Search and Product Discovery

Search and Product Discovery Reviews and Ratings

What is Search and Product Discovery?

Gartner defines search and product discovery as applications that augment digital commerce solutions to facilitate navigation, filtering, comparisons and, ultimately, selection of products. They provide search (keyword, semantic and visual), merchandising (automation, configuration and curation of business rules) and product recommendations. These applications also provide catalog navigation (including SEO keyword automation and guided selling assistants). Personalization, optimization and analytics capabilities should also be available. Platforms are deployed as SaaS. They provide administrative tooling to enable digital commerce roles (merchandisers, content managers and search specialists) to support customer experiences via no-code. With the emergence of generative AI, conversational search and guided selling assistants are now appearing.

Search and product discovery applications can provide the digital customer journey from landing on a website or app to finding the correct product and adding to basket. Search results can be highly visual, using engaging layouts and multimedia. Content other than product information, such as educational information, compliance materials, customer reviews and related news may also be included in search results to engage customers and further support buying decisions.

Yext Search is a hosted search engine that uses AI and natural language understanding to provide business answers for users in real time. Yext Search provides the tools businesses need to answer users’ questions on your website, in your app, or anywhere else people are searching. Yext Search has three components: Yext Content, the index that stores data; the Search backend, which configures how the Search algorithms determine which results are returned; and the Search frontend, which structures how the results are displayed. Yext Search has capabilities around generative answers - effectively using the content to do a RAG (Retrieval Augmented Generation) step off LLM-generated answers. This means businesses can use LLMs, but the scope is constrained to a set of controlled and approved content - eliminating hallucinations such as recommending products or features that do not exist. Yext Search is ideally suited for corporate environments where response accuracy.
