Show HN: Amazon-like product recommendation engine to power open-source eComm

https://search.rye.com/

Hi HN! I wanted to share our product search and recommendation engine that we’ve built for our eCommerce api startup - Rye. For context, Rye lets people query and dropship products from almost any Shopify and Amazon store. One feature we wanted to have as part of our developer experience was a way for them to search and discover specific products to query.

We’ve put together a demo marketplace to showcase the engine. Check it out here: https://search.rye.com/

Here’s a blog that outlines how we built it and how you can to: https://blog.rye.com/a-beginners-guide-to-building-a-product...

If you’d like to build on it, we’re also down to open source it for folks that want access.

Hmm, is it just a shop / aggregator?

I'm not sure what to make of this.. what's so special?
