About this add-on
RLX Search Engine for LifeRaft OS
RLX Search Engine is the private indexed retrieval layer behind LifeRaft OS discovery.
Vendor-neutral private search infrastructure with relevance ranking, approved-site crawling, URL submission, incremental updates, permission checks, and operational controls. Use it when a customer package needs a focused capability that should stay optional, sellable, and supportable.
- Portable SQLite and MySQL document index with weighted exact-title, prefix, keyword, body, boost, and recency ranking
- Approved-domain URL submission and bounded crawler for a LifeRaft OS site or other sites you are authorized to index
- Incremental core updates plus full rebuild, coverage health, crawl status, provider diagnostics, and stale-record pruning
- Permission rechecks before indexed forum threads or posts are returned to a visitor
Capabilities and outcomes
How RLX Search Engine improves the build
The overview above identifies the core capability. These supporting outcomes help a project owner judge whether the add-on belongs in the package.
Adds a sellable capability without forcing unrelated workflows into every package
RLX Search Engine can be packaged as an optional upgrade, bundle component, or project-specific module
Platform builds that need RLX Search Engine without forcing it into every install
Standalone value
What it does by itself
RLX Search Engine can run as its own Platform workflow. By itself, it focuses on Portable SQLite and MySQL document index with weighted exact-title, prefix, keyword, body, boost, and recency ranking, Approved-domain URL submission and bounded crawler for a LifeRaft OS site or other sites you are authorized to index, and Incremental core updates plus full rebuild, coverage health, crawl status, provider diagnostics, and stale-record pruning, so a customer can use the module without buying every related add-on first.
Standalone means it does not have to be cross-linked with other add-ons. It still runs inside LifeRaft OS and requires a valid core LifeRaft OS license.
Connected value
What improves when related add-ons are active
When the customer also owns and activates related modules such as RLX Search, RLX Search Ads, RLX Search GSC, RLX Analytics, and RLX Taxonomy, RLX Search Engine can hand off data, links, reporting, access control, content, or follow-up steps into those workflows. Those connections are optional and depend on the package being built.

Can RLX Search Engine run by itself?
RLX Search Engine can run as its own Platform workflow. By itself, it focuses on Portable SQLite and MySQL document index with weighted exact-title, prefix, keyword, body, boost, and recency ranking, Approved-domain URL submission and bounded crawler for a LifeRaft OS site or other sites you are authorized to index, and Incremental core updates plus full rebuild, coverage health, crawl status, provider diagnostics, and stale-record pruning, so a customer can use the module without buying every related add-on first.
Do I need the other add-ons mentioned on this page?
No. Related add-ons are optional package pairings, not required purchases unless a project specifically needs that wider workflow. RLX Search Engine should still explain a useful standalone job before any connected modules are considered. Standalone means it does not have to be cross-linked with other add-ons. It still runs inside LifeRaft OS and requires a valid core LifeRaft OS license.
What changes when related add-ons are active?
When the customer also owns and activates related modules such as RLX Search, RLX Search Ads, RLX Search GSC, RLX Analytics, and RLX Taxonomy, RLX Search Engine can hand off data, links, reporting, access control, content, or follow-up steps into those workflows. Those connections are optional and depend on the package being built.
Which add-ons work well with RLX Search Engine?
RLX Search Engine commonly pairs with RLX Search, RLX Search Ads, RLX Search GSC, RLX Analytics, RLX Taxonomy. Active pairings depend on the package, customer workflow, and installed add-ons.
What should be decided before launching RLX Search Engine?
RLX Search Engine should be launched with its real data model and public routes in mind. Optional integrations: rlx-search, rlx-search-ads, rlx-search-gsc, rlx-analytics, rlx-taxonomy, rlx-brands.
How much does RLX Search Engine cost?
RLX Search Engine has a $64.85 Advanced add-on license. The add-on requires a valid Personal, Professional, Creator, or separately agreed LifeRaft OS core license.
What support is included for RLX Search Engine?
Enhanced add-on support indicates a broader or more operationally involved module. Exact response scope and duration are confirmed with the licensed package and core edition. Personal includes 3 months, Professional includes 6 months, and Creator includes 12 months of core support and updates.
How ready is RLX Search Engine for deployment?
Production module: packaged for normal licensed deployment, subject to the hosting, configuration, and integration checks described in the documentation.
How does RLX Search Engine fit into a real LifeRaft OS build?
Activate RLX Search Engine and review its add-on settings. Configure the module settings and permissions. Add the records, content, media, or rules this module manages. Review public pages and backend empty states before launch.
Does the public page include implementation details?
No. The public page explains customer value, package fit, related modules, and launch expectations. Setup steps, route details, data structures, hooks, and operator-only notes stay in the licensed add-on documentation.
