Objective is a modern, composable, search platform that understands your dataset, and understands what your users mean. Every app is becoming a search app, and every company needs a powerful engine for creating great user experiences.

AI-native search is the end-to-end integration of the best of search, paired with modern developer ergonomics, and a layer of intelligence that helps your business optimize for your goals.

“You can only do so much with manual tagging and scrubbing of results. Implementing semantic search in-house was taking very long. We saw a demo of Objective Search and it was night and day!”

The search copilot you never knew was possible. Objective watches your user’s search queries and finds optimizations based on your goals.

“yellow rain coat”
in Multimodal Index idx_cFSueLlzKhK2

COPILOT:
The product description ('detail_desc') indicates that the coat is unlined and in a felted weave which does not match the typical characteristics of a rain coat, which is typically lined and made from a waterproof or water-resistant material.

COPILOT:
The search result is not related to the user's query of 'yellow rain coat' intended for human use. Despite the color and raincoat functionality matching, the product is specifically a 'dog coat' as stated in the product name and detail description.
