Serving Search Results

Retail Cloud Connect enables major ecommerce platforms to return search results from Google Cloud's AI Commerce Search.

When a shopper enters a keyword or phrase into the storefront search bar, Google Cloud returns search results sorted by relevance and revenue maximization. It uses hundreds of data points to sort search results based on relevance, popularity, and personalization - ultimately positioning products with the highest likelihood of being bought.

By default, a reasonable number of results ordered by relevance is returned, but the AI models will continue to optimize this over time.

Retail Cloud Connect does not cache personalized shopper results, which prevents personalized results from being delivered to a different shopper.

Testing Search Results

Merchants can preview search results and confirm settings from the Evaluate tab in the Google Cloud Retail console.
