Query Expansion
Turn every search query into a comprehensive semantic expansion. Compare keyword vs cloud LLM vs LFM approaches, test persona-based rewriting for different shopper types, simulate A/B test revenue impact, and prove Shopify-scale throughput.
The Problem
'Cozy blanket' should match 'fleece throw,' but keyword search can't. Algolia is fast but has no semantic expansion. Cloud LLMs expand well but at 200-500ms, visible in autocomplete.
How LFM Compares
Keyword search returns exact matches only — 'cozy blanket' won't find 'fleece throw.' Cloud expansion works but adds 200-500ms. LFM expands semantically at 45ms, invisible to users.
What LFM Unlocks
Semantic query expansion at 45ms, invisible to the user. Every vague query becomes 10+ rich terms. Orders of magnitude cheaper than cloud LLMs at scale.
