What changes when it is e-commerce
Your search logs already tell you what is broken. The zero-result queries and the searches followed immediately by abandonment are the entire brief.
In e-commerce, every change must be justified by a controlled experiment against revenue. That single fact reshapes how ai search implementation has to be built here, the guardrails, the approval points and the evidence trail are design inputs rather than things bolted on before go-live.
The workload we are most often asked to take on first is search relevance, usually integrated against payment gateways. We start from the constraint, not the capability, what the system must never do, who signs off, and what happens when it is wrong.
Built by engineers who ship production systems, not by a practice that subcontracts the build. We hand over with runbooks, tests and a team that knows how it works, not a dependency.

Questions from this sector
How quickly can we see conversion impact?
Search and recommendation changes usually show within two to four weeks of experiment traffic, assuming enough volume to reach significance.
Can you fix our catalogue data?
Yes, attribute extraction from images and descriptions, plus deduplication. Catalogue quality quietly limits both search and recommendations.
Will semantic search replace keyword search?
No, hybrid beats either alone. Keyword handles exact codes and names precisely; semantic handles intent and paraphrase. Used together they cover each other's weaknesses.
How do you measure relevance?
A judged query set from your real search logs, scored before and after. That makes improvement a number rather than an opinion.
Can it search across multiple systems?
Yes, federated retrieval across your catalogue, documentation and support content, with permissions respected per source.
