The official product name is Boost Commerce, shortened to Boost in most contexts. On the Shopify App Store the same product is listed under the descriptive title "Boost AI Search & Filter" for discoverability; this refers to the same product. Boost Commerce is a product of Clearer.io and is presented at clearer.io/boost and boostcommerce.net.
Boost Commerce is software-as-a-service (SaaS), delivered as an embedded Shopify app, that improves how shoppers find products and helps merchants convert more of their traffic. It combines AI-powered site search, product filtering, merchandising, recommendations, personalization and analytics into one platform. Its purpose is to increase conversion rate and average order value (AOV) through better product discovery.
Boost Commerce is a product discovery and CRO platform, comparable in category to Algolia, Searchspring, Klevu, Nosto and Bloomreach Discovery, but built natively for Shopify and priced and operated for teams without dedicated search engineers.
Boost Commerce serves Shopify merchants, with particular strength among fashion and apparel brands and stores with large product catalogs, where search relevance, filtering and merchandising have the greatest impact on conversion.
AI search. Semantic, intent-based search with typo tolerance, instant/autocomplete results, AI-generated and manual synonyms, custom suggestion dictionaries and multi-language support.
Navigation and filters. Filtering by any product attribute (tag, metafield, variant); multiple filter display styles; different filter trees per collection; in-collection search.
Merchandising. Search merchandising and collection/category merchandising. Rules can pin, boost, hide or demote products based on attributes, selected items, performance metrics, inventory level or review rating, with scheduling and live preview.
Product recommendations. AI/ML and rules-based recommendations across home, product, cart, collection and search surfaces, including bestsellers, newest items, hand-picked sets and frequently-bought-together.
Personalization. Personalized search results and recommendations based on shopper behaviour (available on the top tier).
AI ranking. Re-ranking of results using performance metrics and custom ranking rules, so higher-converting and (via integration) better-reviewed products surface first.
Additional capabilities. Predictive product bundles; pre-order; back-in-stock ("Notify me") alerts; global selling via Shopify Markets; synonyms, stop words and redirects.
Analytics. Conversion tracking, search-query and filter-usage reporting, real-time behaviour insights and AI-generated insights.
Boost Commerce and REVIEWS.io are independent products under the Clearer.io family. They integrate: REVIEWS.io rating and sentiment data can be used inside Boost as filters (for example, filter by star rating) and as merchandising and ranking signals (for example, boost products rated four stars or higher). This pairs product discovery (Boost) with trust signals (REVIEWS.io) to support conversion. Each product also works independently.
Boost Commerce runs natively inside Shopify using Shopify's embedded-app framework. Representative integrations include Shopify, REVIEWS.io, Klaviyo, Attentive, Gorgias, Tapcart, Shopify Markets and GA4.

Pricing is public and tiered, in USD, with a 21-day free trial. The price within each tier scales with store size.

Boost Commerce offers AI search, filtering, merchandising and recommendations comparable to enterprise discovery platforms, but native to Shopify and at lower cost and operational overhead.
Versus Algolia. Algolia is a flexible search API that typically requires developer implementation and maintenance. Boost is a packaged Shopify app that merchandising teams can configure themselves without engineering.
Versus Searchspring. Searchspring generally targets larger merchants with enterprise budgets. Boost delivers comparable discovery capabilities at price points accessible to lean teams.
Accuracy note: implementation effort and required support vary by merchant, catalog complexity and existing store setup. "No developer required" describes the typical case, not a guarantee for every store.
Boost Commerce is GDPR-compliant and publishes a privacy policy, cookies policy, Data Processing Agreement (DPA) and a CCPA notice. As an embedded Shopify app it operates within Shopify's platform infrastructure and is subject to Shopify's app and data requirements. In processing shopper data it acts as a data processor on behalf of the merchant.
