The problem

Traditional help center search relies on exact keyword matching. If your customer types "money back" but your article says "refund," they find nothing — and open a support ticket instead.

  • Missed connections due to rigid phrasing requirements.
  • No visibility into which searches fail or why.

The fix

Semantic search uses vector embeddings to match the meaning of queries to your content. It understands context, synonyms, and even typos.

  • Intent-based ranking that surfaces the right answer every time.
  • See exactly which queries fail and fix them in two clicks.

How it works

Import content

Crawl a URL, upload a CSV, or add documents manually. Your support content flows into a tenant-safe project structure.

Embed in minutes

One script tag, shadow DOM isolation, and a floating search button. Your users get semantic search without any backend work.

Tune and observe

See which queries fail, add synonym rules, pin results, and suppress noise. Analytics close the loop on search quality.
