New BenchTrust Filters for More Precise Provider Search

What's new? We have fundamentally revised the BenchTrust search function. The result: a smarter, fault-tolerant, and significantly more precise provider search.

Intelligent synonym recognition Our search now understands the context. Whether you enter "ERP", "Enterprise Resource Planning" or even "inventory management" – the system recognizes that you mean the same thing.

Examples of recognized synonyms:

ERP area: ERP, Enterprise Resource Planning, inventory management system, business process management HR software: HRIS, human resources, personnel management, HR department, HCM Finance: Financial Accounting, FiBu, Accounting, Accounting Department, Bookkeeping CRM: Customer Relationship Management, customer relationship management, sales software Overall, the search now supports over 250 synonyms in German and English.

Improved typo tolerance People make mistakes – our search forgives them. The new fuzzy search algorithm recognizes your intention even in:

Typos: "Reiseksotenmanagement" → Travel expense management Typos: "Pesronalplanung" → Personnel planning Incomplete terms: "Travel Manag" → Travel Management The tolerance threshold was increased from 32% to 40%, which leads to significantly better results, especially with longer technical terms.

Advanced filter options In addition to the improved text search, we have also expanded the filtering options:

Certifications: Filter by ISO 27001, SOC 2, GDPR compliance, and other standards Integrations: Find providers that are compatible with your existing systems Company size: From startup to enterprise – suitable solutions for every scale Language support: Providers with a German interface, German support, or DACH presence Segment and Category Navigation The search now also directly recognizes our segments and categories:

Search for 'Travel Management' and land directly in the right area "Finance & Accounting", "Human Resources" or "ESG" will lead you to the appropriate overview Abbreviations like 'T&E' (Travel & Expense) are also understood Technical details for those interested Under the hood we now use:

Fuse.js with optimized configuration for fuzzy matching Bidirectional partial matching for subterms Keyword preprocessing before the actual search Weighted fields for more precise relevance sorting Conclusion: Find instead of search With this update, BenchTrust becomes even more intuitive. You no longer need to know the exact terminology – just describe what you are looking for, and we will find it for you.
