Search stays search, the AI only translates.

Free-text queries such as "red trousers in XS under 80 euros" are translated into a structured search order - category, colour, size, price, sorting - which then runs against Shopware's classic search index. No chatbot, no invented prices, every hit traceable.

The approach

No chatbot, a translator.

Most AI searches answer by themselves - and invent prices, availability and sometimes whole products along the way. Here the AI does exactly one thing: it understands what the customer means and turns that into a search order. The search itself runs as it always did.

Translate

Sentence becomes search order

"Trousers in red and T-shirts in blue, all in size XS" becomes two separate search orders with category, colour and size. You decide how many product types one query may be split into.

Traceable

The "understood as" bar

The search page shows how the query was understood. Every building block can be removed with a click, so the customer corrects the search instead of retyping it.

Fallback

It keeps working without AI

If the provider fails or the answer takes too long, keyword recognition detects colour, size, price and sorting without AI. The search never stops.

Four search modes

From off to always

Classic only, AI from two words, automatic, or always AI. You decide when a call happens at all.

Live search

The modal across the whole page.

Instead of the narrow suggestion list, a full-width panel opens with its own search field and a softly blurred background. The Shopware standard remains available.

Presentation

Product boxes as in the listing, or a compact list with image, name and price. The boxes follow the shopping experience layouts - standard with buy button, minimal, large image or compact. Products per row are set separately for desktop, tablet and phone.

On focus

The panel can open before the first keystroke, with your own suggestions and products in the chosen order. Optionally the popular searches from your own log, with an exclusion list for terms that do not belong there.

Loading more

Scrolling loads further hits, up to 120 products. A back-to-top button returns to the start.

Costs under control

One small call per search, capped.

One call to a fast model costs a fraction of a cent. To make sure that never turns into a surprise, the plugin brings several brakes.

Limits

A daily limit for AI calls, after which the search continues with keyword recognition until midnight. Plus a per-visitor limit within ten minutes, counting the search page and the live search together.

Bots

Search engines, crawlers and scripts get keyword recognition and cause no costs.

Cache

Identical queries are answered for a configurable number of hours without a new call. The overview shows how many searches were served that way.

Cost estimate

Enter the price per million tokens your provider charges and the overview converts consumption into euros.

Measure and improve

You see what people search for.

The search log records every search, classic ones included. That gives you a picture of what your customers actually type - and where your range fails to answer.

Overview

Searches of the last 30 days, split into AI-translated, keyword-detected and served from cache. Plus average duration, queries without hits and AI failures with fallback.

Clicks

Optionally it is recorded whether a result was clicked: click rate, click position and searches without any click. The latter are usually more revealing than those without hits.

Synonyms

If your customer says "slacks" and your shop says "trousers", you create a rule. Synonyms are kept as a table with a test, and a rule can be created straight from the list of searches without hits.

Search test and batch test

Single queries are checked in the search test - with and without AI, per sales channel. The batch test takes up to 50 queries at once and shows how many of them return hits.

Technical

What it needs, what it costs.

One package for Shopware 6.6 and 6.7. Every setting can be made per sales channel; otherwise a channel inherits the default values.

AI provider

Provider, model, key and time limit are yours to set - the key stays in your shop. The fast, inexpensive models are recommended; larger ones bring little benefit here. Without a provider only keyword recognition runs.

Frequently asked

Frequently asked questions about the AI product search

Does the AI invent products or prices?

No. It only formulates the search order; the search runs on the Shopware index. What is not in the shop cannot appear.

What if the AI provider fails?

Then keyword recognition takes over colour, size, price and sorting. The search keeps working, just less precisely.

Do I need my own key?

Yes. You choose the provider and model yourself and store your own key. Costs and data stay with you.

What are the running costs?

One small call per search. With the cache, a daily limit, a per-visitor limit and bot exclusion this can be kept tight.

Does it run on Shopware 6.6?

Yes. Tested from 6.6.0 to 6.6.10 and on 6.7.

Do settings apply to all channels?

By default yes. Each channel can have its own values and can be reset to the default at any time.
