Your customers can't always describe what they want — but they can always show you.
A shopper sees a product in a friend's house, on Pinterest, in a store window. They photograph it, paste it or drop it into your search bar — and ModKor Visual Search returns your closest matching products in about a second. It's the search experience Google Lens and Pinterest taught everyone to expect, running entirely on your server.
Zero per-search fees — the difference you can bank
- Visual-search SaaS (Syte, ViSenze, Nosto) charges hundreds per month plus per-query fees, forever
- ModKor Visual Search ships a self-hosted AI embedding engine (open-source CLIP, CPU-only — no GPU) — one license, unlimited searches
- Vectors live in the OpenSearch your Magento already runs — no new database, no new subscription
- Your catalog and your shoppers' photos never leave your infrastructure
- On shared hosting? Switch to the hosted embedding API adapter with one config change
Four ways in — every one your shoppers already know
- Take a photo — the camera opens directly on mobile
- Upload an image from any device
- Paste a screenshot — Ctrl+V anywhere on the page opens visual search with results
- Drag & drop onto the search window
- Images are downscaled in the browser before upload — fast even on mobile data
Hyvä-native storefront, zero theme surgery
- The camera button injects itself into your existing search bar — no theme template overrides to maintain
- Alpine.js + Tailwind, CSP-compliant, composited-only animations, CLS-safe lazy images — built to keep Lighthouse at 100
- Results modal with product image, name, price — one tap to the product page
- Fully bilingual English + French out of the box
Set-and-forget indexing
- Product saves queue themselves; a background worker keeps vectors fresh — admin saves are never slowed down
- If the embedding engine is ever down, batches wait and retry — no product ever silently loses its vector, and normal keyword search is completely unaffected
- Out-of-stock and hidden products are filtered inside the vector query — they never waste a result slot
- Full-catalog rebuild from the dashboard or CLI (
modkor:visualsearch:reindex)
Merchandising intelligence no keyword search can give you
- The analytics dashboard shows what shoppers photograph most — real demand signals from real photos
- Search volume, no-match rate, average match quality and speed
- Privacy-first: shopper images are never stored, IPs are hashed — PIPEDA/GDPR-friendly by design
Built like software, not a plugin
- One-screen React admin with per-store-view overrides — no Stores → Config maze
- Test connection probes your embedding engine before you save and reports the model's real vector dimensions
- Rate-limited, CSRF-protected search endpoint; API keys stored encrypted
- Health CLI (
modkor:visualsearch:status) shows engine, index and queue in one shot
