Analyze Shopify reviews

Shopify itself no longer holds your reviews — the Product Reviews app was sunset, so the export lives in whichever review app you use.

Getting the file

01Open your review app: Judge.me, Loox, Okendo, Yotpo or whatever you installed.
02Find its own export — in Judge.me it is under Settings, and it emails you the file when there are more than 25 reviews.
03Upload that CSV here.

Before you trust the file

A file in hand is not the same as an answer. Below is what Shopify's export leaves out, what to do when it is not enough, and how its columns line up with the three the analyzer needs.

What to watch for

Shopify sunset its own Product Reviews app, and its help centre now documents migrating those reviews to another app rather than exporting them.
Judge.me caps an export at 100,000 reviews per file; past that you filter by product or date range, or use their API.
Under 25 reviews downloads immediately. More than that is prepared in the background and emailed to the addresses in your admin notification settings, so check there rather than waiting on the page.

If that does not work

If your app has no export, paste the reviews from your product pages. The free run takes thirty at a time.

Mapping the columns

Review-app exports are usually wide — product handle, reviewer, title, body, rating, date, reply. Map the body, the rating and the date; leave the rest alone and they come back untouched.

What the analyzer looks for in Shopify reviews

Each review is checked against every label separately, and a label is attached when its probability is 0.65 or higher — so one review can be about two topics at once. The definitions below are the ones the model is given, word for word.

Product quality: The reviewer comments on how well made the item is — materials, finish, whether it works as described, or whether it arrived defective.
Shipping & delivery: The reviewer comments on how long delivery took, the carrier, tracking, or the state of the parcel on arrival. Damage caused in transit counts here as well as under quality.
Price & value: The reviewer comments on the price, on whether the item was worth what they paid, or on a discount or price change.
Sizing & fit: The reviewer comments on size, fit, or dimensions — runs small, runs large, does not match the size chart, does not fit the space or device it was bought for.
Customer service: The reviewer describes contact with the seller or support: response time, helpfulness, or being ignored.
Packaging: The reviewer comments on the packaging itself — how it was boxed, excess or insufficient material, presentation, or whether it was suitable for a gift.
Returns & refunds: The reviewer describes returning the item, requesting a refund or exchange, or the cost and difficulty of doing so.
Durability: The reviewer comments on how the item held up over time — broke after a period of use, wore out, or is still going strong after months.

How severity is scored

Severity rates the problem, not the wording. Reviews at 4 or above are counted as urgent.

1Positive or neutral feedback. Nothing is wrong and nothing needs fixing.
2A minor gripe stated in passing. The reviewer is broadly satisfied and would buy again.
3A real problem that annoyed the reviewer but did not stop them using what they bought.
4A significant problem: the item or app did not do what they needed, or they wasted real time or money on it.
5A severe problem. The reviewer was harmed, lost money they have not recovered, is warning other buyers off, or reports a safety or data issue.

What you get back

A summary counted in code — the sentiment split, topics ordered by how many negative or mixed reviews they hold, and three real quotes per topic — plus two downloads:

reviews-analyzed.csv — one row per review with 10 fixed columns, then a decision and a probability for every label.
review-summary.json — the same summary the page shows, for your own reporting.
A needs-a-reply flag on each review, set when its probability is 0.5 or more, so the customers still waiting are not lost in the counts.

Columns: review_index, review_text, rating, review_date, sentiment, sentiment_confidence, severity, severity_confidence, needs_response, needs_response_probability

Questions about Shopify reviews

What if I cannot get a file out of Shopify?

If your app has no export, paste the reviews from your product pages. The free run takes thirty at a time.

Which columns should I map?

Review-app exports are usually wide — product handle, reviewer, title, body, rating, date, reply. Map the body, the rating and the date; leave the rest alone and they come back untouched.

How many Shopify reviews can I analyze for free?
