Ecommerce search without the ops project
Managed SaaS with drop-in connectors — not a DIY API integration. AI ranking, merchandising, analytics, recommendations, and an agent-ready MCP endpoint on every paid plan.
- Typo-tolerant AI catalog and content search.
- Self-tuning relevance from click telemetry.
- Synonyms, pins, banners, A/B tests, and zero-result rescue.
Technical setup
This page covers the product and SEO story. First-party install guides and custom-connector API docs (for platforms we do not ship) live in the developer docs.
SaaS vs plugin-only vs DIY Algolia
Three common paths: annual WordPress plugins that keep search on your server, Shopify-only apps that price on GMV, and API vendors like Algolia that require you to build and maintain index pipelines yourself.
Seekmodo is managed multi-tenant SaaS — connectors handle sync, signing, fallback, and storefront widgets while the gateway serves queries, learns from clicks, and exposes MCP for agents.

Pricing summary
Public tiers from Hobby ($29/mo) through Scale ($999/mo) — billed on search volume, not revenue or keystrokes. Every plan starts with a 14-day trial and uncapped searches during the trial. Full ladder at /pricing; side-by-side vendor math at /pricing/calculator.
Platform coverage
Zen Cart, WordPress, WooCommerce, BigCommerce, MediaWiki, and Magento ship today. Shopify is on the roadmap — join early access at /plugins/shopify. Open-source CMS depth is the structural differentiator vs Shopify-app-only vendors.
Compare before you switch
High-intent buyers compare vendors before committing. Our footnoted comparison pages cover Doofinder (per-keystroke metering), Klevu (quote-based entry tiers), Clerk.io (calculator quotes and auto-upgrade rules), and Algolia (DIY API vs managed connectors).
Implementation time
Most merchants pair a connector and see improved results within a day — install, index, shadow mode, then active. Enterprise catalogs with custom attributes may need field mapping in the admin console; support is available at [email protected].
Frequently asked questions
How long does implementation take?
Install and pair typically take under an hour. Full catalog indexing depends on catalog size — most stores complete the first index within a few hours.
Where is data hosted?
Seekmodo operates US and EU regions. Configure tenant region from the operator console — see /docs/regions.
Is there an SLA?
Production gateway availability is monitored at status.seekmodo.com. Enterprise SLAs are available on request — contact sales.
How does Seekmodo compare to Doofinder?
Doofinder meters keystrokes and AI turns separately; Seekmodo meters search submissions. See /compare/doofinder for footnoted pricing math.
Does Seekmodo replace my ESP?
No — Seekmodo focuses on search and recommendations and forwards events to your existing email platform. Clerk.io bundles email; we do not.
