What Is the Marketing Data Extractor?
Marketing Data Extractor is a Google Sheets add-on built by Smacient. It lets you pull Amazon reviews data, social media posts, app store reviews, and other marketing data directly into a structured spreadsheet, without needing developer access, API keys, or third-party scraping tools.
For Amazon reviews data specifically, the add-on bypasses the 100-review limit that Amazon’s default display enforces and gives you up to 500 reviews per product in a single run, structured into clean, sortable columns ready for analysis.
Why Amazon Reviews Data Matters
Amazon reviews are one of the richest sources of unsolicited customer feedback available to marketers. Unlike surveys, reviews are written without prompting. Customers describe their real experiences in their own words, which makes the data invaluable for:
- Voice of customer (VOC) research and messaging development
- Identifying product defects before they become return rates
- Competitive intelligence on rival product weaknesses
- Category entry analysis for new product launches
- Ad copywriting informed by real customer language
The problem has always been getting Amazon reviews data out of Amazon’s interface and into a format your team can actually work with. Scrolling through pages, copying and pasting, and filtering by hand can take the better part of a working day for a single product. At scale, it becomes a project in itself.
What You Can Extract
Here is a breakdown of everything the add-on pulls from each product’s Amazon reviews data:
Up to 500 reviews per product. Use “All Stars” mode to extract up to 500 reviews, going well beyond what Amazon displays by default.
Star rating filters: Pull only 1-star and 2-star reviews, only positive reviews, or all ratings at once.
Keyword filtering:g Filter reviews that contain specific keywords like “battery life”, “durability”, or “return”.
Verified purchase flag: Include only reviews from verified buyers to remove noise from unverified submissions.
20+ Amazon regions Covers amazon.com, amazon.co.uk, amazon.de, amazon.fr, amazon.co.jp, amazon.ae, and 15+ more storefronts.
Full review row data. Each review populates as one row: rating, title, full text, reviewer name, helpful votes, review date, and product variant.
Step-by-Step Setup Guide
This takes about two minutes from install to your first Amazon reviews data extraction.
Step 1: Install the Add-On
- Go to the Google Workspace Marketplace and search for “Marketing Data Extractor” or follow the direct install link from the Marketing Data Extractor product page.
- Click “Install” and grant the required Google Sheets permissions. No credit card is needed. You start with 30 free credits.
- Open any Google Sheet. The add-on will now appear under Extensions in your menu bar.
Step 2: Prepare Your ASIN or Product URL List
- In column A of your sheet, paste the ASINs or full Amazon product URLs you want to extract reviews for. You can list one or several products.
- ASINs look like B07CMS5Q6P. Full product URLs from any Amazon storefront also work. The add-on handles both formats without any manual cleanup required.
Step 3: Open the Add-On and Set Your Filters
- Click Extensions in the top menu, then select Marketing Data Extractor from the dropdown.
- In the add-on panel, choose “Amazon Reviews” as your data source.
- Set your filters: select your target star rating (1 star, 2 stars, positive, critical, or all), toggle “Verified only” if needed, add a keyword filter if you want targeted Amazon review data around a specific topic, and choose your Amazon region.
- Select the column that contains your ASINs or URLs as your input range.
Step 4: Run the Extraction
- Click “Extract”. The add-on will begin pulling Amazon reviews data and populating rows in your sheet in real time.
- Each review lands as its own row with clean column headers: Star Rating, Review Title, Review Text, Reviewer Name, Verified Purchase, Helpful Votes, Review Date, and Product Variant.
- Once complete, your Amazon review data is ready to sort, filter, or feed into formulas. No reformatting required.
