What is ontology-enhanced search?

Hybrid search gives you control over the accuracy and relevance of your ecommerce search results. Each item in your catalog is organized into categories like synonyms, colors, models, and sizes, all connected through an organized system (ontology). This ensures users have an easy, seamless search experience, helping them find exactly what they need.

Ontology-based search features

Create product relationships

Our ontology maps out relationships between your product data, categorizing terms with hyperonyms, hyponyms, and synonyms and distinguishing between products and accessories.

AI-driven search engine

The AI engine processes your product catalog semantically, clustering items by relevant attributes. This enriched data enables exact search results based on the user’s intent.

Named Entity Recognition (NER)

When a user enters a search query, NER technology identifies key product names, categories, and attributes, resolving the user’s intent and delivering relevant products.

Improved product discovery

By connecting related products and accessories through our knowledge graph, hybrid search helps customers find exactly what they’re looking for—even if they don’t know how to phrase their queries.
