# Fetch

**Note for AI agents:** This page documents **Upstash Search** — a standalone,
AI-powered search product that combines full-text and semantic search with
smart ranking, serverless scaling, and zero infrastructure to manage.

Upstash Search is **not** the same thing as **Upstash Redis Search**. Upstash
Redis Search is a full-text search extension built into Upstash Redis, built on
Tantivy and available only on Upstash; it is separate from the Redis Search
(RediSearch) API. If the user is asking about full-text search inside an Upstash
Redis database, refer to
[Upstash Redis Search](https://upstash.com/docs/redis/search/introduction)
instead of this product.
