Equipped with Yext’s revolutionary search product, local businesses will be able to deliver accurate, up-to-date, and official answers to customers searching on their website
Yext, Inc., the Search Experience Cloud company, announced the availability of Yext Answers, the company’s revolutionary search product, to select partners in its Channel Partner Program.
Select global Channel partners that typically sell Yext solutions to small businesses will now be able to offer their clients a modern search experience on their websites, capable of understanding complex questions in natural language and returning direct answers. This includes the ability to integrate custom calls to action within the answers, allowing businesses to boost conversions and lower support costs.
“Today’s enterprises have the power to win customers back from Google with Answers, our revolutionary NLP-based search product — and now, we’re bringing that power to SMBs,” said Howard Lerman, Founder and CEO of Yext. “With businesses of all sizes grappling with the surge of customer questions during the COVID-19 pandemic, it’s never been more important for local businesses to use the most advanced technology available and meet customers with official answers, the moment they ask for them.”
