Product selector vs filters
Filters work when shoppers already know which specifications matter. A product selector translates everyday needs into those specifications.
Turn shopper needs, product selector questions and product data into clear recommendations for category pages, product pages and campaigns.
Guide shoppers from doubt to the right product with short advice flows that fit into your existing webshop.
Quick answer
Product finder software helps visitors move from need to product choice. The shopper answers a few questions, the software matches those answers to product data and shows a short list with context. A product selector does the same for categories where specs, size, compatibility or use case decide the right fit.
Use a product finder when shoppers can describe their situation, but do not know which specifications matter. The strongest product selectors keep questions simple and let product data, matching rules and analytics do the heavy lifting.
Filters work when shoppers already know which specifications matter. A product selector translates everyday needs into those specifications.

Really nice guided selling software. It works super intuitively, with plenty of options to customise and style it the way you want. The team thinks along with you and responds quickly. In short: highly recommended!
I use this tool in my clients' webshops and it works perfectly. A few simple questions and the visitor lands on the right product, which results in more sales and fewer returns. Quick to install and it integrates seamlessly into the webshop.
