Reference guide for the ZooData commerce API: 22 endpoints, request/response shapes, auth, and credit tracking.

What it does

Documents the ZooData data platform's 22 API endpoints (12 commerce, 10 keyword-intelligence) with their request bodies, response fields, and parameter quirks. Calls go through the bundled `zoodata.py` CLI to `https://api.zoodata.ai/openapi/v2` using `ZOODATA_API_KEY` Bearer auth, and every response reports `meta.creditsConsumed`. Also covers authentication setup, error handling for 401/402/422, and the Local Review Toolkit's Map/Reduce fallback for raw reviews.

When to use it

  • Looking up the endpoint for a specific Amazon metric
  • Checking parameter names before calling an API
  • Diagnosing a 422 validation error
  • Understanding credit consumption per call

The skill document

📋 Live API Reference: Field names and parameters may change. If you encounter field errors, check the latest OpenAPI spec at https://zoodata.ai/api/v1/openapi-spec for current field definitions. Keyword exception: the observation endpoints currently support granularity=week only. Do not reintroduce day, month, lately_day, or lookbackDays from a stale generated schema.

ZooData — Commerce Data Infrastructure for AI Agents

200M+ Amazon products. 22 endpoints. One API key.

Quick Start

  1. Get key: zoodata.ai/api-keys (1,000 free credits)
  2. export ZOODATA_API_KEY='hms_live_xxx'
  3. Base URL: https://api.zoodata.ai/openapi/v2 — all POST with JSON body
  4. Auth: Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_KEY
  5. New keys need 3-5s to activate. If 403, wait and retry.

Capabilities & Data Flow

  • Network: only https://api.zoodata.ai (Bearer ZOODATA_API_KEY). Setting ZOODATA_BASE_URL to an untrusted host (anything other than api.zoodata.ai / *.zoodata.ai / localhost) makes the CLI refuse the request and withhold the key — the Bearer token is never sent to an untrusted host.
  • Execution: bundled shared ZooData CLI {skill_base_dir}/scripts/zoodata.py (Python 3, stdlib-only). This data-layer reference skill allows the complete literal subcommand surface exposed by the bundled client's current top-level help.
  • Local files: none by default; reads the optional credential store ~/.zoodata/config.json; the Local Review Toolkit uses a private temporary working dir (created with mktemp -d, removed when the fallback completes) during the review fallback.
  • Sent to the API: keywords, category paths, ASINs, marketplace/date and numeric filter values only. Never sent: budget, experience level, risk tolerance, or any other user-profile text — profile inputs map client-side to numeric filters.
  • Credits: every API call consumes account credits. For broad or ambiguous requests, state the estimated credit cost and confirm with the user before running multi-call scans.

Shared CLI contract

Before selecting or invoking a bundled CLI command, read and apply references/cli-contract.md; reapply it after every result. It is the local source of truth for invocation, command identity, execution-environment permission handling, composite reuse, exit-status handling, authoritative transport status, retries, terminal interface failures, and partial results.

Local Interface Failure Output

For this API-reference skill, a terminal interface failure must produce one concise localized notice stating that the ZooData API lookup could not be completed, followed by the succeeded and failed endpoint identifiers. Do not continue into endpoint guidance, schema interpretation, or another API call. Do not expose control tokens or internal retry logs unless the user requests diagnostics.

⚠️ Critical API Pitfalls (ALL skills must follow)

  1. Commerce product/market search using a broad query → resolve and lock categoryPath before interpreting category-sensitive product, market, competitor, brand, or price-band results. An explicitly labeled products/search category probe may run without a locked category only to resolve that category. Do not apply this rule to /openapi/v2/keywords/* Keyword Intelligence endpoints: their keyword / query inputs are Amazon search queries and do not require categoryPath.
  2. Brand/price-band queries MUST include --category to avoid cross-category contamination
  3. Revenue = sampleAvgMonthlyRevenue directly. NEVER calculate avgPrice × totalSales (overestimates 30-70%)
  4. Sales = monthlySalesFloor (lower bound). Fallback: 300,000 / BSR^0.65, tag as 🔍
  5. Use API fields directly: sampleOpportunityIndex, sampleTop10BrandSalesRate — never reinvent
  6. reviews/analysis needs 50+ reviews. Fallback chain when sample is insufficient:
    1. Lightweight: realtime/productratingBreakdown (star distribution only, no themes)
    2. Full 11-dim insights: realtime/reviews (raw text, up to 100) + local Map/Reduce via the Local Review Toolkit below — see "Local Review Toolkit" section
  7. Aggregation endpoints (price-band, brand) without categoryPath produce severely distorted data
  8. Price-band and brand endpoints only accept keyword (not categoryPath) — cross-validate returned products
  9. mode is CLI-local, NOT an API parameterzoodata.py expands --mode client-side into the filter sets in PRODUCT_MODES ({skill_base_dir}/scripts/zoodata.py, 13 presets) before the request; sending mode raw → 422
  10. CLI filter flags ≠ API field names--sales-minmonthlySalesMin; --ratings-max (review count) → ratingCountMax, not ratingMax (a different valid field — max star rating — that returns wrong results silently, no 422). Pass categoryPath as a JSON array (["Electronics"]), never a string. Unknown fields (salesMin, ratingsMax, …) → 422

