At Algolia, we’re proud to be a pioneer and market leader in AI Search and be part of a cadre of companies that are driving the next generation of software development, with composable APIs that make developers’ lives easier; solutions that are better than building from scratch using open APIs and better than having to adapt typical SaaS solutions.
