SuggestAPISuggestAPI
The discovery layer

Turn shopping intent into products. Everywhere.

Shoppers and agents start with a job to do, not a keyword. SuggestAPI holds that intent through find, compare, recommend, and handoff—on the search you already run, or a SuggestAPI index if you don’t have one.

Shoppers Apps AI agents

A running-shoe search with user intent, real-time signals, context, and device behavior flowing through SuggestAPI into relevant products in about 80ms.

Why we built this

Don’t rebuild discovery for every new AI.

People shop with messy, persistent intent. Existing search drops that context after one query. Merchants shouldn’t have to rebuild discovery for every new assistant just to keep the shopper moving.

Shoppers, apps, and agents reach SuggestAPI first. We hold the shopping job—then retrieve, compare, recommend, and hand off—while your catalog, search, and checkout stay underneath.

Shoppers, apps, and AI agents reach SuggestAPI first. Shopping intent is held there. Your catalog stays underneath, on the search you already run or a SuggestAPI index.

Your search, or ours

IntentRetrieveCompareRecommendHandoff

One layer. The shopping journey.

Keep the intent through the whole path to purchase.

Acceleration, intelligence, and agent discovery sit in front of the engine you already chose—so a new shopping assistant doesn’t mean a new search stack, and a follow-up question doesn’t mean starting over.

01 / Find

Search Acceleration

Get the shopper to the right products fast—caching, routing, query rewriting, and delivery on the engine you already run.

02 / Understand

Discovery Intelligence

03 / Finish

Agent Discovery

The same catalog, structured so assistants can compare, recommend, answer, and hand off to checkout.

Your search stays. Your catalog stays. Your checkout stays.

Built for how people shop.

Start with the job, not the query.

A shopper needs hiking boots for Iceland in October under $250. That’s not a keyword. SuggestAPI turns it into discovery they can refine, compare, and buy from—on the engine you already run.

“hiking boots for Iceland in October under $250”
  • Find it
  • Refine it
  • Compare it
  • Recommend it
  • Hand it off

A shopper asking for a lightweight jacket under $200 for a trip to Japan in April, with SuggestAPI extracting trip, season, and budget signals into ranked product matches.

Human path

Intent → products

Same intent. Agent-ready.

Built for the agent that needs to finish the trip.

Agents don’t want a feature list. They need to keep the shopper’s job intact—search, compare, answer, and hand off to commerce—without changing the catalog underneath.

For your stack

Don’t bet the shopping journey on a new stack.

Keep Algolia, Typesense, Elasticsearch, Meilisearch, or Shopify. SuggestAPI sits in front so you capture shopping intent without replacing the search and checkout you already trust. No engine yet? Start on a SuggestAPI index.

Also Typesense, Elasticsearch, Meilisearch. Adapter notes in Bring Your Own Search.

For your stack

Built for the agentic web.

Meet shoppers where they already ask.

Intent that starts in ChatGPT, Gemini, a copilot, or a shopping agent still needs to land on your products. SuggestAPI is the discovery layer that makes that handoff possible.
