Ensuring Customers Have a Trustworthy Reviews Experience

Customer reviews on Amazon are a core part of why customers love shopping in our stores. Our goal is to ensure that every review in Amazon’s stores is authentic and reflects customers’ actual experiences.

Here are three ways Amazon leverages our proactive efforts, partnerships with others and enforcement actions to stop fake reviews.
Innovating to Deliver Authentic, Informative Customer Reviews

We obsess over helping customers feel confident in their buying decisions. To make it even easier for customers to understand the common themes across reviews, Amazon leverages generative AI on product pages to highlight product features and overarching customer sentiment.

Preventing and Stopping Reviews Abuse
Amazon proactively blocked more than 250 million suspected fake reviews from our store in 2023.

Amazon invests significant resources to proactively stop fake reviews before being seen by a customer. We use a combination of sophisticated tools and expert investigators to find and stop abusive behaviour, and take legal action against fake review brokers who try to deceive our customers.
