AI-guided reviews

Reviews with the detail shoppers look for.

A short chat after purchase asks one or two questions about the product. We draft the review from the shopper's own answers, and they approve it before it's posted.

Same product, same shopper

A blank text box gets "Love it!" A chat gets the story.

Most shoppers don't know what to write, so they write one line. A couple of good questions is all it takes to get what they made, how it held up and what surprised them.

Love it!! So soft 😍

Soft enough for a baby blanket

I made a baby blanket for my niece and it's so soft. The sage colour is gorgeous. It's been washed three times on cold already with no pilling at all. The colour was a little greener than it looked on my screen. I'm ordering the oatmeal shade next.

How it works

Four steps, about three minutes.

  1. 01

    They rate it

    The review request opens on five stars. One tap, and the chat starts in the right tone for that rating.

  2. 02

    A couple of questions

    Follow-ups are written for the product and what they just said: what they made, how it held up, what surprised them.

  3. 03

    A photo at the right moment

    After their second answer, one friendly ask for a photo. Never for an unhappy review.

  4. 04

    They edit and approve the draft

    The chat turns their answers into a draft. They can change any word, add more, or go back to the chat, then tap "Looks good, submit".

Their words, not ours

Every detail comes from the shopper.

The chat only drafts the review, from what they typed. Nothing is added that they didn't say or turned into marketing copy, and nothing is posted until they've read the draft, changed what they want and submitted it.

  • Every claim in the draft has to trace back to the shopper's own answers
  • Their wording is kept wherever it reads clearly
  • They can edit the text, change the stars or go back to the chat before submitting

Shoppers type a median of 25 words in the chat. The review they publish has 28.

Handled for you

Built for the reviews that don't go to plan.

Unhappy customers

One calm acknowledgement, no arguing and no promises. If the order went wrong, the chat offers to have someone from your team reach out, and the review is flagged for you.

One-word answers

A short reply gets a specific, easy question back instead of a quiz. The submit button appears once there is enough for a useful review.

On a phone

Most reviews are written on a phone, so the chat is built for one: full screen, big tap targets, photos straight from the camera roll.

Questions about AI-guided reviews

Does the AI write the review?

It drafts it from what the shopper typed in the chat. Every detail in the draft has to come from their own answers, in their own wording where possible. The shopper then sees the full draft, can edit every word or go back to the chat, and submits it themselves.

How long does it take a shopper?

About three minutes, with two replies, at the median. The submit button appears as soon as there is enough for a useful review, and shoppers can keep going if they want to add more.

What happens with an unhappy customer?

The chat acknowledges the problem without arguing or promising anything, never asks for a photo, and when something went wrong with the order it offers to have someone from your team reach out. The review is flagged for you in moderation.

Where do shoppers start the chat?

From your review request email, from the Write a review button in the widget, or from the review hub when they bought several products. Reviews from your request emails are marked as verified buyers.

Can I make it sound like my brand?

Yes. Your brand voice, product details and existing reviews are used to phrase the questions, and the chat takes your colours, corners, font and logo from the conversation editor, with a live preview.

Which languages does it support?

English today.
