Introducing the Insights Agent: Consumer Insights, Without the Wait

Turning Product Review Sentiment Analysis Into Clear Shopper Insights

Consumer data is everywhere. Yet most teams still struggle to answer the most basic questions about what shoppers actually want, what’s driving performance, and what to do next. It’s because the tools are slow, disconnected, and built for a different era.‍

For decades, CPGs and retailers have operated within a rigid system. One that forces teams to choose between good, fast, or cost-effective. You can commission expensive research. You can hire analysts to slice syndicated dashboards. You can even ask a GPT to summarize reviews.‍

But none of that works at the speed your business moves. None of it speaks shopper truth with confidence. And none of it was designed to empower you in the moment a decision needs to be made.‍

That changes today.‍

The Insights Agent Is Here‍

The Harmonya Insights Agent is not just another chatbot. And it’s much more than just a quicker way to summarize product reviews. It’s your on-demand insights analyst. One that turns shopper feedback, product data, and sales performance into fast, contextual answers that help you move.‍

Now, you don’t have to wait for research, nor do you have to scramble to answer urgent questions. You just ask… and act.‍

Built on Harmonya’s proprietary enrichment and data infrastructure, the Insights Agent sits on top of structured product knowledge, consumer language, and verified sales performance. It’s designed to be flexible: as your business evolves, the Insights Agent evolves with it, integrating additional sources and adapting to your taxonomy.‍

And it's not just the data foundation that's strong. The Insights Agent was shaped by real-world work with leading global brands like Coca-Cola, Mars, PepsiCo, Nestlé, and more. It was developed after answering hundreds of strategic questions across insights, category, and innovation teams.

The problems it solves are not hypothetical, they’re the same ones we’ve solved repeatedly with the most sophisticated teams in CPG and retail.

Why Current Tools Fall Short‍

Let’s be honest about how most teams get answers today:

  • You pull syndicated data and manually search for signals
  • You submit tickets to analytics teams and wait weeks
  • You launch a survey but aren’t sure what to ask
  • You scan reviews, Reddit threads, and Google Trends hoping for inspiration
  • Or you try a consumer-facing GPT tool and get generic summaries with no grounding in real business performance

Each one solves for part of the problem. None of them solve for all of it. What CPG teams need is not another place to search, they need a conversational interface that links them to contextual sales, product, and review data.‍

Granular, Verified Insights. 10x Faster. Meet Agentic Intelligence

The Harmonya Insights Agent introduces a new model for understanding shoppers. One that works with the sales data you already have and ratings and reviews tied to your products, all layered with enriched product intelligence and structured through your taxonomy.‍

The Insights Agent is the layer that sits on top of everything else, built to synthesize reviews, product attributes, and POS performance into a single, intelligent stream of insight.‍

And most importantly, you can ask anything. Seriously...anything your team would ask of a custom study, internal analyst, or retailer portal. The Insights Agent is built to handle real questions, not just predefined filters.‍

How It Works‍

At the heart of the Insights Agent is Harmonya’s proprietary product and review intelligence infrastructure:

  • We collect product reviews, PDPs, and brand language from 300+ retail and ecommerce sites
  • We extract 20,000+ granular product tags that describe flavors, claims, benefits, textures, use occasions, and more
  • We connect those tags to item-level sales data, so you can see not just what people are saying, but what’s selling
  • We turn all of this into an agent-ready knowledge base that supports natural language queries, real-time discovery, and contextualized decision-making

So, just ask a question and get an answer that’s fast, factual, and actually useful.‍

What You Can Ask (and Why It Matters)‍

Across every function, Harmonya customers are already using the Insights Agent to move faster, make smarter decisions, and stay ahead of competitors.‍This isn’t a gimmick. These are real prompts with real answers the Insights Agent has delivered, and they show what’s possible when review data, product attributes, and sales performance are working together.‍

For Shopper Insights or Brand teams looking to validate ingredient positioning: "What percent of reviews that mention avocado oil are positive, and how does this compare to the rest of the tortilla chip category?"‍

In this exchange, the Insights Agent immediately surfaces that avocado oil reviews are not only common, but more positive than the category average.

It quantifies consumer perception (86.3% positive sentiment) and contextualizes why it matters: shoppers who care about avocado oil aren’t just trying something trendy, they’re also more satisfied. This supports premium pricing and marketing strategy.

For Category and Innovation teams identifying whitespace or unmet needs: "What are consumers saying about sulfate-free shampoos, and how does that differ across brands?"

This answer unpacks multiple layers: shoppers value gentle cleansing, hydration, and ingredient purity, but also note a short adjustment period. The Insights Agent identifies themes like scalp health, peace of mind, and hair type variation — all tagged and categorized — and offers to compare sentiment by hair type or treatment needs.

It’s the kind of depth that helps teams reposition existing lines or shape future NPD.

For Ecommerce or Marketing teams optimizing PDPs and messaging: "What do shoppers love most about natural ingredient shampoos?"

In this exchange, the Insights Agent pulls rich, emotional shopper language: words like “soothing,” “hydrating,” “deep moisture,” and “pleasant scent”. It links them to brand-specific feedback about why each one resonates and how those insights can inform PDP copy, ad language, or packaging claims.

You don’t even need to know exactly what you’re looking for.

The Insights Agent helps you explore, validate, and refine your thinking in real time, whether you’re reacting to a leadership ask, crafting a retailer pitch, or figuring out which benefit claims actually convert.

Why This Changes Everything

The Insights Agent gives teams what they’ve been missing for years:

  • Speed to insight without sacrificing context or quality
  • Shopper-grounded language enriched with sales performance
  • Exploration and explanation, not just dashboards and downloads
  • Cross-functional relevance for Insights, Category, Marketing, and Innovation teams
  • Repeatability and scale so insights don’t live in one person’s head or one team’s report
  • It’s a faster way to ask, a smarter way to explore, and a clearer way to decide.

It’s already cut time-to-insight from three weeks to 30 seconds for a Fortune 100 CPG.

Not Just Ask. Actually Answer.

You may have seen other tools claiming to summarize reviews in a chatbot. Great, if all you want is directional chatter and broad sentiment.

But Harmonya’s Insights Agent does what others can’t:

  • It connects reviews to real product performance
  • It quantifies emerging trends with actual POS data
  • It enables deep analysis, not just quick checks
  • It’s built on a proprietary data pipeline, not public prompts

If you want to compare, validate, shape strategy, or build a sell-in story, you need something much more robust than just a review aggregator.

The Insights Agent is the only solution that pairs consumer language, enriched attributes, and verified sales data into one cohesive intelligence layer. It helps you answer why something is happening, not just what people are saying.

What Comes Next

This is just the beginning. Over time, the Insights Agent will become the unified interface for all product and shopper data: ingesting internal, external, and enriched sources to support every part of your decision-making pipeline.

This is where analytics meets action and where feedback meets facts. It’s the future of insights, and it’s already working for Harmonya’s customers.
