Magento search bundle

Self-hosted search control without a black-box search stack.

Search Intelligence gives Magento teams one product truth for overlay, result page, zero-result recovery, redirects, merchandising and diagnostics. Discovery Filters adds indexed filters and cached facet counts. Tracking & Privacy can supply consent-aware aggregated behavior signals when installed and allowed.

Why merchants use it

Search complaints are expensive because they are hard to explain. The bundle turns search into a manageable workflow: test the query, inspect the backend and result payload, tune synonyms or rules, align filters with the same product basis, and keep privacy-sensitive behavior data under a separate consent owner.

1

Understand the query

Use catalog-grounded query handling, protected words, synonyms, corrections and knowledge packs without treating every word list as product truth.

2

Keep one result truth

Overlay, result page, toolbar totals, pagination, sorting and filter handoff should work from the same Search Intelligence product basis.

3

Recover dead ends

Managed zero-result rules and fallback lanes keep shoppers moving when an exact typed query would otherwise return nothing.

PPL Search Intelligence

The flagship search control layer for Magento-owned search operations: overlay, search result page, Test Lab, indexing, redirects, merchandising and explainable ranking.

  • Admin Test Lab for real query validation.
  • Managed redirects, merchandising and zero-result recovery.
  • MySQL flat index with optional OpenSearch and Redis routing.
Discovery Filters logo

PPL Discovery Filters

Indexed, configurable filters and cached facet counts for category and search pages, with admin control over filter layout, position, behavior and native-filter replacement.

  • Precomputed facet counts instead of request-time guesswork.
  • Color, size, category, price and availability presentation controls.
  • Optional Search Intelligence handoff for aligned counts and filters.
Compatibility note: PPL Scored Search is an alternative to PPL Search Intelligence, not a companion module. Do not enable both for the same search surface.

Filter control

Let admins configure how discovery filters appear instead of hard-coding each storefront change.

PPL Tracking and Privacy configuration

Privacy owner

Tracking remains a separate owner for consent, audit, retention, redaction and data-subject tooling.

What the bundle improves

It is designed for stores where search directly affects revenue: fashion, lifestyle, synonym-heavy catalogs, typo-heavy search boxes, seasonal terms and agencies that need explainable handover.

Relevance with control

Rank with catalog evidence, configured rules and explainable scoring instead of a hidden external ranking decision.

Better zero-result handling

Use managed alternatives, fallback products or popular content so shoppers do not hit a dead end.

Merchandising intent

Promote, demote, pin or redirect high-value terms to campaigns, categories or curated destinations.

Consistent filters

Keep result counts, active filters, pagination and toolbar totals aligned with the same product basis.

Operational diagnostics

Validate index readiness, backend routing and result payloads before relying on changes in the storefront.

Privacy separation

Search can run without behavior tracking. Optional behavior signals are aggregated by Tracking & Privacy when policy allows it.

Marketplace links

Search products

The flagship search modules are currently linked through the PPL partner profile. Scored Search has its own marketplace product page and remains the lighter standalone search alternative.
