bounce rate reduction seen on mobile after implementing intelligent filtering and search.
If shoppers can’t find what they want fast, they don’t hang around — they bail. Shopify’s basic filters choke on real catalogs, and every frustrated exit is revenue slipping into your competitor’s cart.
Rapid Search rips out Shopify’s default filters and replaces them with a powerful engine built for one thing: growing your sales. Doesn't matter if you’ve got 50 SKUs or 50,000, we guide every shopper straight to the buy button.
Go beyond basic tags. Build powerful, intuitive filter trees from any product data you can imagine. Including metafields, variants, vendors, price, and even inventory levels. If the data exists in your store, you can build a filter for it.
Your filters should look like your brand, not ours. Customize every pixel, from color swatches and price sliders to the layout and fonts. Seamless integration with your theme creates a professional experience that builds trust.
Your navigation is now a conversion tool. Create specific filter menus for high-value collections. Strategically promote products within filtered results, and use our analytics to see exactly how shoppers are searching. It's time to stop guessing and start optimizing.
"This app is wonderful. The staff are a pleasure to work with. Woyong is great at helping and got everything I wanted done. The app itself works great and is easy to set up as far as the search filters. Looks great. Five stars! 10/10 I’d recommend always!."
-The Cave
Every option is under your control. Build the filters you always wanted but Shopify never let you build — and turn them into a sales advantage.
Two types of shoppers hit your store: the ones who know exactly what they want, and the ones who don’t. Shopify’s filters lose both. Rapid Search wins both — creating a profitable path for every shopper who walks through your digital doors
This shopper has a specific item in mind and wants to find it. They use multiple filters at once—like size, color, and brand—to zero in on the perfect product. Our app makes this multi-filter experience instant and accurate, letting them bypass irrelevant items and head straight to checkout.

This visitor starts with a broad idea, like "summer outfits" or "gifts for the home." Our intuitive visual filters, like clickable color swatches and easy-to-use price sliders, empower them to explore your catalog playfully and turn their vague idea into a confident purchase.
This customer is on a mission. Whether they know an exact part number like 'SKU-1138' or just a fragment like 'run sh,' our engine delivers the precise result instantly. We remove all friction for your most high-intent buyers, including B2B clients, getting them to the cart faster.
This shopper is just exploring with an imprecise idea like 'dresses for a summer wedding.' Our AI looks beyond keywords to understand the concept and show your most relevant products. We never show a dead end; instead, we offer smart alternatives and popular items, turning a potential dead end into a new discovery.
Yes. We specialize in complexity. Rapid Search was built to handle large, technical catalogs with tens of thousands of products, variants, and unique metafields. Our system indexes all your data so you can build robust filters that Shopify's native app simply cannot support.
As little as you want. The app works instantly with smart defaults, and our no-code dashboard makes customization easy. If you're short on time, our team offers a free, white-glove setup to get you started.
Shopify's built-in 'Search & Discovery' app is a starting point, but it can’t keep up with the demands of a growing brand. Its rigid structure and lack of true metafield support create a ceiling for your store's potential.
Think of Shopify's default search as a starting point, not a growth tool. It relies on simple keyword matching, much like a GPS from 2010—type in anything slightly wrong, and it drives customers into a dead end.This leads to irrelevant results and frustrating "0 results found" pages. With 68% of customers leaving for good after such an experience, you're missing sales and losing repeat buyers. Without any meaningful analytics or merchandising controls, you’re simply flying blind.
Rapid Search is the search upgrade Shopify should have built. An AI‑powered engine that knows what customers mean, captures sales Shopify loses, and boosts conversions by 2x–6x. With total control over visibility and insights that actually grow revenue, it turns your search bar into a money‑printing machin

Shopify Search & Discovery
User Ratings
4.8/5 average (95%+ 5★ reviews). Trusted by thousands of stores to boost conversions.
4.1/5 average (with many 1★ reviews). Frequent complaints about bugs & limitations.
Ease of Use
Plug-and-play setup. No coding. Seamless with any theme. Intuitive from day one.
Basic install is easy — but advanced setup is clunky. Customizing per collection is limited or not possible.
Performance
Blazing fast, even with 1M+ products. Lightweight 17KB app doesn’t slow your store.
Works fine for small stores — but lags, crashes, and filter queries are capped at 100 results.
Reliability
Rock-solid performance. Runs for years with no downtime. Fast bug fixes.
Filters often break on large catalogs. SKU search can stop working after updates. Reliability is inconsistent.
Feature Set
Feature-packed: AI autocomplete, typo tolerance, synonym groups, unlimited filters, smart suggestions, upsells, analytics & more — even on lower plans.
Basic: limited filters, simple synonyms, basic boosts. No smart suggestions. Strict feature caps like 25 total filters.
Customization
Full control over styling and logic: customize search bar, filter groups, hide/pin products, layout options, CSS-friendly.
Very limited. Uses default Shopify layout. Can’t customize search logic or filter display hierarchy.
Support Quality
Excellent, human support. Fast, personalized help with setup, bugs, and even custom tweaks. Proactive and multilingual.
Generic Shopify support. No dedicated app team. Users often report delays or unresolved issues.
AI
Advanced AI-powered features: real-time autocomplete with rich visuals, typo correction, synonym matching, semantic intent detection, dynamic personalization, AI-based product recommendations, and multilingual support.
Covers the basics: predictive search, limited typo handling, manual synonym groups, and some semantic understanding. Product recommendations exist, but lack real-time personalization or advanced AI tuning.
"This is possibly the best search app on Shopify. The app works as described, definitely much and much better than Shopify native search as it always gives relevant search results even with typos.

Absolutely. This is a key feature called hierarchical filtering. For example, a customer can select a 'Brand', and the 'Model' filter will instantly update to show only models from that brand.
Positively. We create clean, canonicalized URLs for filtered pages, which helps prevent duplicate content issues with search engines and can even boost organic traffic for long-tail keywords.
