Visual Search Engine for E-Commerce

Project overview
Shoppers on VisionMatch's marketplace could not find products they had seen elsewhere. We added photo search across a catalogue of 200,000 items and wired it into the storefront and mobile app.
Client challenges & requirements
Text search failed for items shoppers could describe only visually, and the catalogue's inconsistent product data made keyword matching unreliable.
- Large, fast-changing catalogue with patchy product attributes
- Search had to return results in under a second on mobile
- Headless storefront and native apps needed the same API
Our solution
We built an image-embedding pipeline that indexes new products automatically, a vector search API with sub-second responses, and a photo-upload flow in the web and mobile storefronts.
