Use case — product research

Scrape Amazon reviews for voice-of-customer research

Pull thousands of Amazon reviews with rating, date, verified badge, and helpful votes. Feed them to Claude for sentiment analysis or category-leader benchmarking.

The problem

Why your current scraper doesn't cut it

Amazon reviews are the richest voice-of-customer data source on the web. Product managers, ecommerce founders, and agencies use them to find positioning gaps, surface feature requests, and benchmark category leaders. The problem is pulling them — Amazon's review pages are heavily A/B tested and most scrapers break within a week.

Stekpad re-learns the review DOM automatically. You click one review, Stekpad highlights the rest, and the recipe captures rating, title, body, verified badge, helpful votes, and date. Then Claude does the analysis.

Step-by-step

How to do it with Stekpad

  1. 1

    Open the reviews page of any Amazon product

    Navigate to "See all reviews" on the product detail page. Stekpad works on the standard review list view.
  2. 2

    Click a review

    Stekpad detects the review pattern and highlights every review on the page. Add fields: rating, title, body, verified badge, date, helpful votes.
  3. 3

    Let Stekpad paginate through all reviews

    The recipe walks through every review page up to Amazon's hard limit (10,000 most recent). For top products this is a 20-30 minute run.
  4. 4

    Hand the corpus to Claude for analysis

    Pipe rows to a Google Sheet or straight into Claude via the MCP server. Ask Claude to surface top complaints, feature requests, and positioning gaps.

Is Web Scraping Legal in 2026? A Practical Guide

Authoritative legal overview covering: hiQ v. LinkedIn (public data scraping is generally lawful in the US), CFAA limits (don't bypass authentication mechanisms you weren't authorized to access), GDPR considerations for EU personal data, robots.txt (advisory, not legally binding), and ToS clauses (civil risk, not criminal). Structured as a decision tree: if you're scraping public data → generally fine; if behind a login → only safe if it's your own session; if personal data of EU citizens → add anonymization. Positions Stekpad's browser-native model as the lowest-risk technical approach.
