Gunfinder's search algorithm is constantly being revised by our tech team to improve the quality of search results.
The latest updates now include the integration of Artificial Intelligence, which evaluates the imagery of product listings from various platforms (Such as egun, Auctronia or VDB), dealers and online stores regardless of the text content of the listing.
The result is that the search algorithm can better identify to which category (weapon, optics, ammunition, equipment or clothing) an offer belongs - information that is often not clear from text content, especially when it comes to complete offers (weapon & optics or accessories).
For Gunfinder users, this technical innovation provides better results in two ways:
On the one hand, it is possible to filter more clearly by categories, which can be set on the left edge of the search window. If you search for a "weapon", you will now less often find results that are assigned to the category "optics", for example.
Furthermore, even without filtering by category, the search results are better judged by their relevance.
For example, someone searching for a "Blaser R8" or a "Merkel Helix" is interested in rifles and possibly these rifles in combination with an already mounted optic.
The search algorithm can better sort corresponding offers with the help of image recognition and derive the relevance - for users this results in an improved quality of search results.
