Why do people want this product? If I use the demo search on their homepage, theres several annoyances on mobile that made me nope out.
Is it because backend free form search queries are hard? or do people use this primarily for the frontend quality?
Edited for typo.
Because it gets customers to the product they want faster than anything else in e-commerce. Selling shoes or something online? Algolia will earn back its cost in conversion.
It was an honest question, I’ve read a bunch about it now and have no idea why you would want to pay so much for this. Is it the typo handling? Is there really no straightforward free search tech out there?
