How ParticleSearch turns your catalog into a search experience that works.
ParticleSearch connects the storefront experience with the evidence and controls behind it. Shoppers get a clearer path to products, while merchants get a practical way to see what needs attention.
The short version
Connect the store, make the catalog usable, help shoppers discover products, review the evidence, and improve one behaviour at a time.
The merchant loop
A search system is useful when every stage leads to a decision.
The product is not a black box between install and checkout. Each stage gives your team a different way to understand and improve discovery.
Connect
Start with the store you already have.
Install through Shopify, choose the storefront experience you want to use, and let the product establish a view of your catalog.
Prepare
Make product information usable for search.
Product fields, variants, identifiers, availability, and visibility become part of the reviewable search experience instead of disappearing into a generic result list.
Search
Give shoppers more than one way to find a product.
Search suggestions, results, filters, content, quick actions, and recommendations meet shoppers at different stages of their decision.
Review
See where discovery helps or breaks.
The dashboard brings together search activity, health, product readiness, query evidence, fixes, and revenue context so a team can choose what to investigate.
Publish safely
Verify the change before it becomes live.
Compare the draft with live search, keep publish blocked while verification is incomplete, and confirm runtime health and configuration sync after release.
Improve
Change the smallest thing that solves the problem.
Use a query tool, synonym, redirect, ranking change, merchandising rule, or experiment when that is the right fit, then return to the same evidence and protected queries.
What happens after install
The experience gets more useful as you learn from the store.
ParticleSearch is designed to give a merchant a starting point, then a way to keep improving the experience as real search behaviour accumulates.
At the storefront
Search feels like a path, not a dead end.
Suggestions, filters, product actions, content, and recommendations give shoppers more than one useful next move.
In the dashboard
Search behaviour becomes something you can investigate.
Start with a query, product, health signal, or readiness issue, then follow the evidence to the smallest useful change.
For the team
Changes remain explainable.
Focused query controls, merchandising, protected queries, and experiments make it easier to say what changed and why.
Explore the product
Seven surfaces, one operating picture.
Storefront search
Search, filters, product actions, and discovery.
Semantic search
Broader language with exact-intent guardrails.
Content search
Pages and articles beside the product path.
Personalized discovery
Optional context for exploratory browsing.
Enterprise search
Custom capacity, access, rollout, and support.
Search quality
The product and language boundary behind a result.
Search analytics
Signals, health, readiness, fixes, and outcomes.
Catalog health
Freshness, coverage, deployment, and recovery.
Search Autopilot
Evidence-backed monitoring with merchant review.
Search impact
Shopper actions, experiments, and order context.
Merchant controls
Focused changes with preview and review.
Recommendations
Useful next steps after the first result.
International search

Publish safety
Verified drafts, runtime sync, and protected queries.
Setup should feel like starting a product, not a project.
Connect the app, approve billing, let catalogue preparation run, and verify a live search experience when the store is ready—without manual theme-code work. If a check does not pass, support can help route the next step.
3 steps
Shopify authorization
Connect ParticleSearch through the standard Shopify app flow.
Catalogue indexing
Searchable product data is prepared from the merchant catalogue.
Storefront activation
Search becomes available to shoppers after the storefront experience is activated.
What you get
Once search is live, review demand, ignored results, and catalogue sync states from the dashboard instead of guessing how storefront search is performing.
Theme-aware integration
The storefront uses Shopify's app-embed delivery path across supported themes.
Search-focused access
Requests the Shopify permissions required for the configured capabilities.
Automatic sync pipeline
Catalogue indexing starts after approval, with health checks for current state and freshness.
End state
Search infrastructure the merchant can trust.
The install path is short and reversible.
Initial catalogue time depends on store size, but the install path stays short and reversible.
A practical rhythm
Keep the loop small enough to learn from.
Observe
Start with a query, a product, a collection, or a storefront symptom.
Diagnose
Separate product data, language, visibility, and ranking problems.
Change
Choose one bounded intervention and keep its scope clear.
Verify
Run the same check again and decide whether to keep learning from it.
See it on your store
Start with a better search experience, then keep learning.
Install ParticleSearch and give your team a clear path from shopper intent to an improvement you can explain.
