Short answer

How can I use my AI to improve search results?

You send real-time user actions like clicks and purchases to your Fusion models. This allows your agent to feed behavioral data into the ranking logic. You'll see how these signals change your search relevance.

The outcomes

Where your data goes

The signals you send change how your search engine behaves.

RELEVANCE

Better search results

The AI pushes click data to Fusion. This moves the items users actually want to the top of the list.

AUTOMATION

Hands-off tuning

The models update based on the signals your agent sends. You don't have to manually adjust weights for every new trend.

INSIGHT

Clearer intent patterns

Your agent identifies which searches lead to sales. This shows you the direct link between queries and conversions.

HUMAN

Manual control

The AI handles the signal transmission. You still own the high-level business rules and final ranking logic.

The workflow

What your AI does when the signal arrives.

Your agent acts as the bridge between live user traffic and your search engine.

  1. Capture activity

    The agent identifies specific user actions like clicks or successful checkouts.
