Search personalization now works with federated search π
You can tailor results to each user, even across multiple indexes in a single search.
This feature is an add-on; reach out to support@meilisearch.com and we'll get you set up!
You can now copy a whole project into another one, right inside Meilisearch.
Move data from staging to production, clone a project, or migrate to a new region in a few clicks β no scripts needed.
It's live under Project Settings β Exports.

Your RAG system is only as smart as the questions it's asked.
When answers feel off, the problem is usually the question β not your data.
Query rewriting cleans up the question before the search runs. Better matches, more accurate answers, no retraining.

We're heading to @VivaTech again!
June 17β20, Paris. Come say hi, see what we're building, and talk search, AI, and everything in between.

RAG without guardrails is like launching a rocket with no navigation β exciting, but risky.
In our latest blog post, we cover:
π§ Who actually needs RAG guardrails
π§ How Meilisearch helps you set them up
π§ Why skipping them is a bad idea

RAG sounds magical β until you try to make it work with your actual data tables.
We just wrote up what genuinely helps, where teams get stuck, and a few examples that actually clicked:

Better AI answers start with better data retrieval. Reranking reorders your search results so the most relevant ones come out on top - before the AI even writes a response.
The payoff:
β Smarter answers
β Fewer made-up facts
β AI that gets what actually matters

Launch Week, Day 5: we're closing out with two betas.
ποΈ 1. Document Joins (beta): link Meilisearch indexes the way you'd join SQL tables. Search results come back enriched with related data. No sync scripts, no stale results, no duplication.
π 2. Dynamic Search Rules (beta): pin documents to exact positions in results, triggered by conditions you define (empty query, keyword, time window). 3 rules per project, free.
As a reminder, here's a full list of features we covered this week:
- Sharding & Replication
- Enterprise security (SSO/SAML MFA)
- Chat UI
- Search Performance Inspector
- Document Joins (beta)
- Dynamic Search Rules (beta)
Thanks for following along! Full recap: meilisearch.com/launch-week-β¦
Day 4 of our Launch Week, and it's a free & universally useful one.
Introducing Search Performance Inspector - a performance trace of every search query, right inside your Cloud dashboard.
Slow query? Now you'll know if it's facets, formatting, or semantic search costing you latency. Understand the magic behind the search performance and optimize it yourself.

Meilisearch Launch Week is here. 5 days, Multiple releases. π₯
We're kicking things off with one of the biggest infrastructure releases in our history: Sharding & Replication:
π‘ Sharding - scale beyond a single node, no full migration needed
π‘ Replication - instant failover, global routing to the nearest instance
π‘ Leader-based architecture - config changes propagate automatically
And the best part? They're composable. Run both at the same time, at whatever scale you need.
