The AI Reviews Playbook — Summaries, Replies, Smart Prompts

What you’ll learn

  • How to write an AI-summary prompt that survives brand-tone QA
  • A reply-suggestion template per review-star band (1★ through 5★)
  • Smart-prompt UX: nudging fence-sitters into completion without prompting fraud
  • PDP placement rules — where the AI rollup belongs and where it kills CR
  • Hallucination guardrails: the three checks before any AI text ships

Chapter previews

  1. Chapter 01

    Why aggregated reviews beat individual ones

    Eye-tracking studies + Idukki A/B data on PDP scroll depth. The 4-of-400 problem.

  2. Chapter 02

    Prompt anatomy for AI summaries

    System prompt + brand voice + fact-checking layer. A version controlled prompt file you can hand to engineering.

  3. Chapter 03

    Reply suggestions, star-band by star-band

    1★ requires empathy. 5★ requires brevity. 3★ is the trap. Templates for each.

  4. Chapter 04

    Smart prompts without fraud risk

    Adaptive form prompts that surface what customers actually noticed about the product — without leading them to fake words.

  5. Chapter 05

    Placement: above-the-fold or below?

    Idukki A/B data on summary placement across 31 stores. Above-the-fold wins on mobile only when it's under 60 chars.

  6. Chapter 06

    Guardrails

    Source-grounding, brand-blocklist, max claim length, no medical-or-financial-advice rules.

Three days from "let's look at AI summaries" to "they're live on 6,000 PDPs". The fact-check layer kept legal happy.
