Product Sentiment Analysis
Overview
The Product Sentiment Analysis tool is your one-stop shop for everything product-related. It synthesises all product feedback into a single, cohesive report, transforming raw review volumes into an evidence-based view of customer "love" and "pain points" at both the SKU and category levels.
By moving beyond simple star ratings, this tool provides the granular insights needed to build a data-driven product roadmap and optimise your e-commerce presence.
Why Use Product Sentiment Analysis?
-
Granular SKU Insights: Go beyond average ratings. Analyze sentiment scores and topic splits (positive vs. negative) to understand exactly why a specific product succeeds or fails.
-
Faster Time to Resolution: Stop manually sifting through thousands of reviews. The tool automatically surfaces what customers care about most, saving hours of manual labor.
-
Listing Optimisation: Identify "winning" features to highlight in product descriptions or address common "pain points" in your FAQs to reduce return rates.
-
Evidence-Based Roadmap: Use the Sentiment Impact Score to decide which product to fix next or identify emerging trends across your entire catalog.

The Summary Tab
The Summary Tab provides a holistic overview of your entire product line’s health.
| Graph | Description |
| Period Selection |
Compare performance fluctuations over time. Selectable ranges include:
|
| Sentiment Dial | A high-level visual representation of your brand health, measured on a scale of -1 to 1. |
| Global Location of Reviews |
An interactive map displaying review distribution.
|
| Topics Over Time | Track the top five most-mentioned topics (e.g., Ease of Use, Design, Price, Noise Level, Sizing). Example: You might notice "Price" staying stagnant for months before peaking in 2023, signaling a shift in customer sensitivity that requires action. |
| Best & Worst Performing Products | This table uses a Weighted Average (combining review volume and sentiment score) to calculate a Sentiment Impact Score. This helps you identify which products are driving your reputation and which are dragging it down. |
| Top Positive & Negative Topics |
Powered by Tag Analytics, this table provides summaries of what people are saying about specific themes. Note: Clicking any link in these tables will automatically take you to the Deep Dive tab, pre-filtered to that selection. |
The Deep Dive Tabs
The Deep Dive section is split into two views: Topic Focus and Product Focus.
| Graph | Description |
| Action Matrix |
Similar to Tag Analytics, this plots Sentiment Score against Topic Mentions.
|
| Topic Performance & Verbatim |
|
| Product Deep Dive Tab |
This tab follows the same structure as the Topic Deep Dive but shifts the focus to Individual SKUs.
