A multimodal search platform is an advanced search system that enables users to retrieve information using multiple input types, including text, voice, image, and video, simultaneously. It uses artificial intelligence (AI), natural language processing (NLP), and computer vision to interpret and connect data across different modalities, providing more accurate, intuitive, and context-aware search experiences. These platforms are increasingly adopted across industries such as e-commerce, healthcare, and media to enhance user engagement, improve information discovery, and deliver more personalized results.
The key components of a multimodal search platform are software, hardware, and services. Software refers to the AI-powered applications and algorithms that allow users to perform searches using multiple input formats such as text, images, voice, and video, enhancing accuracy, context understanding, and user experience. These platforms are deployed through on-premises and cloud models, serving organizations of all sizes, including small and medium enterprises (SMEs) and large enterprises, and are applied across industries such as e-commerce, healthcare, media and entertainment, retail, banking, financial services and insurance (BFSI), information technology (IT) and telecommunications, and others. The key end users include enterprises, individual users, government organizations, and others.
Note that the outlook for this market is being affected by rapid changes in trade relations and tariffs globally. The report will be updated prior to delivery to reflect the latest status, including revised forecasts and quantified impact analysis. The report's Recommendations and Conclusions sections will be updated to give strategies for entities dealing with the fast-moving international environment.
The rapid escalation of U.S. tariffs and the resulting trade tensions in spring 2025 are significantly impacting the information technology sector, particularly in hardware manufacturing, data infrastructure, and software deployment. Higher duties on imported semiconductors, circuit boards, and networking equipment have raised production and operational costs for tech firms, cloud service providers, and data centers. Companies relying on globally sourced components for laptops, servers, and consumer electronics are facing longer lead times and increased pricing pressures. In parallel, tariffs on specialized software tools and retaliatory measures from key international markets have disrupted global IT supply chains and reduced overseas demand for U.S.-developed technologies. To navigate these challenges, the sector is accelerating investments in domestic chip fabrication, diversifying supplier bases, and adopting AI-driven automation to enhance operational resilience and cost efficiency.
