Reviewed by iTechGuides Editors · Editorial team · Updated Oct 2026
Expertrec is a hosted search and product-discovery platform for ecommerce stores, content websites, and custom-built applications. It combines AI-powered site and product search with autocomplete, typo correction, voice search, faceted filters, merchandising controls, recommendations, personalization, and reporting. Its analytics cover search queries, zero-result searches, result clicks, funnels, conversions, products, devices, and locations, making it relevant for teams that want search behavior tied to ecommerce performance.
The freemium structure gives smaller teams a way to start with the Free plan, which includes basic search features and Expertrec branding. A 14-day free trial is also available. The Standard plan costs $65 per month and adds search analytics, voice search, advanced filters, GA4 integration, search and collection merchandising, and API support. At $99 per month, Expert includes everything in Standard plus advanced analytics, AI merchandising, and live chat support. Enterprise adds theme customizations, collection pages, recommendation widgets, AI personalization, A/B testing, and premium support.
Platform coverage is a central strength. Expertrec supports Shopify, Shopify Plus, WooCommerce, Magento, Adobe Commerce, BigCommerce, WordPress, Wix, Drupal, Joomla, Squarespace, HubSpot CMS, Contentful, Thinkific, and MIVA. Custom implementations can use its REST API or JavaScript SDK, while PDF and document indexing extends beyond product catalogs. Small commerce sites with mixed technology stacks should consider Expertrec for its integration breadth and search analytics. Teams seeking only basic search may find the paid feature set broader than necessary, while advanced merchandising and analytics users will need a paid tier.
