When a shopper begins typing “dress” into the Experro search bar, Autocomplete springs into action—instantly offering relevant suggestions across all scopes: search keywords, product categories, and content pages. Below, we’ll walk through how Experro generates those suggestions and highlight common “dress” completions like “polyester dress,” “women’s dress,” and “spandex dress,” as well as matching category and content page links.

​
How Autocomplete Works Across Scopes

  1. Real-Time Prefix Matching
    As each character is entered, Experro matches the growing prefix against its indexed terms (keywords, category names, and content titles) with typo tolerance. For example, typing “dress” surfaces “polyester dress,” “women’s dress,” and “spandex dress” products, plus category suggestions like “Dresses” and content pages such as “Enchanting Elegance: A Guide to Evening Gowns & Party Dresses.”
  2. AI-Driven Intent Recognition
    Beyond literal prefixes, Experro’s Gen-AI models predict the most likely next words by understanding shopper context. Since “dress” is high-traffic, the engine knows users often follow it with qualifiers (“polyester” “spandex” “women’s”), and will surface matching category pages or how-to articles (e.g., “Enchanting Elegance: A Guide to Evening Gowns & Party Dresses.”).
  3. Popularity & Performance Boosting
    Suggestions are ranked by a blend of global popularity (how often each term or page is used) and performance signals (click-through and conversion rates). If the “Plus Size” category drives high engagement, it will rise above less-popular variants, whether product or content.
  4. Personalization Layer
    For returning or logged-in users, Experro hones suggestions based on past behavior—surfacing “women’s dress” products for dress enthusiasts, “popular dresses” category for frequent buyers, or a recently read blog post for content-focused shoppers.
  5. Configurable Rules
    Merchants can manually boost, bury, or suppress specific terms, categories, or pages. If a new “Traditional Dress” collection is launching, adding it as a Boost Term will pin it at the top of all “dress” suggestions—across products, categories, and content pages.
By blending real-time prefix matching, advanced intent understanding, performance signals, and flexible rule controls, Experro Autocomplete turns each keystroke into a rich, multi-scope discovery moment—so every shopper finds the exact product, category, or content they need.
