Search Match for Vespa

Find which saved searches match a document in your Vespa application.

Search Match is a percolator for Vespa: it starts with a document and finds the saved searches it satisfies. This reverses the usual search flow, where a query finds documents.

Put saved searches to work

When people save what they are looking for, a new product or listing may be just what they want. Search Match identifies which saved searches that document matches.

Your application can use those matches to show relevant content or trigger its own workflows. It retains control of permissions, notification timing and delivery channels.

Where it can help

Saved product searches

A shopper saves a category and a price range. When a product meets those criteria, your application can surface it in their saved results or use the match to send an alert.

New listing alerts

Connect new property, job or marketplace listings with the searches people have already saved, so they can discover relevant opportunities as your catalogue grows.

Internal watchlists

Teams can define the records they want to follow. Matches can feed an existing review queue, route a record to the right team or support another application workflow.

Bring your saved-search use case

Bring sample documents, saved-search criteria and examples of the matches you expect. We assess compatibility with your data and application, and agree how the results would fit your workflow before integration.
