Short answer

How can I use AI to test my search results?

Your agent uses Doofinder tools to simulate customer searches, apply specific filters, and change sort orders. You get a direct view of the product list returned for any given query or configuration.

Testing outcomes.

Where your findings land.

The AI translates your testing requests into live search queries.

LOGIC

Verify keyword relevance

The AI checks if specific terms pull the right products. You'll see if your synonyms or typos are working as intended.

FILTERS

Test filter accuracy

Your agent applies specific attributes like size or color. This confirms that your facets aren't hiding products they should show.

SORTING

Check sort order

The AI verifies that price, popularity, or newest items appear in the correct sequence. You'll catch logic errors in your ranking.

HUMAN

Manual adjustments

The AI identifies the results, but you decide how to fix the underlying search rules in your Doofinder dashboard.

The workflow

What your AI does when the request arrives.

Your agent acts as a virtual shopper to probe your search engine.

  2. Apply constraints

    It narrows down the product list using your existing storefront filters.

    search_filtered

  3. Reorder results

    The agent tests how different sorting rules change the product display.
