Introduction
Online reviews are instrumental in influencing consumer decisions. As a result, effective and efficient review analysis is essential for businesses. SerpApi has developed a practical tool that streamlines this process by harnessing both the capabilities of ChatGPT, and SerpApi: SerpApi's ChatGPT Review Analyzer Chrome Extension.
How SerpApi's ChatGPT Review Analyzer Works
The role of ChatGPT in review analysis

By using artificial intelligence, natural language processing (NLP) techniques, and SERP data, the extension can extract valuable insights from reviews, generating concise summaries, sentiment analysis, and keyword extraction.

Sentiment analysis
SerpApi's ChatGPT Review Analyzer can ascertain the overall sentiment of a review, classifying it as positive, negative, or neutral. This feature allows users to gauge general opinions about a product or service without reading every review in depth.

Review summarization
The extension employs ChatGPT to produce concise summaries of extensive reviews, emphasizing the most critical points. This feature lets users grasp the crux of a review without dedicating time to reading the entire text.

Keyword extraction and Topic Modeling
The tool can identify and extract relevant keywords from reviews, offering users a snapshot of the most frequently mentioned topics. This feature assists users in recognizing patterns and trends in customer feedback and opinions, allowing them to concentrate on specific areas of interest or concern.
This is actually also a bit of my personal area of interest. We have a variety of transformer models for on-demand labeled classification. But when it comes to generating labels for these, we haven't got many approaches. In one of my previous blog posts, I covered Latent Dirichlet Allocation (LDA) algorithm for label generation. LLMs prove to be useful in doing the same thing for the batches. A chain of batches, and selection of the most common labels between results has the possibility to provide label generation. This function could be used to classify a larger corpus of text for a variety of purposes beyond reviews.
