Developer search API
BrainSA vs Algolia
Algolia is a world-class search API built for engineering teams. BrainSA is the opposite bet: a ready-made widget for store owners who need results this week, not a quarter-long integration project.
Why switch to BrainSA
Choose BrainSA when you don't have a search engineer — and don't want to hire one.
- No ranking code or custom search UI to build and maintain
- Chat and conversational overlay included, not a separate project
- CSV / Shopify / feed import with automatic enrichment
- Merchant dashboard instead of API dashboards and usage meters
