Search API

Search that understands grocery.
Not just keywords.

The Prodx Search API transforms raw product catalogs into an intelligent search layer that understands shopper intent. It processes natural language queries, handles misspellings, interprets context, and returns relevant results ranked by what shoppers actually want to buy. Every product in your catalog gets standardized naming, categorization, and attribute enrichment so search works the way shoppers think.

Why Search Fails in Grocery

The problem isn't your search engine. The problem is the data powering it.

Incomplete Data

Missing attributes mean products can't be found. If "organic" isn't tagged, organic products won't appear in organic searches.

Inconsistent Taxonomy

The same products are categorized differently across systems. "Dairy > Milk" in one source, "Beverages > Dairy" in another.

No Semantic Understanding

Search engines can't interpret what shoppers actually mean. "2%" should return reduced fat milk, not a discount.

Clean Data Makes Search Work

Prodx sits between your raw data and every downstream system, structuring and enriching it continuously.
  • Enriches every product with 1,200+ attributes
  • Maps semantic relationships between products
  • Sub-15ms API response times
  • Normalizes taxonomy across all sources
  • Continuous maintenance, not a one-time fix
  • Production-ready from day one
