Out-of-Stock Reranking

Automatically Hide Unavailable Products From Search Results

Out-of-stock reranking automatically pushes unavailable products down in search results while promoting in-stock alternatives. Instead of frustrating customers with unavailable items, this smart approach uses inventory data to ensure shoppers always see products they can actually buy.

For example, when organic whole milk is out of stock, the system promotes alternative dairy products that are available. This creates a seamless shopping experience that keeps customers engaged and converts more browsers into buyers.
