Yesterday• 2 min read

When a new feature lands or a campaign goes live, a flood of reviews arrives. Finding the signal amid that noise can feel like hunting for a needle in a haystack. The Review Sentiment Aggregator turns that chaos into a clear, actionable snapshot in seconds.

Review Sentiment Aggregator

1. Overview

The Review Sentiment Aggregator reads a set of customer reviews and produces a concise summary that tells you the overall feeling (sentiment) of the customers and highlights the most common pain points they mention.

2. Business Value

• Customer Insight – Quickly see how customers feel about the product.
• Prioritization – Identify the most frequent problems so the product team can focus on fixing what matters most.
• Efficient Reporting – Provides a ready-to-share summary for product managers, marketers, and leadership without manual analysis.

3. Operational Context

• When to run – After a product release, a marketing campaign, or any period when a batch of customer feedback has been collected.
• Who uses it – Product managers, product owners, and marketing analysts who need a quick, data-driven view of customer sentiment.
• How often – As often as new review data is available (e.g., weekly, after each launch, or on a scheduled cadence).

1. Verify Input
   Confirm the list of reviews contains at least one entry.
2. Assign Sentiment to Each Review
   Scan the Review Text for words and phrases from the Sentiment Keyword List.
3. Extract Potential Pain Points
   Search the Review Text for any phrase that matches a Pain-Point Keyword.
4. Aggregate Pain-Points
   Normalize similar phrases using the Pain-Point Normalization Table.
5. Rank Pain Points
   Sort the aggregated pain-points by frequency, descending.
6. Calculate Overall Sentiment
   Count the number of Positive, Negative, and Neutral reviews.
7. Compose the Summary Report
   Write Overall Sentiment and provide Sentiment Breakdown.
8. Produce Output
   Assemble the report exactly as described.

7. Validation & Quality Checks

• Input Presence – Ensure at least one review with non-empty text is present; otherwise, abort and flag for manual review.
• Sentiment Consistency – Re-run the word-count check for each processed review.
• Pain-Point Normalization – Verify that each extracted phrase matches a term in the Pain-Point Keyword List.

8. Special Rules / Edge Cases
