Companies Using Searchanise

I pulled Searchanise out of our October 2026 crawl expecting a Shopify app and nothing else. Three quarters of it is. A domain counts here when a page creates the Searchanise object or loads its widget from searchanise or searchserverapi hosts. That gives 10,727 live domains, 5,296 matched to a company, 4th of 58 in Site Search. I fetched the 50 companies listed on this page: 48 loaded Searchanise and 2 blocked automated visits. Four earlier rows didn't hold up (three were matched to the wrong company record, one no longer loads it), so I replaced them with the next verified companies.

Three quarters Shopify, a quarter elsewhere

Assign each of the 10,635 clean live domains to one platform and you get 75.67% on Shopify, 10.41% on BigCommerce, 5.57% on Wix, 3.77% on WooCommerce and 2.72% on Magento, with 1.82% on none we detect. The widget's own address says the same: 4,862 domains load the Shopify widget, 780 the BigCommerce one and 532 the Wix one. On the BigCommerce side are Terex's parts marketplace, Aman's shop and Walkers Shortbread's US store. myG, the Indian electronics chain, runs it on CS-Cart, and the Child Center of NY uses the Wix app.

Sales signal: about one Searchanise domain in ten runs BigCommerce. If you sell to BigCommerce merchants, that slice is a ready-made list of stores that already pay for search.

Keys, aliases and one odd page title

Searchanise's script carries an API key, so we can count accounts. In the 6,368 domains where we could read it we found 4,697 keys, about 1.36 domains each. The biggest belong to sellers with many alias domains: Igloo on 37, FilterFinder on 22 country domains, a beef-jerky seller on 21 and Pioneer Linens on 19. None is close to 1% of the count, and no agency or platform runs a large block of stores under one key. 21 domains carry the page title "American Express". They're ordinary independent stores whose own title tag is empty, so our crawler read the label on the first payment-card icon in the footer.

Sales signal: dedupe by key and redirect target before you count prospects. Alias-heavy sellers inflate the domain count but are single buyers.

Flat since July

The chart reads 8,439 in June, 10,072 in July, 10,405 in August, 10,598 in September and 10,727 in October. The June to July step is mostly our side: the domains we crawl turn over every month as dead sites drop out and new ones are added, and our detection signals widen. From July to October the line adds 655 domains. Since March 2026, 2,597 domains dropped Searchanise on at least one hostname; 423 still run it on another, so 2,174 left entirely.

"Searchanise is the Shopify search app that kept a foot on other platforms. About one of its domains in four runs something other than Shopify." - Sophie Clarke, Product Marketing Manager at TechnologyChecker.io

Sales signal: a steady pool of about 10,700 domains, with churn in the low thousands over seven months. Small stores come and go; plan on refreshing the list monthly.

Small teams, English-speaking markets

52.19% of matched companies with a known size have 1 to 10 employees and 32.72% have 11 to 50. The US has 2,464 matched companies, the UK 694, Canada 365 and Australia 328: 74.47% of the base is English-speaking, against Doofinder's European spread. Several of the 34 companies with more than 1,000 staff sell from a side shop. Purina Mills, Goya Foods and Tootsie Roll run direct-to-consumer stores, True Manufacturing a B2B parts store and the Royal Ballet and Opera a gift shop. Smaller institutions do the same: the UK Parliament shop and the Royal Conservatory of Music.

Sales signal: at large companies the buyer is the owner of the shop, often in merchandising or a direct-to-consumer team, not central IT. Find that team before you pitch.

Overlap with Boost Commerce and Doofinder

Our switching tests publish no rival for Searchanise because the overlaps are small and most of them still run both. 64 domains run Searchanise and Boost Commerce today, out of 120 that ever ran both. 68 run Searchanise and Doofinder, out of 122, and 13 run it with Algolia. Merci, the Paris concept store, loads both Searchanise and Doofinder on its Shopify store.

"On Shopify, Boost has more stores and Searchanise has more platforms. Very few merchants run both for long." - Sophie Clarke, Product Marketing Manager at TechnologyChecker.io

Sales signal: head-to-head displacement is rare. The larger market is stores still on Shopify's built-in search, where both apps are pitching against the default.

The Shopify app stack

Across the 10,635 clean live domains, Google Analytics runs on 81.23%. Klaviyo is on 39.81% and its reviews product on 29.37%, Judge.me on 19.79%, Yotpo Reviews on 7.11% and Instafeed on 9.64%. MailChimp is on 14.69%. Consent tools barely show (Pandectes 5.78%, Cookiebot 2.72%), which fits a North American base. The stack looks like any growing Shopify store's.

Sales signal: email and reviews apps have the strongest overlap with Searchanise stores. A partner that feeds search data into Klaviyo flows has a ready audience here.

What it costs and what merchants say

On Shopify, Searchanise prices by catalogue size. Its pricing page lists a Free plan for up to 25 products, then Basic at $19 a month (1,500 products), Essential $39, Advanced $89, Growth $139, Pro $209 and Premium $349 (300,000 products), each a little cheaper billed annually, with a 14-day trial. BigCommerce plans run from $19.90 to $169.90. The Shopify listing is rated 4.7 from 1,261 reviews. The about page claims 16K+ shop owners and, further down, 14,800 clients, more than our count of matched companies but in the same range as our domains.

Sales signal: pricing by product count means a growing catalogue triggers the upgrade, not traffic. Stores near a tier ceiling are the ones reviewing their search spend.
