🚀 Release 2025-01

Release date: January 8, 2025

TL;DR: New enhancements in multi-language semantic search. Fixed a minor bug to avoid errors.

Improvements


Multi-language semantic search support

We are excited to share two new enhancements in multi-language semantic search.

What’s new?

  • More precise recall: Semantic Search now supports Product type keyword precision in all non-English languages. Product type keyword precision helps improve keyword recall precision by matching products using the product type extracted from the query, synonyms, and user behavior data.

  • Additional language support: Bulgarian and Croatian catalogs can now benefit from semantic search capabilities.

How is this useful?

Non-English catalogs can now leverage Bloomreach’s semantic engine to optimize search recall, enhancing the overall product discovery experience.

For a comparison of features available in English versus non-English search, please refer to the feature support table.

Feature access

By default, all new and existing customers will have access. Visit the documentation article to learn more.


🐛Bug fix


  • We have enhanced our frontend system to better handle ‘*’ queries for different merchandising operations. This improvement will help avoid 4xx errors. For a list of merchandising operations supported with the ‘*’ query, please refer to the detailed table.
