Coverage counts what each App Store listing names. Every feature, checked off app by app, is in Shoplist.
See every featureRyzo turns product discovery into a few taps. Shoppers upload or snap a photo to find visually similar products, or type a query and let AI-powered search understand what they mean — even with typos or vague wording. Smart filters adapt to each search so shoppers refine by what matters. Click any product to surface similar items and recommendations.
Shopify's default search only finds products when customers type exact keywords. When shoppers search naturally, like "something for dry patches on my face" or "gift for someone who loves cooking," they get no results and leave. Understnd replaces keyword matching with AI that reads customer intent. It matches searches to relevant products based on meaning, not just words. Setup takes minutes.
