What problem does it solve?
Elasticsearch use-case library — the full map of what you can build, with industry examples and technologies. Use when a developer asks "what can Elastic do?", "what can I build?", "what use cases does Elasticsearch support?", "show me examples", or needs help choosing what to build.
Core Features & Use Cases
Present this library when a developer asks what they can build with Elasticsearch, wants to explore use cases, or needs help figuring out which category their project falls into. Walk through the relevant use cases conversationally — don't dump the entire list. Ask what resonates, then route to the appropriate implementation guide.
The Use Cases
1. Product & Catalog Search
Helps users find items in a structured catalog using full-text search, facets, and autocomplete.
2. Knowledge Base & Document Search
Lets users search long-form content and find relevant passages with semantic matching and highlighting.
3. AI-Powered Assistant / Chatbot
Build conversational agents that answer questions using data, with RAG pipelines and vector search.
4. Recommendations & Discovery

5. Customer Support Search
Helps agents find resolutions and customers self-serve with hybrid and semantic search.
6. Location-based Search
Finds results near a location using geo features and full-text search.
7. Log & Event Search
