The FilterIQ decision board
The shopper journey. The merchant controls. One decision.
Every frame below comes from an approved FilterIQ capture. Check what is shown, try the working catalogue, then compare the features and terms that matter to your store.
Try the working catalogueOpen full-size captures to inspect the controls and labels. The search image is from the source storefront; the price image is from the on-site 12-product preview. The admin capture shows filter-set organisation, not publishing.

A clearer brief from one public page.
FilterIQ currently works with Shopify stores only. Enter your public Shopify homepage and we'll look for theme and discovery clues, then show what still needs your input.
You can skip this check and answer the comparison questions yourself.
How this result was chosen
We check each must-have separately against dated public evidence. Documented matches come first; unverified or plan-dependent needs go into “Could fit”. A published absence, a verified price above a hard budget, or an unavailable new-install listing prevents a recommendation. Among eligible options, documented matches, your budget and setup preference decide the order. This tool does not measure search quality or predict sales.
Prices are directional USD list prices, not invoices. We use product count for FilterIQ and Searchanise, sessions for Fast Simon, GMV for Boost, Units for Luigi's Box, and requests plus records for Algolia. Some provider charges and implementation costs are excluded. Numeric prices expire after 30 days; feature evidence expires after 90 days.
