Review Miner tools (4)
write = sends, deletes, buys or postsRead from the package source without running it. The installed server may list more.
review_compare_appsCompare recent reviews of 2-8 competitors side by side: rating, negative share and top complaint terms per app, plus a few negative samples each. Use it to find gaps that every competitor fails at (= product opportunity).
review_fetchFetch recent reviews for one app/game and return stats (rating mix, rating per version, top complaint terms) plus the most helpful review texts. Best for 'why do users hate X?'.
review_search_appsFind an app/game and its ID by name. Returns IDs in 'store:id' form for the other tools.
review_top_appsList the current top charts (App Store by category, or Steam top sellers / most played / new releases). Use this to pick competitors before fetching their reviews.

What the publisher says

review-miner-mcp
<!-- mcp-name: io.github.alialtunar/review-miner-mcp -->
Find out what users hate about your competitors. An MCP server that mines public App Store and Steam reviews so Claude (or any MCP client) can turn thousands of complaints into product opportunities.
No API keys. No scraping. One line to install.
You: What do users hate about the top health & fitness apps in Turkey?
Claude: [review_top_apps → review_compare_apps]
• Strava: the most upvoted complaints ask for Turkish. "I was going to buy
Premium but I'm deleting it because there is no Turkish support."
• OKOK (smart scale): 61% of recent reviews are negative. You have to watch
ads before the app shows your own weight.
• MAC+: login and verification-code errors ("hata veriyor") dominate.
• HUAWEI Health: can't log in after switching phones or after updates.Summarized from real tool output: Turkish App Store, 1 Oct 2026, 150 recent reviews per app.

Install
Requires uv.
Claude Code
claude mcp add review-miner -- uvx review-miner-mcpClaude Desktop / Cursor (claudedesktopconfig.json / .cursor/mcp.json)

}
}Tools
Prompts: findopportunities (category → product gaps), competitorteardown (one app, love vs hate).
Every tool supports country (e.g. tr, de, us) and response_format (markdown / json).
Try these
- "Compare the reviews of the top 5 finance apps in Turkey. What does every one of them get wrong?"
- "Did Duolingo's latest version lower its rating? Show rating by version."
- "What do negative Steam reviewers of Cyberpunk 2077 complain about, and how many hours had they played?"
- "Run find_opportunities for health-fitness in Germany."
Limits (set by the sources)
- App Store: most recent ~500 reviews per country (Apple's feed limit).
- App Store: Apple's review feed is sometimes empty for an app/country for a while. The server retries equivalent feed URLs automatically; if all are empty it tells you so instead of reporting "no reviews". Retrying a few minutes later or trying another country usually works.
- Steam: most recent reviews, filtered by language (english, turkish, all...).
- Results are cached for 15 minutes; concurrency is capped to stay polite.
