Smart Prompts

Written by David

Overview

Smart Prompts help consumers write more useful reviews by suggesting topics to cover as they write.

Topics appear below where they write their review, and as they type, the topics they've addressed are automatically ticked off. This encourages them to mention the things shoppers care about most when making a purchase decision, driving more sales on your site and across retailer sites where your reviews will be displayed.

Results

Expect to see a greater number of high quality reviews and increased sales conversion on sites where your reviews are published.

  • Reviews collected using Smart Prompts were more often judged useful when helping a shopper decide whether to buy a product.

  • Reviewers covered nearly 50% more product attributes per review – exactly the details shoppers look for when choosing products.

  • Positive, one-line reviews like “love it!” dropped by a over a third for top-performing products, replaced by richer, more insightful reviews that encourage shoppers buy.

How it works

  1. Topics appear — When a consumer reaches the review step, a set of suggested topics appears below the text area (e.g. "Suggested topics: Coverage · Finish · Shade match · Application · Staying power").

  2. Real-time matching — As the consumer types, AI reads their review and identifies which topics they've covered. It understands meaning, not just words — so writing "it glides on smoothly" will match Application even though the word "application" isn't used.

  3. Visual feedback — Matched topics get a tick and fade to the end of the list, while unaddressed topics stay prominent. Consumers are never blocked from submitting — the prompts are suggestions, not requirements.

Good to know

  • Reviewers don't need to use exact words. The matching is based on meaning, so a reviewer writing naturally will get topics ticked off without realising it.

  • Prompts are suggestions, not requirements. Consumers can submit a review at any point, whether or not they've covered all the topics.
