BuyShield – Product Safety & Review Intelligence by Helpful Extensions

BuyShield analyzes Amazon product pages to tell you what sellers don't want you to know — before you buy.

What BuyShield checks: • Fake review detection — flags inflated or incentivized reviews • AI-generated review % — identifies machine-written content • Review quality drop — alerts you if ratings fell in the last 30 days • Verified purchase ratio — how many reviews are actually verified • Seller trust signals — fulfillment type, listing age, BSR rank

How it works: Navigate to any Amazon product page and click the BuyShield icon. Within seconds you get a Trust Score out of 100, a Buy / Wait / Skip recommendation powered by Gemini AI, and a breakdown of every risk signal detected.

Why BuyShield vs. competitors: Most review checkers only grade the reviews. BuyShield combines heuristic analysis with live AI to surface quality trends, conversion signals, and fake review patterns that tools like Fakespot miss entirely.

Features: • Works on 20 Amazon storefronts (US, UK, AU, CA, DE, JP and more) • Track products and view score history over time • Full report with trend charts and detailed breakdown • Heuristic scoring works offline — no API key required for basic use • 3 free AI analyses included
