AI search and retrieval platform for modern apps and commerce
Deliver keyword, semantic, and hybrid results from a single index, with natural-language query understanding built in.
Create, test, and deploy AI agents, and generate grounded conversational answers via retrieval-augmented generation over your own content.
Use behavioral signals to surface related products and tailor results to each visitor's journey.
Curate category pages, pin or boost items, and track performance in dashboards without engineering support.
Buy anything online with one API
Query live pricing, availability, images, specs and ratings pulled straight from the retailer at the moment of the request rather than from a catalog refreshed last week.
One keyword or product query reaches Amazon, Walmart, Target, Costco, Etsy and Shopify stores at once, returning structured results you can order from directly.
Compare price, shipping speed, condition and seller reputation across every offer for a product so you can act on the best deal instead of the first result.
Send a product URL, a shipping address and a price cap, and Zinc completes checkout and returns an order ID in seconds, at single-unit or batch volume.
