TL;DR
AskARB is an AI assistant that analyzes your app reviews and answers questions about them. Instead of reading through hundreds of reviews manually, ask AskARB what users are saying — and get actionable insights in seconds.
- Ask questions in plain English — "What are users complaining about this week?"
- Get summarized insights — Feature requests, bugs, and sentiment trends
- Generate reply drafts — AI-crafted responses you can edit and post
- Spot patterns faster — Identify issues before they become crises
The Problem: Too Many Reviews, Not Enough Time
Product teams know their app reviews contain valuable insights. Users tell you what's broken, what they want, and what they love. The problem? Reading through hundreds of reviews is impractical.
Most teams either:
- Skim reviews randomly and miss important feedback
- Assign someone to manually categorize reviews (time-consuming and inconsistent)
- Ignore reviews entirely and rely on other feedback channels
None of these approaches scale. AskARB changes that.
What AskARB Does
AskARB is an AI assistant built into AppReviewBot. It reads and understands your app reviews, then answers questions about them conversationally.
Ask Questions, Get Answers
Instead of searching through reviews manually, just ask:
- "What are the top 5 feature requests from the last month?"
- "Are users mentioning any crashes after the latest update?"
- "What do users like most about our app?"
- "Summarize negative reviews from this week"
AskARB analyzes your reviews and returns a clear, actionable summary.
Generate Review Replies
Need to respond to a review but not sure what to say? AskARB can draft replies based on the review content. You review, edit, and post — saving time while maintaining a personal touch.
Sentiment Analysis
Track how user sentiment changes over time. AskARB identifies:
- Trending positive — What users are praising
- Trending negative — What's causing frustration
- New issues — Problems that appeared recently
How It Works
AskARB uses large language models (similar to ChatGPT) that have been fine-tuned for app review analysis. When you ask a question:
- Context gathering — AskARB pulls relevant reviews based on your query
- Analysis — The AI identifies patterns, themes, and specific examples
- Response generation — You receive a clear summary with actionable insights
The AI understands app-specific context: feature names, common user issues, platform differences between iOS and Android, and typical review patterns.
Practical Use Cases
Product Planning
Before your next sprint planning, ask AskARB: "What are the most requested features?" You'll get a ranked list based on how often users mention each request — data to prioritize your roadmap.
Bug Triage
After a release, ask: "Are users reporting any new issues?" AskARB surfaces crash reports, bugs, and UX problems so you can respond quickly.
Competitive Insights
If you're monitoring competitor apps, ask: "What do users dislike about [competitor app]?" Understand where competitors fall short and where you can differentiate.
Customer Support
When responding to reviews, ask AskARB to draft a reply. The AI considers the review's tone and content to generate an appropriate response.
What AskARB Is Not
To set realistic expectations:
- Not a replacement for reading reviews — It's a tool to surface patterns and save time, but you should still read individual reviews for context
- Not 100% accurate — AI can misinterpret nuance; always verify insights before acting
- Not automatic — You ask questions and get answers; it doesn't automatically take actions
