Site Search Integration | Cludo, Azure and Elasticsearch

Site search that finds the right result, not just a keyword match.

Fast, accurate site search is one of the most direct ways to improve engagement and reduce friction on a website. When users can find what they need in one or two queries, retention improves, conversion rates rise, and support requests fall.

We connect AI-powered search tools, including Cludo, Azure Cognitive Search and Elasticsearch to your website or digital platform, replacing keyword-dependent results with search that understands intent and returns ranked, contextual answers.

From integrating new search solutions to optimising existing tools, we ensure your website and digital services deliver relevant, personalised and intelligent search experiences. Whether you manage a large content estate or an e-commerce platform, our search ensures your search tools drive results and align with your business goals.

Where possible, we use the latest AI and machine learning advancements to keep your search tools accurate, relevant and ready for the way your users actually search.