On Missing Key (no credentials configured)

BEFORE calling any endpoint, verify credentials are configured. The reliable check is python {skill_base_dir}/scripts/zoodata.py check — credentials-only by default, no endpoint calls and no credit usage; exits non-zero if no key is found in env vars OR config files. A [ -z "$ZOODATA_API_KEY" ] test alone is NOT sufficient — a user may have only ~/.zoodata/config.json set.

When no key is found through any mechanism:

  1. STOP. Do not run the workflow. Do not call zoodata.py (you'll just get the same credential error and burn tokens).
  2. Do NOT fall back to a "partial analysis from training data" / "industry common-sense headlines" / "for reference only" preview. Your training data is stale, has no per-ASIN granularity, and presenting it as analysis — even disclaimed — misrepresents what this skill produces. The deliverable is data-backed; without data, there is no deliverable.
  3. Tell the user, in their language, all three of:
    • "ZOODATA_API_KEY is not set — I need this to run the analysis."
    • Get a free key (1,000 credits, no credit card): https://zoodata.ai/en/api-keys
    • Configure via one of:
      • export ZOODATA_API_KEY='hms_live_xxx' (session only)
      • mkdir -p ~/.zoodata && chmod 700 ~/.zoodata && (umask 077; echo '{"api_key":"hms_live_xxx"}' > ~/.zoodata/config.json) (persistent; keep the file private — 0600)
  4. Optionally state in one sentence what the workflow will produce once the key is configured (deliverable shape only — no numbers, no market color, no "common sense" preview).

On 401 Invalid Key

When zoodata.py returns a structured error with _transport.status=401, error.status=401, and error.message="API Key invalid or expired":

  1. STOP further endpoint calls immediately. Do not retry — a rejected key won't be accepted on a second try; every subsequent call will return 401 too.
  2. Keep the selected credential authoritative. Do not inspect, compare, export, or switch to a lower-priority legacy credential after rejection. A legacy credential may be selected only when neither new source is configured; trying another endpoint or asking to continue does not change this precedence.
  3. Report to the user:
    • The selected ZooData credential was rejected (likely invalid, revoked, or expired)
    • If any partial findings were collected before the failure, show them and mark as partial
    • Fix at https://zoodata.ai/en/api-keys (verify the key, regenerate if needed)
  4. Do not fabricate or guess the data the failed calls would have returned. This includes "training-data fallback" / "industry common-sense" headlines disguised as preview — those are fabrications.

On 402 Credit Exhausted

When zoodata.py returns a structured error with _transport.status=402, error.status=402, and error.message="API quota exhausted or subscription expired":

  1. STOP further endpoint calls immediately. Do not retry. Do not switch endpoints as a workaround — 402 is account-level (key/subscription), not endpoint-level.
  2. Report to the user with all four of:
    • Which step in the workflow was reached (e.g. "Completed step 3/5: brand analysis")
    • Partial findings already collected (show the actual data, not just a list of completed steps)
    • Returned credit metadata when available; if it is absent, say it was not returned rather than estimating it
    • Top-up link: https://zoodata.ai/en/pricing
  3. Do not fabricate or guess the missing data to "complete" the report. Mark partial findings explicitly as partial. No "training-data fallback" / "industry common-sense" filler — substituting public-knowledge prose for missing endpoint data is still fabrication.

