AI Review Summary: Highlight the voice of the customer to boost purchases

Consumers spend an average of 2 to 4 minutes reading reviews and usually go through about ten of them before making a purchase. However, time spent on product pages is decreasing (-8% between 2022 and 2023), proving that consumers want quick and effortless access to essential information!

That’s where the AI Review Summary comes in.

This feature automatically analyzes all your customer reviews and generates, directly on your product widget, a clear, authentic, and multilingual summary. This summary highlights key positive and negative points about your product.
It helps shoppers make quicker, more confident decisions while enhancing the value of your customer feedback.

How does it work?

AI generates automatic and reliable analysis

  1. The AI identifies products with at least 10 relevant reviews (from all sources).
  2. It analyzes the comments to extract key topics and their sentiment (positive or negative).
  3. A short summary (under 150 characters) is generated to reflect the overall customer opinion of the product.
  4. An automatic check ensures the quality and representativeness of the summary.
  5. The summary is updated weekly whenever over 20% of new reviews are collected for that product.

FAQ

Will adding the Review Summary to my product widget affect its performance?

The Review Summary is an additional sub-feature supported by the product widget. However, its impact on widget load time is negligible (only a few bytes), as the summary is generated on our servers, outside the widget. The widget simply displays pre-generated content without performing any calculations.

How can I be sure the AI-generated summary is authentic?

The summary is based on organic, syndicated, or gifted reviews already published on the site. All reviews go through our moderation process before publication, ensuring authenticity. Also, flagged reviews are excluded from the summary.

Will it be stated that the summary is AI-generated?

Yes, the summary includes a note that says “This summary is generated by AI.” This disclosure is mandatory for AI agents that automate tasks (like analysis and generation) without human intervention, in compliance with the European AI Act.

What are the trigger thresholds for the review summary?

At least 1 purchase in the last 3 months: indicates the product is actively sought-after and relevant for consumers.
At least 10 reviews: ensures review diversity to avoid biased or unrepresentative summaries.
Over 20 characters per review: allows the AI to detect meaningful positive/negative feedback (e.g., “great!” [6 characters] vs. “very comfortable and easy to assemble” [36 characters]).

How long is the review summary?

The AI-generated summary can be up to 150 characters long. This ensures clear, impactful, and quick readability for consumers.

What about data security?

Input data is hosted and stored in a secure environment. We prioritize data protection and confidentiality. All processing takes place within our secure infrastructure, and no client data is shared with third-party providers outside of our secure cloud platform.
