EHERO Smart Search – AI-powered search for WooCommerce that understands your customers

AI Search for WooCommerce: find what your customer wants, even if they don’t know what it’s called

The AI search for WooCommerce from EHERO Smart Search is not just another search box. WooCommerce’s native search is literal: it only finds exact matches in the title. If a customer searches for “red sports t-shirt” and you have it listed as “scarlet sports jersey,” it won’t find it and they’ll go to the competition.

This AI search for WooCommerce understands the intent of each query: synonyms, concepts, and natural language. It combines semantic search with artificial intelligence and keyword search in a single hybrid engine, so every search ends in a relevant result… and a sale.

Everything runs inside your own WordPress, with no mandatory external services and your data under control (GDPR). And if you want to go further, connect it with the rest of the EHERO ecosystem for your store.

Semantic search with artificial intelligence

The core of the plugin is a search that understands meanings, not just letters. It generates embeddings for each product and compares the customer’s intent with your entire catalog.

• Understands synonyms and concepts: “laptop” finds “laptop,” “notebook,” and “computer.”
• Understands natural language and long queries.
• Indexes title, description, attributes, categories, brands, tags, and reviews.

Configurable hybrid engine (AI + keywords)

You decide the weight of each engine. The AI search for WooCommerce blends semantic relevance and exact matching so it never misses.

• Adjustable weights (default 70% AI + 30% keywords).
• Exact SKU search with direct redirect to the product.
• Keyword-only mode available if you don’t want to use AI.

Typo tolerance and sector-specific synonyms

A customer making a typo shouldn’t cost you a sale. Smart Search corrects and suggests automatically.

• Typo correction and “did you mean”.
• 10 synonym packs by sector (fashion, electronics, beauty, food, home, and more).
• Natural-language price filters: “under 50”, “between 20 and 40”.

Live results that sell

Instant results while the customer types, with everything they need to decide.

• Image, price, stock, and star rating.
• “Sale” and “New” badges and exact variation detection.
• “Add to cart” button from the result itself and a “You may also be interested in” block.

Voice search, facets, and filters

A modern, fast experience, especially on mobile.

• Voice search (Web Speech API).
• Faceted filters: category with counter, price range, in stock only.
• Recent and popular searches, and highlighting of the searched term.

Term-based merchandising

Turn your search into a marketing tool: you control the results.

• Pin products to the top for specific terms.
• Promotional banners and redirects by word (shipping, returns, contact…).
• Boost featured items, offers, and top-rated products.

Search analytics with sales attribution

The AI search for WooCommerce tells you what your customers search for, what they click, and what they buy.

• Dashboard with KPIs: searches, CTR, zero-results rate, and attributed revenue.
• Comparison with the previous period, email report, and export to Excel and PDF.
• Searches with no results become ideas for catalog and merchandising.

Integrated SEO

Search also works for your rankings.

• SearchAction schema (Google search box / Sitelinks Searchbox).
• Friendly URLs and indexable results pages (optional).
• 301 redirect when the search matches a product or SKU.

Multilingual and integrations

Adapts to your current website without friction.

• Compatible with WPML and Polylang (indexes and searches in the active language).
• Shortcode, Gutenberg block, Elementor widget, and Bricks Builder element.
• 4 layouts (dropdown, overlay, grid, compact) and 4 customizable themes.

Flexible AI and privacy

You choose the AI engine and keep control of your data.

• Ready-to-use EHERO AI mode, your own key (OpenAI, Claude, Gemini, Groq, Mistral…) or a local model (Ollama / LM Studio).
• Indexing runs from your server; IPs are stored hashed (GDPR).
• WCAG accessibility (ARIA, keyboard), result caching, and lightweight JavaScript without jQuery.

Full-screen mode: a discovery experience

Turn search into a full-screen search experience on par with major stores.

• Discovery before typing: recent searches, store popular searches, and a grid of new items with price and add to cart.
• Filters as removable tags, sidebar (categories, attributes, price, stock), and result counter.
• Sort by relevance, price, or newest, and infinite scroll that loads more results automatically.
• Cmd/Ctrl + K shortcut to open search from any page and a sliding filter panel on mobile.
