SuggestAPI SuggestAPI

How it works

Agentic commerce on your site — from day one.

You do not replatform. You do not rip out Algolia, Typesense, or Elastic. Add the SuggestAPI agent, connect your catalog, and your storefront becomes discoverable by shopping assistants — while the search you already run keeps working for humans.

Think of SuggestAPI as a layer in front of your existing search — it makes your products easier to find for shoppers typing in a search bar and for AI assistants completing a purchase on someone's behalf.

Three steps. No migration project.

Your existing site, your existing product catalog, one connection on top — live in days, not quarters.

Connect in minutes

Change one endpoint, configure your backend, and go live — language agnostic.

Step 1

Connect your catalog

Point SuggestAPI at the products, collections, and inventory you already have. We work with the search setup you run today — or help you start from scratch if search is still a gap.

Your Algolia, Typesense, or Elastic index stays the source of truth.

Step 2

Add the SuggestAPI agent

Turn on the agent for your storefront. Shopping assistants and copilots can now find real products in your catalog — instead of guessing from marketing pages or outdated training data.

Live in days, not quarters.

Step 3

Agents talk to your search backend

When an assistant searches, compares, or recommends products, SuggestAPI routes the request through your search backend and returns clear, up-to-date product information — search, compare, and recommend without exposing private credentials.

One integration. Human search and agent discovery.

Your stack stays. We sit in front.

SuggestAPI does not replace your search engine. It connects shoppers and AI assistants to the catalog you already operate — same products, same backend, better discovery on top.

Your storefront

Shoppers & site search

The search bar, typeahead, and autocomplete your customers already use.

SuggestAPI

The acceleration layer

Smarter suggestions, agent-ready product data, and a single place to improve discovery over time.

Your search backend

Algolia · Typesense · Elastic · SuggestAPI index

The index you already run — unchanged underneath.

For your site

Better search while people shop

Faster suggestions as shoppers type, typo recovery, and smarter ranking — on the storefront you already operate.

  • Autocomplete and typeahead that feel native
  • Find products even when spelling is off
  • Ranking that improves as people search and click

For shopping assistants

Catalog discovery agents can act on

When someone asks an AI assistant to find boots, compare options, or check availability, SuggestAPI returns real product data from your live catalog — not a guess from a web scrape.

  • Search, compare, and recommend from live inventory
  • Prices, sizes, and availability that stay current
  • Store policies and product details assistants can trust

Why agents need more than your website

AI shopping assistants do not browse your site like a person. They need clear product information — what is in stock, what it costs, and how options compare — pulled from the same catalog your search bar uses.

Real products, not guesses

Titles, prices, availability, and variants from your live catalog — so assistants recommend what you actually sell today.

Your credentials stay private

SuggestAPI handles the connection to your search backend. Assistants and browser clients never see your private API keys.

Works with the search you have

Keep Algolia, Typesense, Elastic, or SuggestAPI's own index. Swap or compare backends later without rebuilding your storefront.

Shoppers and agents, together

One layer improves discovery for everyone — the person typing in your search bar and the assistant completing a task on their behalf.

Built for humans and agents together

SuggestAPI is the intelligence layer between your catalog and everyone trying to find something in it.

For shoppers

Faster search on the site you have

  • Typo-tolerant suggestions and autocomplete
  • Search that gets smarter as people use it
  • Freedom to swap or compare search backends later

For agents

A catalog assistants can shop

  • Find, compare, and recommend from live product data
  • Current inventory — not stale model memory
  • Store content and policies assistants can read
