        FAQ

        Understnd — frequently asked questions.

        What is Understnd on Shopify?
        Understnd is a Shopify app in the Search and filters category. Shopify's default search only finds products when customers type exact keywords. When shoppers search naturally, like "something for dry patches on my face" or "gift for someone who loves cooking," they get no results and leave. Understnd replaces keyword matching with AI that reads customer intent. It matches searches to relevant products based on meaning, not just words. Setup takes minutes. Products sync automatically. Analytics show what customers search for so you can spot trends.
        How much does Understnd cost?
        Understnd has 3 paid plans on the Shopify App Store, starting at $19/month and going up to $99/month.
        Is Understnd free?

        When was Understnd launched?
        Understnd launched on April 30, 2026.
        Is Understnd Built for Shopify?
