In today’s fast-paced digital world, one of the biggest challenges for eCommerce businesses is helping customers quickly and effortlessly find what they’re looking for. While everyone agrees this is crucial, actually achieving it is much easier said than done.

That’s where Clerk.io comes in.

With its intelligent, cookie-free Search tool, Clerk.io transforms your webshop into a smarter, more intuitive experience—guiding customers to exactly what they want, even when they don’t search perfectly.

The Problem with Most eCommerce Search Tools

Let’s be honest: most search engines used in online stores are outdated.

  • They show out-of-stock products.
  • They miss seasonal relevance.
  • They fail when users misspell words or use synonyms.
  • And worst of all, they often show no results at all.

This leads to lost conversions—73% of customers leave a site if they can’t find what they want instantly.

Meet Clerk.io: Your Robotic Sales Assistant

Imagine a search assistant that doesn’t need training, instantly understands your product catalog, and shows accurate, seasonally relevant results—even if the customer types “huke sokz.”

That’s exactly what Clerk.io Search does.

Built specifically for eCommerce, it starts working from day one and continues to evolve with your store. Unlike basic engines that reflect past data, Clerk.io predicts what will sell next.

Why It’s Better: Real Results, Real Growth

Retailers using Clerk.io have seen search conversion rates reach up to 11%—far above the industry average of 3%. That’s the power of a tool designed with eCommerce in mind.

Here’s how it works:

  • Analyzes historic customer behavior from your first order onward.
  • Updates in real-time based on sales trends and seasonal context.
  • Understands customer intent—even with typos, long queries, or synonyms.
  • Adjusts results dynamically (e.g., showing warm jackets in winter and light ones in summer).

Core Features

Clerk.io Search is made up of three key components:

  1. Instant Search – Predictive results shown while typing.
  2. Search Page – A full-page list of results for any query.
  3. Dynamic Filters – Powerful, flexible filters to help customers explore.

It connects not only with your products, but also your categories and content pages to deliver a complete and relevant search experience.

Privacy-First: No Cookies Required

Clerk.io is the first AI-powered eCommerce search that works without cookies or user tracking. That means your customers get a personalized experience without compromising their privacy—a major win in today’s digital landscape.

Insights, Merchandising & Synonyms

Need to boost higher-margin products when people search for "shoes"? Use Merchandising.

Have customers searching for "trousers" when your site says "pants"? Add a Synonym—problem solved.

You can even map fun mismatches. Only sell coconuts? Show them when someone searches for “horse.” Why not?

Clerk.io is powered by a lightning-fast API and the Clerk.js library.

Set up in four steps:

  1. Sync your data
