    Why Meilisearch?

    The next generation of search

    Meilisearch is a flexible and powerful user-focused search engine that can be added to any website or application.

      Lightning fast

      Search-as-you-type returns answers in less than 50 milliseconds. That's faster than the blink of an eye!

      Plug ‘n play

      Deploy in a matter of minutes. Smart presets let you start searching through your data with zero configuration.

      Flexible

      Send data to Meilisearch however you want—no need to match a schema or convert your dataset to a compatible format.

      Typo tolerant

      Everyone makes mistakes! If typos break your search experience, many users will leave thinking what they were looking for just wasn't there.
