What is Yext?

Today’s shopper journey starts with a question — and your customers expect answers in their moment of intent. Convert and retain more direct business when you power your site search experience with Yext Answers, a natural language search engine for your website that helps consumers convert — right in the search results.

The Yext Knowledge Graph is a relational database purpose-built to store and structure all the public-facing facts about your brand — and the relationships between them — so that natural language systems like search engines and other customer experiences can understand and respond to the questions that today’s consumers are asking.

Key features of Answers:

• Answers Not Links: When you ask a question about products, you want an answer about how or where to purchase that product, not a long list of blue links. Yext Answers returns direct answers to shopper's queries in the form of rich content like knowledge cards, maps, and other relevant results.

• Natural Language Understanding: Yext Answers uses artificial intelligence to put unstructured natural language into context, determine general customer intent, and return results that best respond to each query.

• Federated Architecture: You shouldn’t have to hunt for the right search bar on a website in order to get information. Yext Answers consolidates vertical searches into a single search bar, so shoppers can search for anything in one interface: products, events, locations, and more.

• Faceted Search: Yext Answers uses dynamic filters that update depending on a shopper’s search.

• Spelling Correction: Yext Answers automatically corrects misspellings in each query and suggests "Did You Mean" alternatives in the results for query refinement.

• Query Rules: Boost or bury results to tailor them to each user, and configure rules to augment the search algorithm so shoppers can override results depending on the search term.

• Location Personalization: Yext Answers detects a shopper’s location to inform search results and return geographically relevant information.

• Vertical Search: Yext Answers isolates a shopper’s search to a single entity type—like locations, professionals, or products—and adjusts the UI accordingly.

• Answers Analytics: Yext Answers aggregates data to identify trends like popular search terms, customers’ locations, exact results returned, clicks on every entity, actions taken per each click, and much more.
