Client Satisfaction

Basic database LIKE queries don't scale and give poor results. Laravel Scout with Meilisearch gives you proper full-text search.

Typo tolerance, faceted filtering, instant results. Your users find what they're looking for, even when they misspell it.

I set up the indexing pipeline, configure relevance tuning, and build the search UI. The result is search that actually works.
