Amazon Reviews Scraper

amazon.com

Amazon shows its full review list only to signed-in customers: the review pages answer a signed-out visitor with the sign-in page. What a product page shows without login is a public slice - the overall rating and review count, the 1-5 star histogram, the AI-generated Customers say summary and the top reviews - and that slice is what this plugin returns. Give it an ASIN with a marketplace, or a product URL, and it returns the rating, the total review count, the share of each star, the Customers say summary with each aspect's sentiment, mention counts and the review quotes Amazon shows for it, and the top reviews, typically 5 to 13, local ones first and then reviews from other countries, each with author, rating, title, text, date and country, the verified-purchase flag, helpful votes, the variant and images. When Amazon puts a sign-in prompt in place of the top reviews, which is common on amazon.com, reviewsGated is true and reviews is empty, while the rating, histogram and Customers say data still come back. It is not an export of every review a product has.

What you can extract

• Product title, overall star rating and the total review count
• The 1-5 star histogram as a share per star
• Amazon's AI Customers say summary, with each aspect's sentiment, mention counts and summary
• The review quotes Amazon shows for each aspect, with the review id and link
• The top reviews Amazon shows signed-out visitors, typically 5 to 13: author, rating, title, text, date, country and language
• Verified-purchase flag, helpful votes, the product variant and review images
• reviewsGated: true when Amazon shows a sign-in prompt in place of the top reviews

How to scrape it

curl -X POST \
  -H "X-ScrapeUnblocker-Key: $SU_API_KEY" \
  "https://api.scrapeunblocker.com/marketplace/amazon-reviews?asin=B07PXGQC1Q&marketplace=amazon.com"

import requests

resp = requests.post(
    "https://api.scrapeunblocker.com/marketplace/amazon-reviews",
    headers={"X-ScrapeUnblocker-Key": SU_API_KEY},
    params={"asin": "B07PXGQC1Q", "marketplace": "amazon.com"},
)
print(resp.text)

import { ScrapeUnblockerClient } from 'scrapeunblocker';

const su = new ScrapeUnblockerClient({ apiKey: process.env.SU_API_KEY });

const results = await su.amazonReviews({
  asin: 'B07PXGQC1Q',
  marketplace: 'amazon.com',
});
console.log(results);

Requests are POST and take their parameters in the query string. Browser rendering always happens - there is no flag to enable.