On 422 Validation Error

For every parsed HTTP response from zoodata.py, treat _transport.status as the authoritative outer status; response-body and nested status-like fields do not override it. When the CLI returns HTTP 422 / VALIDATION_ERROR, read the preserved structured server error on stdout, including its message/details and _query.params. Do not retry the unchanged request. Correct the named fields first; the CLI exits non-zero while preserving the server error fields for the calling agent. Keyword endpoints that expose granularity currently accept week only; do not send day, month, lately_day, or lookbackDays.

Known Quirks

  • topN, listingAge, newProductPeriod are strings ("10" not 10)
  • Many search/list endpoints return .data as an array — use .data[0] for the first record. But some commands may return non-array payloads inside data, so inspect the actual response shape before indexing.
  • ratingCount not reviewCount everywhere
  • bsr (int) in products vs bestsellersRank (array) in realtime
  • buyboxWinner.price — NOT top-level price in realtime
  • realtime/product does NOT return: monthlySalesFloor, fbaFee, sellerCount
  • realtime/product cold-start: first call for an uncached ASIN may return success: true with an EMPTY data (asin: "") while the live fetch warms up — retry once after a few seconds before concluding "no data" (still billed 1 credit per call)
  • reviewCountMin/Max filters currently broken (API-56)
  • reviews/analysis may 500 for certain ASINs (API-58) — retry different ASIN
  • Rate limit: 100 req/min, 10 req/sec burst
  • categories uses categoryKeyword (not keyword) and parentCategoryPath (not parentCategoryName)
  • reviews/analysis: mode required ("asin"/"category"), use asins (plural array) not asin
  • realtime/reviews: returns 10 reviews/page fixed (no pageSize param); 1 credit/page; cursor-paginated; hard cap = 100 reviews (10 pages); supports marketplace US/UK only
  • keywords/detail accepts exactly one of keyword / keywords[] (max 20), resolves date to the nearest available weekly snapshot, and returns input-ordered data.items[]; an unmatched item has status=empty, not top-level data: null
  • keywords/market-profile accepts one of keyword / keywords[] (max 20), requires date, supports weekly granularity only, and returns input-ordered data.items[] with status=ok|empty. emptyReason is descriptive no-result text, not an enum. A subject-specific calculation failure can return HTTP 500 for the whole batch.
  • keywords/trend-profile accepts one of keyword / keywords[] (max 20), requires date and 1–4 unique windowPeriods selected from 4/8/12/26, and supports weekly granularity only.
  • keywords/extends requires query (not keyword), uses the latest available weekly snapshot, supports queryType = phrase or fuzzy, and may legitimately return empty data.rows[]; legacy date is optional and ignored
  • All keyword endpoints that expose granularity currently support week only. day, month, lately_day, and lookbackDays are unsupported. Use returned period boundaries instead of inferring a rolling window.
  • Keyword endpoints are keyword-query workflows; for inputs named keyword or query, use the Amazon search query / keyword phrase being analyzed
  • For keyword endpoints that require date or dateTo, prefer T-1 or earlier and avoid the current date unless the user explicitly asks for today's lookup
  • keywords/search-results requires date + keyword; exploreTypes values are ORG, SP, SB, SBV, SPR
  • keywords/competitor-product-keywords and keywords/product-traffic-terms require date + asin; both currently return the same live item shape, including trafficShare
  • keywords/product-traffic-terms-overview requires date + asin; it returns the latest weekly overview of all keyword impression traffic changes under that ASIN at or before the date, compared with the previous period
  • keywords/product-traffic-terms-timeline requires asin + exactly one of keyword / keywords[] + dateFrom + dateTo; the date range cannot exceed 61 days and the series request has no pagination or sort parameters
  • keywords/search-results is the default source for explaining what products currently appear on a keyword SERP because it already returns listing-level product fields
  • products/search is a broader ZooData product-database query and must not be presented as Amazon live keyword SERP ordering

Keyword Intelligence Endpoints

These ten endpoints fill the gap between raw catalog data and search-demand/search-visibility intelligence.

Keyword value boundary:

  • Keyword endpoints provide estimated search, visibility, rank, traffic-share, and impression-point signals
  • They do not provide a seller's first-party ABA Search Query Performance funnel by themselves
  • Treat keyword value, profitability, and conversion potential as directional unless the user supplies ABA-SQP impressions, clicks, cart adds, purchases, click share, purchase share, and conversion rate
  • Seller-artifact acquisition, stage selection, field interpretation, and user-facing output policy belong to the amazon-keyword-traffic-analysis skill. This API reference does not prescribe a blanket caveat or one seller view for every subject.

