been asked: I signed up using my Google account but I have two accounts, one for work and one for home, that I use. In some cases, I have services attached to my work address, e.g. Amazon Prime that I use for both work and home and vice-versa. Does Carrot allow you to add more than one Google account? I did sign up and didn't see a method to do this.
Ramin Bozorgzadeh
hi @scottwwilliams, we don't currently allow you to use multiple google accounts on the same Carrot account (each one will create a new account.) But it shouldn't matter which google account you use, as long as you are logged in using the same one on the browser that you are using to shop. If you accidentally created an account using one google account (and claimed a username that you want to re-use), we can fix that for you. Shoot me an email at ramin@addtocarrot.com and we can sort it out for you.
Scott Williams
Makes perfect sense. I just logged back in and was able to claim my username so all is good. Thanks for the quick response!
Ramin Bozorgzadeh
@scottwwilliams Awesome. glad it worked out

Hiya fellow product hunters, welcome to Carrot’s beta, you can download the extension at https://www.addtocarrot.com For some people, shopping online is easy. But for most of us, it’s kind of a mess. You start carts, then forget where they are. You send yourself emails or texts with links to products you want to buy, then lose track of those too. You keep a million tabs open while you’re looking for something (the perfect sweater, an ergonomic office chair, home decor that pops...), and if even just one of them gets closed before you’re ready to buy, it’s a disaster. 🥴 We built Carrot to make this problem go away. It’s a free extension that works across 500,000+ stores, from big-name brands like Etsy and Target to gems you haven’t discovered yet — and it’s guaranteed to make shopping less stressful and more fun. *** Here’s 8 things Carrot can do for you right now *** 1. Carrot finds your open carts from all around the web. It happens as soon as you install the extension, and it’s pretty much magic. Can you remember all the carts you’ve started? We can’t either.

I’ve been using Carrot for a few months and it has started to change the way I shop - for one I don’t have loads of tabs open all the time anymore. Also love the gift registry feature it’s come in very handy in the lead up to Christmas! 🥰
Ramin Bozorgzadeh
@creeshla hope Carrot helped you get a nice gift this year!
lisariolo
I like the concept of saving / creating and shopping collections. Good Luck!!!
Nik Sharma
I’m so excited to see this project come to life. Congrats to the entire Carrot team for working hard to get to this point!
Bobby Ghoshal
@mrsharma thanks Nik, high praise coming from you!
Nick Simpson
I love Carrot! 🥕🥕🥕 Not only just for personal use for saving items in one place. The fact that I can build and share carts for recommendations is incredible. Shopping carts are so challenging for influencers and this just makes so much sense.
Bobby Ghoshal
@itsnicksimpson thank you kindly good sir, you are an amazing user to have in our community

Proud to say I'm used 100 from the Carrot alpha. I love this product. It feels like this is how shopping on the internet should always have worked.
Russell Barnard
@treggify Great to have you onboard! 😁 would love to know how long it took to adapt to using Carrot when shopping (or if you had to change at all)
Tregg
@russellbarnard Honestly it was pretty instant. I've been chatting in the Slack for a good while and it's been cool to see it grow over this short time.
Ricky Synnot
VERY excited to try this out when it becomes available in Australia. From the interviews Bobby has done to the demos here, this will save so much time and headache!
Ramin Bozorgzadeh
@rickysynnot international is coming soon! stay tuned
Bobby Ghoshal
@rickysynnot can't wait to bring it to the aussies, honestly, think yall will love this
Alex Borsuk
Until today, I didn't know that I needed such an extension for my browser. Cool idea and implementation!
Ramin Bozorgzadeh
@alexander_borsuk thanks for the support! we hope you find good use out of it
Jack Zerby
Amazing product and team! Everything Bobby touches is gold :)
Ramin Bozorgzadeh
@jack_zerby he does have that golden touch. please share any feedback you may have after using the product. Bobby's friends give the best feedback!
Bobby Ghoshal
@jack_zerby awww thanks Jack, I def can't take much credit here, 4 other folks over at Carrot working their faces off to make this thing great. <3
Ben Blumenrose
Carrot does so many helpful things that seem so obvious once you use the - e.g. help me share a cart to get quick input from family/friends, turn a group of items into a registry with one click (e.g. send family a quick list of things they can buy a young kid for the holidays), etc. And the team is just getting started and ships crazy fast. Good stuff y'all.
Ramin Bozorgzadeh
@ben_blumenfeld thanks for the support! wait 'til you see what we've got cooking for next year!
Alex Kayaian
congrats on the launch!
Ramin Bozorgzadeh
@alexkayaian Thank you!
Jonny Lander
Carrot works like a dream. We have weirdly been using it for all kinds of other stuff, not just your typical online purchases. For example, we created our very own vacation curation with a few places we want to try out next year – super awesome.
Ramin Bozorgzadeh
@jonny_lander You're not alone on this one. We've seen some very creative usages of Carrot beyond just shopping for products. Maybe we'll start looking into price drop notifications on vacation rentals and destinations as well!
