Abstract

Methods, systems, and storage media for refining search queries through interactive conversational exchange are disclosed. Exemplary implementations may receive a first search input from a user describing a desired asset such as an image. Aspects implementations may also interact with the user via a chat interface to solicit additional details about the desired asset in response to the first search input, construct a search query based on the first search input and the additional details solicited from the user, and submit the search query to a search service to retrieve relevant asset data for the user.
