Search
PULSE Search ranks results on what the shopper is deciding, not only on matching words. Keep your search engine and rerank its results, or let PULSE rank the products you pass in. Reads Vietnamese, Thai, Bahasa and English.
Two shoppers type "headphones". One is buying a gift under a budget, the other wants noise cancelling for travel. Word matching shows them the same list. PULSE Search ranks each list for the visit it belongs to, and reads the rest of the query too: a price limit, who it is for, the occasion, whether it is urgent.
Who it is for: any storefront with a search box, whether you keep your current engine or not.
Three ways in
| You have | Call | What it does |
|---|---|---|
| A search engine you are keeping | POST /rerank | Reorders the results it already returned. The lightest way in |
| Products in hand, no engine | POST /search | Ranks the products you pass, against the session |
| A search box | POST /suggest | Query suggestions scored on the session. Free, since it fires on every keystroke |

What you get back
Every result carries its score breakdown: fit to the session, quality, text match, price, and, when you send return history, how often it stays bought. What a score is made of.
Counts toward usage: yes for /search and /rerank; /suggest is free.
Decision API
The PULSE Decision API reads an anonymous visit as it happens and says what the shopper is shopping for, so every ranking call that follows is personal from the first click.
Recommendations
PULSE Recommendations rank a strip against the visit happening now, so a first-time shopper gets relevant picks without any purchase history. One call, alongside the page it sits on.
