Smart Indexing
Algolia Pro features a system we call Smart Indexing that tracks the indexing payload that we send to Algolia. If this payload doesn't change, we don't send it again. This is particularly powerful when combined with Algolia Pro's ability to split page content into smaller chunks and even link directly to HTML headers closest to the relevant search results. It means that you can update a small portion of your page, and only the relevant chunk will be re-indexed by Algolia.
This makes things run faster, and also cuts down on the API calls, saving you money!
CLI Indexing
Index your site directly from the CLI at a lighting fast speed!
Algolia Search
Beautiful and modern search modal that fill the real estate of the browser and focus on the search results.
Appearance
Pick from a Light, Dark style or let it automatically decide for your users based on their system settings.
Furthermore, thanks to the advanced inheritance config system, you can also have some pages set to light and others to dark. The choice is yours.
Preview
This fully optional and totally customizable Preview panel comes with a summary of the breadcrumb, title, content and "On This Page" sections that will help your users focus better on the type of content they are looking for.
Accent Colors
Easily pick an accent color from the color-picker and make the search experience matching your site in a matter of seconds.
If you feel adventurous, you can redesign the whole look. Just create your custom stylesheet and use it instead of the built-in one.

Can I use Algolia Pro on multiple sites?

Yes, the query interface can be fully configured and customized to suite your needs. Please check out the Frontend Docs for full details and examples on how to achieve this.
How can I automate the indexing process?
Algolia Pro supports the Grav Scheduler to run periodic tasks. Alternatively you can use your system's cron functionality to run the CLI index command if that fits your workflow better.
What is Smart Indexing?
Algolia Pro has a Smart Indexing feature that tracks index payloads locally on the server. If a payload is the same as a previously indexed one, it will be skipped. This can dramatically reduce the number of API calls when indexing, saving you money and giving you the ability to setup a more frequent indexing schedule so your search stays up to date with your content.
Please refer to the Algolia Usage Limits documentation for more details for more information.
Does Algolia Pro impact my Algolia usage limits?
Algolia Pro uses the Algolia API to index and query, and these calls count towards your Algolia usage. However, Algolia Pro's Smart Indexing can dramatically reduce the number of calls made.