/openapi/v2/keywords/detail

  • Input: exactly one of keyword / keywords[] (1–20), required date, optional marketplace, granularity=week only
  • Data window: resolves the requested date to the nearest available weekly snapshot at or before that date
  • Date rule: prefer T-1 or earlier for date; avoid current-date lookup unless explicitly requested
  • Response shape: data.context + data.items[], preserving request order
  • Item fields: identity, status=ok|empty, snapshotData, emptyReason, nullable errorCode, nullable errorMessage
  • snapshotData fields include estimateSearchCount, abaRank, Top3 click/conversion shares, marketCharacteristics, totalSkuCount, SKU/brand/title coverage, organic/ad counts, and Top48 benchmarks
  • Do not read legacy estimateSearchCountWeekly, totalSkuCnt, or top-level data:null

/openapi/v2/keywords/market-profile (metric layer)

  • Availability: standard production endpoint under the documented base URL
  • Input: exactly one of keyword or keywords[] (1–20), required date, optional marketplace, granularity=week only
  • Response shape: data.context + data.items[], preserving request order
  • Context fields: requestedDate, resolvedDate, dataWindow.currentPeriod, scoringSpec, marketplace/site/granularity
  • Item fields: identity, status=ok|empty, marketProfile, emptyReason
  • marketProfile dimensions: marketCharacteristics, demandScale, top3Concentration, adActivity, top20OrganicEntryDifficulty, supplySaturation, brandStructure, organicProductBenchmark
  • Interpret scores only with context.scoringSpec (id, version, scoreType, scoreRange, referenceScope). Scored dimensions expose supported, calculationStatus, unsupportedReason, level, interpretation, and levelEvidence.score.{value,direction}. There is no aggregate coverage object.
  • marketCharacteristics.volatility and marketCharacteristics.annualSeasonality are independent evidence objects. Do not collapse their classifications, let one override the other, or invent peak periods from an empty list.
  • Unmatched keywords return status=empty, marketProfile=null, and a descriptive emptyReason; resolved context and scoringSpec may be null
  • A subject-specific calculation failure can currently produce HTTP 500 for the whole batch. Treat it as a service failure, not an item-level empty result; do not automatically fan out all subjects into single calls.
  • Three-layer boundary: use data-layer keywords/detail for source snapshot fields, metric-layer keywords/market-profile for stable deterministic profile objects, and the Agent + skill layer for evidence composition, confidence, explanations, limitations, and actions
  • Metric-first access: call the matching metric before its source data endpoint. Descend only when the Agent needs an indicator or evidence grain omitted by the metric contract, the metric endpoint is unavailable and transparent data-based calculation is valid, no metric exists, or raw evidence is explicitly requested. Incomplete metric calculation coverage is a conclusion limit—not by itself a reason to call same-source data.
  • Batch-first execution: after selecting the endpoint, collect all subjects with identical non-subject context and prefer its batch contract over repeated single calls. Deduplicate case-insensitively, preserve order, chunk compatible sets at the endpoint limit (20 for current keyword batches), and merge results back into global input order. Batch support never justifies an extra cross-layer call.

/openapi/v2/keywords/trend

  • Input: exactly one of keyword / keywords[] (1–20), required dateFrom / dateTo, optional marketplace, granularity=week only; maximum 93-day range
  • Data window: weekly-granularity points across the requested date range
  • Date rule: prefer T-1 or earlier for dateTo; avoid current-date lookup unless explicitly requested
  • Response shape: data.context + data.items[].series[], preserving request order
  • Item fields: identity, status=ok|empty, series[], emptyReason, nullable errorCode, nullable errorMessage
  • Series fields: periodStartDate, periodEndDate, estimateSearchCount, abaRank, abaTop3ClickShareRate, abaTop3ConversionShareRate

/openapi/v2/keywords/trend-profile (metric layer)

  • Input: exactly one of keyword / keywords[] (1–20), required date, required unique windowPeriods[] selected from 4/8/12/26, optional marketplace, granularity=week only
  • Response: data.context + data.items[].rows[]; every requested window returns one row with rowContext, status=ok|empty, emptyReason, and trendProfile
  • Available profiles contain independently guarded searchDemand and abaRank dimensions with trend, trendPattern, and {value,direction} entries under trendEvidence
  • Evidence includes first/last/change values, normalized slope, direction consistency, aligned/eligible period counts, plus demand volatility/window position or ABA best/worst rank
  • Use this metric endpoint before raw keywords/trend for trend-shape and volatility judgments. Descend only for required weekly points or fields omitted from the profile.
  • Preserve null empty reasons rather than inventing one. Billing is per keyword with at least one status=ok window; use returned credit metadata.

