Ultrafast Search

PrestaShop search with results in under 50 ms

Ultrafast Search replaces your shop's default search with a hosted search engine built on Meilisearch. Customers see matching products as they type, in a layout that suits your theme, and you see what they are looking for. We run the search servers, so there is nothing to set up on your hosting beyond the module.

Works with PrestaShop 1.7, 8.x and 9.x

What Ultrafast Search does

Built only for PrestaShop, not adapted from another platform: every feature, hook and template is made for shops on 1.7, 8.x and 9.x.

Fast results

Results in under 50 ms on average, even on catalogues of more than 10,000 products.
Three cache layers (search cache, AI cache and cache warming) bring repeat searches back in milliseconds.
Product images in the results are converted to WebP and AVIF automatically.

Results that fit your shop

5 display modes: dropdown, compact, title match, overlay, and a complex overlay with category filters, brand facets and a product grid.
Optional AI semantic search that understands queries written in natural language (it uses your own OpenAI API key).
Separate indexes for each shop and language, for multi-shop and multilingual stores.

Always in sync with your catalogue

Product changes reach the search as they happen, through PrestaShop hooks or a batch queue.
A priority queue that removes duplicates copes with bulk imports and large catalogue changes.
Stock and price updates go through straight away.

Analytics and promotions

See what customers search for, what they click, what they add to the cart and the revenue that follows.
Pin products to the top or boost their ranking for specific searches.

Hosted for you

No search server to install, configure or maintain: we handle updates, scaling and uptime.
Product data is stored on managed infrastructure in the EU.
Only the product information needed for search is indexed. No customer personal data is sent.

Simple pricing, no per-search charges

Every plan includes all features, the hosting and updates.
You pay a flat rate, however many searches your shop gets.

Five ways to show results

Choose the search experience that suits your store's design, from a subtle dropdown under the search box to a full-screen overlay with category filters. Every mode is built in and ready to use.

Dropdown and compact lists for a light touch
Title match for shops where customers search by product name
Overlay and complex overlay with a product grid, category filters and brand facets for large catalogues

Ultrafast Search overlay mode: the query leather jacket shows a grid of six products with prices over the shop page

Who it is for

PrestaShop's default search runs on the shop's own database. It is slow, often inaccurate, and a customer who cannot find a product leaves. Ultrafast Search is for merchants who want search to work as a sales tool, without running a search server of their own.

Shops where many customers go straight to the search box
Large catalogues that need category and brand filters in the results
Multi-shop and multilingual stores
Agencies that want a search they can install for clients in minutes
