Let’s be honest: default WordPress search is basic. It looks for exact keyword matches and ignores context. If a reader searches for “healthy breakfast” and your post is titled “Morning Nutritious Meals,” they might see nothing.
We’ve upgraded our ElasticSearch Add-on to change that. By integrating vector-based search and Natural Language Processing, we’re moving beyond keywords to semantic understanding. This means your website finally understands what your readers are actually looking for, even if they don’t use the exact words.
#Bringing AI-powered Search to Your Site
For years, Presslabs has offered ElasticSearch to help high-traffic sites handle heavy query loads and improve performance. It’s always been fast and reliable, but the “intelligence” of the search was limited to how well you tagged your content.
This upgrade changes the game. By tapping into Elastic’s AI ecosystem, we are shifting from a keyword engine to a Search AI platform.
#What This Means for Your Site
Whether you’re a news publisher with a massive archive or an e-commerce store with a complex catalog, this upgrade directly impacts your bottom line:
- Boost Engagement: Readers stay longer when they actually find what they’re looking for.
- Automatic Discoverability: You no longer need to rely solely on manual tagging or perfect taxonomies. The AI recognizes the relationship between topics automatically.
- Future-Proofing: As users get used to AI-driven experiences elsewhere, they expect the same level of intuition from your site’s search bar.
#We Handle the Heavy Lifting
We know you have a business to run, so we’ve made the transition to AI search as seamless as possible. You don’t need to be a developer or a data scientist to get this working.
- The Key: All you need to do is obtain an OpenAI API key.
- The Implementation: Our engineers take it from there (just email us). We manage the infrastructure, the configuration, and the deployment.

#Don’t Let Good Content Go Unfound
If your site has thousands of articles, you can’t expect manual tags to do all the heavy lifting. This upgrade turns your search bar from a basic tool into a smart discovery engine. We’re excited to see how this helps our clients grow their engagement and make their content work harder for them.
