Abstract
An online concierge system receives a search query from a client device. The online concierge system identifies a set of matching items from an item database. The matching items correspond to the received search query. The online concierge system obtains, from a hierarchical item taxonomy, a category label for each matching item. The item taxonomy relates each item in the item database to one of a plurality of category labels. The online concierge system groups the matching items by the category labels for each of the matching items into one or more groups. The online concierge system generates instructions for a user interface. The user interface includes a scrollable list of one or more carousels. Each carousel includes a scrollable list of a group of the one or more groups. The online concierge system sends the instructions of the user interface to the client device for display.
