Built to Drive Revenue, not Just Relevance

The result: better shopper experiences and higher conversion rates.

The Only Modern, Differentiated Product Discovery Platform

Enterprise Ecommerce Search & Discovery
Personalized Discovery, Optimized By Advanced AI Reasoning
Enterprise ecommerce search and product discovery is the only thing we do
Constructor delivers the best business results for the retail industry thanks to a truly different approach.
It all starts with the reasoning engine being tuned to your website specifically and ingesting the full clickstream of your website. That data is then augmented with petabytes of verified clickstream from hundreds of customers — enabling Constructor to predict which product a shopper is most likely to buy, not just which product appears most “relevant.”
The result is delivering the right products to the right person at the right time in the right context - across any discovery point, onsite or offsite.
That foundation lets us understand shopper intent on a deeper level, respond in real time, and turn every search into measurable business growth. With Constructor, you’re able to:
-
Deliver personalized results in real time across search, browse, recommendations, and every touchpoint.
-
Upgrade your discovery experience with proven, leading innovations — like adaptive interfaces and AI agents — without rebuilding your tech stack.
-
Drive measurable revenue growth with AI-powered ranking that learns continuously from real shopper behavior and product data.
-
Stay in control with intuitive merchandising tools that make curation, promotions, and overrides simple, transparent, and fast.

FAQs
-
Constructor puts a beacon directly on your site to ingest the full behavioral clickstream of your shoppers (every click, scroll, add-to-cart, and purchase) from your ecommerce site. The system is able to reason by augmenting the wealth of signals from your ecommerce site specifically with petabytes of anonymized, real, first-party and zero-party data across hundreds of other customers. The AI-driven results are ultimately a balance between elements including conversion rate, margin, diversity, and brand constraints, learning from real shopper behavior rather than abstract relevance scores.
We bring a perfect track record — having never lost an A/B test to Algolia — and we back our promises with a Proof Schedule® that delivers projected ROI in just weeks. And unlike Algolia, our white-glove support is led by dedicated ecommerce experts who focus on your KPIs, not upselling additional products. Book a demo to see our solution in action.

The result is true 1:1 personalization across search, browse, recommendations, and other touchpoints, fully aligned with your business KPIs.
You can also guide the algorithm toward strategic goals — for example, boosting new arrivals, highlighting margin-rich products, or promoting seasonal items — without losing the AI’s ability to tailor the experience for each shopper.
