What is an intelligent search?
Intelligent search technology is powered by artificial intelligence employed by search engines to deliver the most relevant results based on their search intent.
Also called AI-powered search or cognitive search, the intelligent search engine investigates searchers’ true intent and crawls over information databases to retrieve more valuable results—compared to traditional search.
How is intelligent search different from standard search?
A standard search provides limited results inspired directly by the search terms.
On the other hand, intelligent AI-powered search shows a human-like understanding of search queries and delivers accurate and more relevant results, which leads to a much better user experience.

Why intelligent search matters in e‑commerce
Discover what kind of benefits intelligent search brings to e-commerce and why it's an important tool for most websites that rely on search.
Faster search
The less time visitors spend searching out a product from your store, the higher the customer satisfaction. The precise search helps customers find exactly what they came for in a split second.
Higher conversion
Visitors usually come with a specific product in mind. The earlier they find it, the higher your chances of closing a sale. If potential buyers struggle to find relevant products, they’ll move to your competitor.
Customer retention
A smooth, customized search experience aids customer retention. A visitor who has fast and seamless navigation on your site will not only be encouraged to buy, but they’ll most likely return.

How intelligent search works
Filters content
The AI‑powered search machine crawls over a bulky database of information to deliver the most relevant search result. To avoid a long queue of irrelevant search results, this search application uses advanced filters to streamline the result, offering the most useful data.
Analyzes document structure
The intelligent search process employs document scanning to analyze the form of a document and its structure. It groups information, based on their formats, into different categories: finance, legal, videos, and presentations. This advanced technology employs natural language query understanding to home in on the searcher’s intent.
Natural language processing
Natural Language Processing (NLP) refers to a computer’s ability to interpret human language. The search uses this technology to understand visitors’ keyword search logic and find relevant content from a digital content database. The AI search feature interprets commands imputed in the search box and gives more accurate answers and results.
Uses machine learning
Machine Learning matches historical searches and presents keywords to predict user intent. A visitor searches for ‘green socks’ and begins a new search for ‘socks for men.’ The AI-inspired machine learning would suggest results that link both keywords. For instance, ‘green socks for men,’ ‘customized green socks for men. ‘The machine continues to ‘learn’ and update its knowledge of the searcher’s intent.
