Features
Everything your store's search needs, in one system
Not just a search box: filters, a results page, merchandising, personalisation and analytics.
Text and AI search
Two engines working together: one for exact words and codes, one that understands meaning.
- Results as they type from the first letter, no Enter needed
- Typo tolerance and one-click "Did you mean?"
- Greek done right accents, capitals, cases, singular and plural («φόρεμα» = «φορέματα»), diminutives («μπλουζάκι» = «μπλούζα»)
- Codes and barcodes SKU, model, EAN, UPC, MPN; with a single match, Enter goes straight to the product (OpenCart)
- Greeklish and wrong keyboard "papoutsia" → παπούτσια, also mixed with Greek: "παντελόνι XL mple" → "παντελόνι XL μπλε"
- Understands phrases "for my wife under €80" → women's, up to €80; "tracksuits for a boy" → boys' items only; "adidas samba 44" → size 44, also in Greeklish
- Amazon-style suggestions from your customers' searches, plus grey inline completion: "brac" → bracelets
- Synonyms and voice search that you define / shoppers speak
Image search
For products that are hard to describe in words: jewellery, shoes, clothing, decor.
- Search with a photo from a phone camera or a file
- Barcode scan with the camera on mobile, finds the same product
- "See similar" on every result, based on how it looks

FAQ
What people ask before they start
Does installing it change anything in my store?
No. The module only adds its own files and does not change any product, order or core file. Until you switch it on, your customers keep seeing your current search.
Can I try it before my customers see it?
Yes. Preview mode lets you use ThunderBar on your live store through a special link, while visitors keep seeing the old search. When you are ready, you switch it on with one click.
How many products can it handle?
In a load test with 45,000 products, search responded in 120–155 ms, and in 25–40 ms when the same search had been made before. For larger catalogues we recommend a dedicated installation.
How often are prices and stock updated?
From every 15 minutes to once a day, depending on your plan. Only what changed is updated, so your store is not put under load.
Does it slow down my site?
The search loads lightly and only when a visitor uses it. All processing happens on our servers, not on your store server.
Does it work with Journal and other themes?
Yes. It works with Journal and most OpenCart 3 themes, and accepts your own CSS for colours and fonts.
Is it GDPR compliant?
We do not store names, emails or payment details. For personalisation, visitors are identified only by an encrypted identifier, and the feature can be switched off.
Do I need a developer?
No. You upload the module from your store admin, paste the key from your dashboard and you are done. If you prefer, we install it for you.
Does it support WooCommerce?
OpenCart 3 is supported today. The WooCommerce plugin is in final testing.
What is the difference between yearly and monthly billing?
Paying yearly saves you 20% compared to monthly billing. Monthly billing has no commitment and can be cancelled at any time. All prices exclude VAT.
What happens if I exceed my pageviews?
Search never stops. We let you know and suggest the right plan. For stores with over 1,000,000 pageviews or big peaks such as Black Friday, there is the Custom plan.
Does it work with Shopify, PrestaShop, Magento or my own system?
Yes. Your catalogue is read from the feed you already have for Skroutz, Google Merchant or Facebook Catalog, and search is added to your site with one line of code. For OpenCart there is a ready-made module.
Does it support Greeklish?
Yes. "papoutsia" finds "παπούτσια", and a wrong keyboard layout (Latin letters when the shopper meant Greek, or the opposite) is detected too.
Can AI assistants search my store?
Yes. ThunderBar includes an MCP server: AI assistants such as Claude, ChatGPT or Cursor and autonomous agents can search your catalog with the same smart search and give their users links to your products.
Do you also have a chat assistant (chatbot)?
Yes, HachiChat (hachichat.io). It answers your visitors 24/7, in any language, based on your own documents and FAQs. Every ThunderBar plan gets HachiChat Starter for free. Pro includes HachiChat Standard, and Enterprise and Custom include HachiChat Pro.
Who is behind ThunderBar?
INWEBPRO, with more than 15 years of experience in hosting and e-commerce development and over 200 e-shop projects, mostly on OpenCart.
