How to Add AI-Powered Search to Your Marketplace with Tradly AI Search

Tradly AI Search uses advanced semantic understanding to interpret user intent — not just exact words. Customers can find relevant products even when their queries are vague, incomplete, or phrased differently. Instead of forcing users to guess the right keywords, your platform adapts to how people naturally search.

As users start typing, AI-powered suggestions appear instantly — wide, intent-aware recommendations that go far beyond simple keyword autocomplete. It feels less like a search bar and more like a knowledgeable assistant.
