A search bar that discerns.

Cerno — from the Latin cernere, to sift and decide — routes every query to the right kind of search. Exact matches stay instant. Fuzzy intent gets understood.

The bar decides. Not the customer.

    Two tiers, one bar

    Exact queries get instant keyword results from a regional index. Vague or conversational queries fall through to semantic search over embeddings. The customer never picks a mode — Cerno decides per query.

    Feels native, not bolted on

    No chat bubble, no sparkles icon, no waiting on a stream. The widget behaves like the search your customers already know. It just misses less.

    Your rules on top

    Boost products, hide products, pin results for a query. Merchandising decisions stay yours; the model works inside them.

    Indexing that keeps up

    Catalog changes sync automatically. New products are searchable in minutes, not after a nightly rebuild.
