The next time you are thinking about buying a new product but you don’t have time to visit multiple product review sites to figure out which product is best for you, you might want to take a look at Reviewgist.com. Reviewgist’s sophisticated engine trawls well-known review sites and then dissects reviews by pulling out the subjective opinions. For example, if a reviewer expressed an opinion like “The camera takes good photos”, the Reviewgist semantic engine would be able to figure out that the reviewer had expressed a positive opinion about the picture-taking capabilities of the camera. The Reviewgist engine would then add this opinion to the other opinions about the product.

In their own words
“ReviewGist gathers review information for different products from almost all trusted online review sites. Our patent pending deep semantic analysis engine then takes over and extracts out the subjective opinion from these collected reviews. Essentially, we figure out the specific opinions expressed by the reviewer about the product in question.”
Why it might be a killer
By saving you time and giving you a more accurate review through multiple opinions, Reviewgist should become increasingly popular for people seeking product review information.
Some questions
How accurate is their engine? It seems like there would be a lot of room for error given that they are allowing a program to extract subjective user opinions. Still, this is probably something that will continually improve over time.
