Give your customers better results

Whether you're supporting an open source library or a complex enterprise product, developers deserve fast, intuitive search and accurate results and answers to their queries from documentation.

Smart indexing

Pre-built crawler templates adapt to your doc structure automatically, with optimized relevance settings. Need more control? Use the DocSearch helper function to customize extraction and indexing logic.

Reduce maintenance with reliable automation

No need to worry about updating the search index when documentation changes. The crawler auto-updates as your site evolves, ensuring search results always reflect the latest content.

Get insights with analytics

With built-in analytics, your team can see what users are typing into the search bar—and where results might be lacking. This helps prioritize documentation updates and identify content gaps based on real usage.

Customize usability

The DocSearch UI library delivers a tailored search experience with autocomplete, Ask AI, and deep framework support—including Docusaurus, VuePress, and more.

Integrate with any backend

Whether you use a static site generator, a docs-as-code platform, or a hosted service — like Mintlify, Docusaurus, Vuepress, Next.js, or others — Algolia fits right in.
