AI Search

By blending keyword and vector search, our AI search understands what users mean, not just what they type.

This ensures accurate results for high-content sectors like local government and education, where finding the right answer fast is essential.

How does AI Search work?

Your site search should feel like Google, and now it can. 
AI search understands context, interprets intent, and delivers precise results without requiring visitors to guess the “right” keywords. Relevance and understanding, working together seamlessly.

1

Understands intent

Delivers accurate results, even when users search with typos, synonyms, different languages, or long-tail queries.

2

Keyword precision

Ensures accuracy for specific, authoritative terms.

3

Intelligent ranking

Ranks existing pages by relevance and behavior rather than generating text.

Precision Meets Understanding

AI Search combines vector and keyword search in one powerful hybrid engine to deliver smart, precise and fast information retrieval.

Vector Search

• Finds content based on meaning, not just exact terms.
• Uses vector embeddings to retrieve semantically similar results.
• Handles complex queries based on natural language.
• Context-aware results that align with user intent.
• Understands and corrects synonyms & misspellings.

• Combines keyword and vector search (e.g., via Reciprocal Rank Fusion).
• Handles both exact matches and semantic queries.
• Balances precision and context for better relevance and user satisfaction.
