Klevu

Klevu is an AI-powered ecommerce search and product-discovery technology that became part of Athos Commerce after combining with Searchspring in 2025. Klevu remains supported for existing customers, while Athos Commerce is now the broader commercial platform and migration path for search, merchandising, personalization, recommendations, and product discovery.

1. Search experience: Klevu uses machine learning, natural-language processing, autocomplete, behavioral data, and catalog information to understand shopper queries and rank relevant products. The newer Athos AI Search extends this approach with hybrid semantic and keyword search plus behavioral signals that continuously refine results.
2. Merchandising and personalization: Klevu supports manual product pinning, boosting rules, category merchandising, and scheduled campaigns while machine learning continues to influence the remaining rankings. Current Athos capabilities expand this with rules based on inventory, trends, segments, shopper history, and real-time intent, alongside AI-assisted merchandising recommendations.
3. Commerce integrations: Klevu has prebuilt integrations for Shopify and Shopify Plus, Adobe Commerce/Magento, BigCommerce, commercetools, Salesforce Commerce Cloud, and Shopware. SDKs and APIs support headless and custom storefront implementations, while Klevu’s existing Discovery Suite can power search results, category pages, and product recommendations.
4. Commercial considerations: new Athos Commerce customers receive quote-based pricing. Its Onsite Discovery plan includes Search, Merchandising, and Personalization, with AI Search, AI Merchandising, AI Product Recommendations, and AI Product Bundling available as add-ons. Single products and custom combinations can also be quoted, so buyers should distinguish current Athos packaging from legacy Klevu subscriptions.

Klevu is most relevant to ecommerce teams that want established AI search and merchandising technology without building product-discovery infrastructure internally, while buyers evaluating it today should also consider the ongoing transition to the unified Athos Commerce platform.
