*This article was written by the Yasan team, so Yasan is our own product. We aim for a fair comparison: facts about other solutions come from their public websites, and for each one we say when it is a better fit than Yasan.*

**Short answer:** Search Ready is a Czech intelligent search solution with detailed faceted filtering, autocomplete, an administration interface and business control over results. Yasan is an AI shop assistant that tries to understand the shopper’s whole request and turn price, size, brand or intended use straight into results. It uses the same catalogue knowledge in its AI chat as well.

Search Ready is the better fit for catalogues where the shopper needs to filter a large number of technical parameters systematically. Yasan makes more sense where the shopper writes the parameters in a natural sentence or does not even know the names of the filters they should use.

## What is Yasan

Yasan works with an exact name, a compound parametric query and an open-ended need. It handles “DJI Osmo Pocket 3” as classic search. It understands “drone for a beginner under €600 with good stabilisation” as a combination of category, experience, price and feature.

If the shopper needs advice, the AI can add an explanation and a recommendation. A follow-up question continues in chat on top of the same catalogue knowledge. Depending on the integration, Yasan can also help with order status once the customer has been verified.

## What is Search Ready

Search Ready is a Czech search engine designed for online stores, B2B catalogues and other websites with a large amount of content. It offers autocomplete, a results page, faceted filters, synonyms, custom ranking, blacklists and whitelists, reporting and A/B testing.

Its filtering adapts to the products found. It can work with ranges (for example a price histogram), keywords, yes/no values and other data types. The store can choose AND or OR logic, sort filter values and adjust their behaviour in the administration.

Search Ready also uses AI in some additional features, for example when working with document content or grouping popular content. However, it is not presented as a conversational AI shop assistant on top of the catalogue.

## The main difference: manual control of filters vs. query interpretation

For the request “pressure washer under €300 for washing a car”, Search Ready can find the category and offer a price slider, power, accessories and other filters. The shopper has a lot of control over narrowing the selection.

Yasan tries to understand both the price limit and the use from the sentence itself and show matching products straight away. If the need is unclear, it can ask a follow-up question or explain its recommendation.

So Search Ready builds on a high-quality results interface and data. Yasan puts more emphasis on the shopper not having to know which parameters are hidden in the filters.

## Overview by situation

| Situation | Yasan | Search Ready |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Exact model or code | Ordinary search results | Strong search for products and codes |
| Typo | Works with the meaning of the query | Typo tolerance and synonyms |
| Price and use in one sentence | Tries to turn them straight into results | The shopper usually narrows the selection with filters |
| Detailed technical parameters | Handles parameters according to the catalogue data | Rich faceted filtering and administration |
| Advice-seeking question | AI answer and product chat | Classic results; a conversational adviser is not the core of the product |
| Buying straight from the results | Product cards depending on the implementation | An add-to-cart button can sit directly in the results |
| Documents and technical data sheets | Not a main specialisation | AI processing of PDF, Word, Excel and other documents |

## How we compared

The comparison is based on both vendors’ public websites, verified on 1 November 2026, and on a short, informal trial on several live stores in October 2026. It was neither a benchmark nor a representative sample, so we do not use results from individual stores to rate the products.

On the stores we tried, Search Ready coped well with exact models and typos and offered very detailed filtering: price range, brand, availability, labels and adding to the cart straight from the results.

For your own decision we recommend a simple procedure: take 20–30 real queries from your customers, including the ones that end with no results today, and try them in both solutions on the same catalogue. The quality of answers and results depends mainly on product data and configuration, which differ for every store.

## Where Search Ready has the edge

### Faceted filtering

Search Ready gives the shopper detailed control over the results. That is essential for electronics, tools, spare parts and B2B catalogues with many exact parameters.

### Administration and business control

The store can configure synonyms, stop words, filters, ordering and indexing. Results can be adapted to business logic and to specific data.

### Search in documents

Using OCR and AI, Search Ready can process PDF, Word, Excel, e-books or scans and display them with a useful title and description. That is a strong feature for technical and B2B catalogues.

### Payment per actual click-through

The performance-based part of the price depends on clicks on a found result, not on every query entered. This model may suit some stores better.

## Where Yasan has the edge

### Several conditions in one sentence

Yasan tries to understand not only the product but also price, size, compatibility and use, without any further setting of filters.

### Advice and follow-up questions

If the shopper does not know the technical parameters, they can describe their need and continue in chat. Search Ready is primarily a tool for searching and filtering.

### One set of knowledge in search and chat

Product data serves ordinary results, the AI answer and conversational advice.

### Standard public plans

Yasan can be tried without an individual sales process. Search Ready is deployed with a consultation, and the specific variant affects the price.

## Pricing

Yasan lists plans at €31.99, €82.99 and €206.90 per month excluding VAT and a 14-day trial.

Search Ready uses a flat fee plus a performance-based component depending on click-throughs. The public price list for the Standard version states a licence of 3,000 Kč per month, 1,000 click-throughs included and then from 1 Kč per click-through; the rate gradually decreases with higher volume down to 0.10 Kč. Initiation is free in this variant. Alongside it, Search Ready also offers an individually priced Custom version, so check the specific offer in the [current price list](https://www.searchready.cz/cenik-standard).

## When to choose Search Ready

Search Ready is probably the better choice if:

- you sell technical goods with many parameters;
- shoppers want to narrow results manually with filters;
- you need detailed control over synonyms, facets and ordering;
- you want to display documentation, manuals and technical data sheets;
- you use Shoptet or Upgates, or need a custom implementation;
- payment per click-through on results suits you.

Example: a tool store has tens of thousands of items and the shopper filters by power, voltage, brand, price and availability. Precise filtering matters more than a conversational answer.

## When to choose Yasan

Yasan is probably the better choice if:

- shoppers write price, features and use straight into the query;
- they do not know which filter or technical parameter they need;
- you want search to answer an advice-seeking question as well;
- you want to follow up with an AI chat on top of the same catalogue;
- you need a product assistant, not management of documents and facets.

Example: a shopper is looking for a “pressure washer for occasionally washing a car, under €300” and does not want to study pressure, flow rate or motor type. Yasan is meant to help them turn the need into a suitable selection.

## When you need neither

A small catalogue with clear categories and a few filters can work well with basic search too. First analyse zero-result queries and check whether the problem lies in missing parameters or unclear product names.

## Verdict

Search Ready is stronger where the shopper needs technically precise filtering and the store wants detailed control over the results. Yasan is stronger where the shopper describes their need in a sentence and does not want to, or cannot, translate the request into parameters.

If your typical shopper is a “filterer”, test Search Ready. If they are more likely to write “I need X for Y under Z euros”, test Yasan.
