## What's an Apify Actor?

Actors are a software tools running on the Apify platform, for all kinds of web data extraction and automation use cases.
In Batch mode, an Actor accepts a well-defined JSON input, performs an action which can take anything from a few seconds to a few hours,
and optionally produces a well-defined JSON output, datasets with results, or files in key-value store.
In Standby mode, an Actor provides a web server which can be used as a website, API, or an MCP server.
Actors are written with capital "A".

## How to integrate an Actor?

If asked about integration, you help developers integrate Actors into their projects.
You adapt to their stack and deliver integrations that are safe, well-documented, and production-ready.
The best way to integrate Actors is as follows.

In JavaScript/TypeScript projects, use official [JavaScript/TypeScript client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js.md):

```bash
npm install apify-client
```

In Python projects, use official [Python client library](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python.md):

```bash
pip install apify-client
```

In shell scripts, use [Apify CLI](https://docs.apify.com/cli/docs.md):

````bash
# MacOS / Linux
curl -fsSL https://apify.com/install-cli.sh | bash
# Windows
irm https://apify.com/install-cli.ps1 | iex
```bash

In AI frameworks, you might use the [Apify MCP server](https://docs.apify.com/platform/integrations/mcp.md).

If your project is in a different language, use the [REST API](https://docs.apify.com/api/v2.md).

For usage examples, see the [API](#api) section below.

For more details, see Apify documentation as [Markdown index](https://docs.apify.com/llms.txt) and [Markdown full-text](https://docs.apify.com/llms-full.txt).


# README

### Trustpilot Review Intelligence Monitor

Turn raw Trustpilot company reviews into **complaint themes, evidence quotes, urgency scores, public-response drafts, and client-report bullets**. This Actor analyzes Trustpilot review records collected by another Apify Actor or supplied inline; it does not scrape Trustpilot directly.

Instead of returning another spreadsheet of review text, it gives brand, ecommerce, and agency teams a clean action dataset: what customers complain about, what they praise, which reviews need attention, and what to do next.

<!-- revenue-machine:workflow-hub:start -->
### Workflow Hub

See the public [review intelligence workflow](https://geneiusk.github.io/apify-actor-powerhouse-hub/review-intelligence.html) for the scraper dataset -> analyzer path and links across the review-intelligence Actors. For the first run, use the [Trustpilot review tutorial](https://geneiusk.github.io/apify-actor-powerhouse-hub/trustpilot-review-tutorial.html) or the [Trustpilot Review Intelligence alternatives page](https://geneiusk.github.io/apify-actor-powerhouse-hub/trustpilot-review-intelligence-monitor-alternatives.html). The [proof GIF](https://geneiusk.github.io/apify-actor-powerhouse-hub/assets/trustpilot-review-proof.gif) shows reviews becoming a reputation queue.
<!-- revenue-machine:workflow-hub:end -->

### What You Learn

- Which reviews are positive, negative, or mixed
- Which themes keep appearing: support, refunds, delivery, pricing, product quality, trust, and experience
- Which complaints deserve urgent follow-up
- Which positive reviews can become Trustpilot widget copy, landing-page proof, or ad proof
- Which exact quote explains the theme and priority score
- Which reply draft or workflow bucket to use
- What action to take for each review

### Use Cases

- Weekly Trustpilot reputation monitoring for brands and agencies
- Refund, delivery, and support complaint triage
- Public-response prioritization for reputation teams
- Brand-proof mining from positive Trustpilot reviews
- Review exports to Google Sheets, Slack, dashboards, or reporting decks

### Input

You can provide reviews inline or pass an Apify `datasetId` from another review scraper.

```json
{
  "businessName": "Northstar Software",
  "sourceName": "Trustpilot",
  "reviews": [
    {
      "rating": 1,
      "text": "Support ignored my refund request after a delayed delivery.",
      "authorName": "Example Customer",
      "date": "2026-05-01"
    }
  ],
  "maxReviews": 100,
  "includeRawReview": true
}
````

### Output

Each dataset item is one analyzed review:

```json
{
  "status": "succeeded",
  "recordIndex": 1,
  "billingEventName": "trustpilot-review-analyzed",
  "businessName": "Northstar Software",
  "sourceName": "Trustpilot",
  "rating": 1,
  "sentimentLabel": "negative",
  "sentimentScore": -100,
  "detectedThemes": ["support", "refunds", "delivery"],
  "complaintThemes": ["support", "refunds", "delivery"],
  "urgencyScore": 95,
  "priorityReason": "Money-related complaint is likely to escalate without follow-up.",
  "workflowCategory": "urgent_public_response",
  "proofQuote": "Support ignored my refund request after a delayed delivery.",
  "replyNeeded": true,
  "ownerResponseDraft": "Thank you for raising this. We are sorry the refunds experience with Northstar Software fell short...",
  "recommendedAction": "Escalate refund and cancellation complaints for Northstar Software; these reviews can become visible trust blockers.",
  "analyzedAt": "2026-05-12T12:00:00+00:00"
}
```

The run also writes a `SUMMARY` key-value-store record with analyzed counts, sentiment counts, top complaint themes, top urgent reviews, praise quotes, client-report bullets, and the charge event name.

### FAQ

#### Does this scrape Trustpilot?

No. It analyzes Trustpilot review records you provide inline or through an Apify dataset from another Actor. It is an intelligence layer, not a Trustpilot scraper.

#### What input do I need for the first run?

Use the Store example with one or more review records. At minimum, each record should include review text, and ratings improve sentiment and urgency scoring.

#### What do I get back?

One dataset item per analyzed review, including sentiment, complaint themes, urgency, proof quote, public-response draft, and recommended next action. The run also writes a `SUMMARY` record.

#### Can I use data from another review scraper?

Yes. Pass a `datasetId` from another Actor or paste inline records. The analyzer recognizes common review fields such as `text`, `reviewText`, `rating`, `stars`, `authorName`, `date`, `reviewUrl`, `companyName`, and `companyDomain`.

#### How much does it cost?

The configured paid event is `trustpilot-review-analyzed` at `$0.004` per successfully analyzed review.

### Pricing

Default monetization model: pay per event.

Recommended chargeable event:

- Event name: `trustpilot-review-analyzed`
- Event meaning: one successfully analyzed review
- Store price: `$0.004` per analyzed review
- Pricing status: active from `2026-05-13T19:04:19Z`; verified by private and public paid smokes

Successful rows are pushed only after the charge path allows the event. If `Actor.charge` fails, the Actor fails closed before returning paid output.

### Limitations

- This MVP analyzes review records; it does not scrape Trustpilot directly.
- Review source schemas vary. The Actor recognizes common fields such as `text`, `reviewText`, `rating`, `stars`, `authorName`, `date`, `reviewUrl`, `companyName`, and `companyDomain`.
- Theme detection is deterministic and intentionally explainable. It is built for reliable monitoring, not black-box sentiment theater.

### Automation And Agent Use

- Run a review scraper first, then pass its dataset ID to this Actor.
- Schedule weekly analysis for each brand, product line, or Trustpilot domain.
- Send negative high-urgency reviews to Slack or a ticketing queue.
- Append `sentimentLabel`, `detectedThemes`, and `recommendedAction` to Google Sheets for client reporting.
