Amazon Search creates powerful, customer-focused product search solutions and technologies. Whenever a customer visits an Amazon site worldwide and types in a query or browses through product categories, our systems go to work. We delight customers when we accurately understand their intent expressed via a query or image, and reflect that understanding throughout the search page - from layout to the search results and navigation. We make shopping effortless by helping customers easily explore our vast selection, narrowing down a myriad of options to a manageable consideration set while providing key information to make high confidence decisions with low post-purchase regret.
