How to use the Search Intent Classifier.
A keyword can carry mixed intent. Use the supplied result pages and modifiers to explain the classification instead of assigning certainty from one word.
Make the workflow fit your task.
Read the query alongside supplied result types and the visitor's likely next action. Classify the dominant intent, recording secondary possibilities when the evidence supports more than one interpretation.
- What you provide
- Keywords and supplied search results.
- What you get

Decisions and troubleshooting.
Can a search query have mixed intent?
Yes. A product term may lead to explanations, comparisons or a tool. Describe the mixture rather than reporting unsupported certainty.
Why does an intent label conflict with the supplied results?
Give the actual result pages more weight than a single modifier. Recheck whether the sample represents the intended audience and location.
Try it with your own source.
Replace the example with your material in the task prompt. Keep the requirements you need, then copy the task into WebAct.
