Fuzzy search locates content likely to be relevant to a search argument even if that content does not exactly match the search query. It uses a fuzzy matching program, which returns results with likely relevance.

Optimizely Search & Navigation's "Fuzzy search" replicates the "fuzzy query" in Elasticsearch.

client.Search<MyIndexedObject>()
  .Filter(x => x.Author.MatchFuzzy("henric", 0.8))
  .GetResult()
