For PrestaShop agencies

Give client stores a better search module

Search Pro helps agencies deliver autocomplete, product results, filters, relevance controls, merchandising rules, storefront customization, setup, and analytics without adding Elasticsearch or a mandatory monthly subscription to the client project.

Agency projects

Use Search Pro when search is part of the project outcome

Search Pro fits client projects where the agency is already responsible for storefront experience, catalog navigation, theme work, or product discovery.

  • The store has outgrown default PrestaShop search.
  • The client uses separate search and filter modules and wants a more complete search module.
  • The client pays for a search subscription but mainly needs search, filters, relevance controls, merchandising, and analytics.
  • The client wants business control over which products search promotes.
  • The store needs storefront customization and developer control.
  • The client wants a module option instead of Elasticsearch or a separate search service.

Client store check

Check the store before you recommend it

Before recommending Search Pro to a client, an agency can try the storefront, open the Back Office, review merchandising rules, check theme work, build the index, and see the analytics screens.

  • Storefront search and filters.
  • Back Office search setup.
  • Field and filter configuration.
  • Merchandising rules and preview.
  • Interface customization.
  • Indexing and go-live flow.
  • Analytics dashboard.
  • Compatibility notes and where to ask questions.

Merchandising work

Turn search improvements into business-facing project work

Merchandising gives agencies a business conversation, not only a technical integration task. The client can decide which products should lead for important queries, which ranges need more visibility, and where search should support campaigns or stock priorities.

The agency can configure rules, check preview and explain output, and connect analytics signals to ongoing improvement work.

  • Exact-query rules for important shopper searches.
  • Product and category priority rules.
  • Pin, boost, bury, and hide controls.
  • Analytics-led follow-up after launch.

Scope the first project before selling it

A good Search Pro project starts with the store, the catalog, and the client’s search problem, not with a generic install promise.

Store and catalog

PrestaShop version, catalog size, languages, multistore needs, product data quality, and existing search traffic.

Existing search

Default search, separate search/filter modules, or a monthly search service the client no longer wants to pay for.

Theme work

Search box placement, results page, product cards, filter layout, mobile behavior, and CSS adaptation.

Search improvement

Fields, synonyms, filters, merchandising rules, analytics review, and go-live checks.

Custom storefront work

Customization can become paid project work

Most stores need the search interface to match their theme and catalog. Search Pro gives agencies a clear place to add value: product cards, layout adaptation, filter presentation, CSS, theme integration, and client-specific storefront work.

Kea Labs can help with the first project when the store fits the module and the team has technical questions.

How the first client project can work

Start with a focused store where search matters, the catalog is clear, and theme work can be scoped.

Kea Labs can help with

Store review, technical questions, installation diagnosis, indexing questions, merchandising rules, configuration checks, and feature questions.

The agency owns

Client relationship, project management, store access, theme work, custom development, client expectations, and final delivery.

Good first project

A store with visible search pain, manageable catalog shape, clear theme integration scope, and business reasons to improve search results.

Wrong first project

A client that needs semantic search, image search, recommendations, personalization, hosted capacity, provider-managed operations, or contractual service levels.

Kea Labs Cloud

Use Cloud when the client needs AI search or hosted infrastructure

If the client needs semantic search, image search, recommendations, visual discovery, API-first integration, hosted capacity, provider-managed operations, or contractual service levels, Kea Labs Cloud is the better option to discuss.

Optional path to Kea Labs Cloud

Start with a real client store

Open the PrestaShop module page, watch the demo, and send a question when the storefront, catalog, merchandising rules, or customization work needs a closer look.
