Time to Review provides actionable insights into the speed at which your product collects reviews and ratings on Amazon, empowering you to optimize your product launches and outperform competitors in your category.
What Is Time to Review?
Time to Review is a data-driven benchmarking tool that measures the number of days it takes for a product to reach its first 20, 50, and 100 reviews on Amazon. ProductWind benchmarks your product against four top-selling ASINs in the same category, or can compare it to your own product listings. By leveraging this data, you’ll be able to track how quickly a Product Launch campaign drives reviews/ratings to your listing.
Why It's Important
Speed is everything. Reaching key review milestones quickly is a strong predictor of long-term success on Amazon. Products that hit 20 reviews within the first two weeks are more likely to become best-sellers, while the average product takes about six months to reach this point. Achieving reviews quickly can lead to a 108% increase in sales, boost conversion rates, and improve product visibility in search results.
With Time to Review, you can see exactly how fast your product is gaining reviews compared to competitors.
How It Works
The Time to Review tool provides:
- Benchmarking data that compares your product’s review accumulation against top competitors.
- Insights into how quickly your product reaches 20, 50, and 100 reviews, which are critical indicators of your product’s launch success.
- The ability to benchmark your products against each other, or competitors so you can track the performance of multiple listings.
By tracking this data, you’ll gain an understanding of how quickly your product is moving from launch to maturity, allowing you to refine your marketing efforts accordingly.

FAQs:
How many products can I benchmark against?
You can track up to three products simultaneously using the Time to Review tool. This allows you to gain a comparative understanding of how your product is performing in terms of review accumulation relative to a select few competitors or your own existing listings.
Is this feature available for all campaign types?
The Time to Review feature is specifically designed for those who are running a Product Launch campaign on Amazon. This focus allows the tool to provide the most accurate and actionable insights during the critical early stages of your product's life cycle.
Can Time to Review be measured if my product is variated?
No, Time to Review cannot be measured if your new ASIN is variated to an existing ASIN during the campaign period. Variating an ASIN can lead to discrepancies in review tracking, making it difficult to accurately assess the performance of your product. To ensure that you can effectively utilize the Time to Review tool, it's essential to maintain your product as a distinct ASIN throughout the benchmarking process.
