What is Meilisearch?

Run Meilisearch on your own VPS in one click.

Meilisearch is an open-source search engine that gives your website, store or app instant, typo-tolerant results while users type, so someone searching for “wirless headphones” still lands on the right product. Meilisearch hosting at ZAP-Hosting puts that engine on your own KVM VPS: choose one of 9 VPS plans, deploy Meilisearch in one click via Coolify, and your search API is online within minutes without writing a single Docker compose file.

Full root access makes the server yours. Set your own master key, tune ranking rules and synonyms, close unused ports with the firewall and run your backend or storefront right next to the search engine on the same VPS. Your documents stay on a server you control, and growing search traffic never turns into a per-request bill.

Run Meilisearch on your own VPS in one click.

Features

Fast, relevant search on your own VPS

Typo-tolerant search-as-you-type, hybrid semantic results and a clean REST API, running on a server you fully control.

Federated multi-index search

One search bar returns products, articles and docs together in a single merged list.

Search-as-you-type with typo tolerance

Users find the right product or page with every keystroke, even when they misspell it.

Hybrid semantic search

Queries also match by meaning, so “cheap laptop” finds “budget notebook” too.

Developer-friendly REST API

Your app gets JSON search results from one HTTP call, with official SDKs for many languages.

Index stats at a glance

See how many documents each index holds and how large your database has grown.

Private by default

Only your app and team reach the index, thanks to a master key and scoped API keys.

Locations in Europe and America

FAQ

Frequently asked questions about Meilisearch

Answers to the most important questions before you start.

Order a VPS plan, open the One-Click Apps tab in your dashboard and choose Meilisearch. Coolify deploys the official container with persistent storage, so you need no manual Docker or compose setup. Make sure a strong master key is set in the app's environment variables, then send your first documents to the API. Learn more in the Help Center

Yes. The Meilisearch community edition is open source under the MIT license, so the software itself costs nothing. With Meilisearch hosting at ZAP-Hosting you only pay for the VPS plan it runs on, with no per-search or per-document fees.

You pay a flat monthly price for the VPS plan, not per search request or document. Plans scale by RAM, CPU and NVMe storage, and the pricing section on this page shows live prices for every package, so you can start small and move to a larger plan as your index grows.

On a ZAP-Hosting KVM VPS in one of our locations in Europe and America. Pick the one closest to your users; many North American projects start with Ashburn, Dallas or Los Angeles. Meilisearch stores its index on disk and benefits from free RAM for fast lookups, so requirements grow with the number and size of your documents. Start with a smaller plan for a test index and scale up as your catalog grows.

Yes. Every VPS is a KVM virtual server with full root access via SSH. You can run your own backend, storefront or API next to Meilisearch on the same VPS, deploy more apps through Coolify and configure the system exactly as you need. All apps on the VPS share its resources.

Run Meilisearch with a strong master key, give your frontend just a search-only API key, serve it over HTTPS through Coolify's proxy and close every port you don't need with firewall rules. Read the firewall guide

  • Set a strong master key
  • Use scoped, expiring API keys
  • Serve traffic over HTTPS
  • Restrict ports with a firewall

Setup is automated: your VPS is usually online within 60 seconds of ordering, and the Coolify deploy of Meilisearch takes only a few more minutes. After that you can send your first documents straight to the API.

Yes, you can cancel anytime. You choose the term when you order, and your plan keeps running until the end of the term you picked.

Why is my Meilisearch indexing so slow?
Indexing runs as background tasks. Check the task queue for failed or enqueued batches, send documents in larger batches instead of one by one, and compare RAM and disk usage in your dashboard. If memory stays maxed out during imports, a larger VPS plan gives the indexer more headroom.
How do I check the task queue?
Call GET /tasks with an admin key and filter by status, for example statuses=failed. Each task shows its type, duration and any error message.
