Scolta 1.0.0

AI-powered search for Drupal, WordPress, and Laravel — now stable.

What is Scolta?

Scolta is an open-source, AI-powered search platform that replaces the default search on Drupal, WordPress, and Laravel sites with intelligent, semantic search. It uses a Rust/WASM core for scoring, query expansion, and relevance ranking, with a shared PHP library and thin CMS-specific adapters. Scolta is built by Tag1 Consulting and powered by Amazee.ai for AI infrastructure.

scolta-php is the shared PHP library that all CMS adapters depend on. It provides the PHP indexer, AI summary with streaming, query expansion, filter/sort infrastructure, and content management layer that powers every Scolta installation.

1.0.0 Stable Release

This is the foundation library that Drupal, WordPress, and Laravel packages build on. Highlights of the stable release:

  • PHP indexer with no binary dependency — index content using pure PHP
  • AI summary with streaming for real-time answer generation
  • expand_query with disambiguation for intelligent query rewriting
  • Filter/sort infrastructure with two-pass matching, subcategory support, and price sort patterns
  • Memory pressure handling with stream tokenization for large sites
  • API error handling (401/429/503) with graceful degradation
  • Amazee.ai provider support for managed AI infrastructure
  • E2E test suite covering the full search pipeline