/openapi/v2/keywords/extends

  • Input: required query; optional marketplace, page, pageSize, queryType, sortBy, sortOrder; no date is required
  • Important quirk: seed field is query, not keyword; queryType supports phrase and fuzzy
  • Data window: latest available weekly snapshot; a legacy date may be sent but is ignored
  • Response shape: data.context + data.query + data.queryType + data.rows[]
  • Row fields: matchData.{query,keyword,site,relevanceScore} and keywordSnapshot, whose dataWindow.currentPeriod and snapshot metrics use the same current field families as keywords/detail
  • Do not flatten rows to legacy term, seedKeyword, or estimateSearchCountWeekly; empty rows[] is normal

/openapi/v2/keywords/search-results

  • Input: required keyword / date, granularity=week only; optional marketplace, page, pageSize, exploreTypes, sortBy, sortOrder
  • Do not send lookbackDays; day, month, and lately_day are unsupported
  • Data window: latest available weekly period at or before the requested date; use the returned period boundaries
  • Date rule: prefer T-1 or earlier for date; avoid current-date lookup unless explicitly requested
  • Response shape: data.context + data.identity + data.rows[]
  • Row fields include latestObservedAt, exploreType, absolutePosition, pageIndex, pagePosition, asin, title, brand, price, currency, link, imageLink, rating, ratingCount, recentSales, hasVideo, estimateImpressionPoint, keywordTotalEstimateImpressionPoint
  • Interpretation rule: use this endpoint first for "what is on page 1 / what products dominate this keyword / what does the SERP look like"
  • Do not substitute products/search when the question is about observed keyword SERP composition or ordering

/openapi/v2/keywords/competitor-product-keywords

  • Input: required asin / date, granularity=week only; optional marketplace, page, pageSize, exploreTypes, keywordContains, sortBy, sortOrder
  • Do not send lookbackDays; day, month, and lately_day are unsupported; use returned weekly period boundaries
  • Date rule: prefer T-1 or earlier for date; avoid current-date lookup unless explicitly requested
  • Response shape: data.context + data.identity + data.rows[]
  • Row fields include latestObservedAt, exploreType, absolutePosition, pageIndex, pagePosition, asin, keyword, estimateImpressionPoint, asinTotalEstimateImpressionPoint, avgPosition, daysCoverageRate, observationCount, keywordEstimateSearchCount, keywordEstimateSearchChangeCount, keywordEstimateSearchCountChangeRate, keywordAbaRank, keywordAbaRankChangeCount, trafficShare

/openapi/v2/keywords/product-traffic-terms

  • Input: same request shape as keywords/competitor-product-keywords
  • Data window: weekly period selected by date + granularity=week; use returned period boundaries
  • Date rule: prefer T-1 or earlier for date; avoid current-date lookup unless explicitly requested
  • Response shape: data.context + data.identity + data.rows[]
  • Row fields include latestObservedAt, exploreType, absolutePosition, pageIndex, pagePosition, asin, keyword, estimateImpressionPoint, asinTotalEstimateImpressionPoint, avgPosition, daysCoverageRate, observationCount, keywordEstimateSearchCount, keywordEstimateSearchChangeCount, keywordEstimateSearchCountChangeRate, keywordAbaRank, keywordAbaRankChangeCount, trafficShare
  • Live validation note: current live response item shape matches keywords/competitor-product-keywords field-for-field; keep the semantic distinction in output wording rather than assuming a unique schema

/openapi/v2/keywords/product-traffic-terms-overview

  • Input: asin, date, optional marketplace
  • Data window: latest weekly overview snapshot at or before the requested date; compares all keyword impression traffic under the ASIN with the previous period
  • Date rule: prefer T-1 or earlier for date; avoid current-date lookup unless explicitly requested
  • Response shape: data is an object or null
  • Key fields from live MCP response: periodStartDate, periodEndDate, asin, site, organicImpressionPoint, sponsoredProductImpressionPoint, sponsoredBrandImpressionPoint, sponsoredBrandVideoImpressionPoint, sponsoredRecommendImpressionPoint, organicImpressionPointPrev, sponsoredProductImpressionPointPrev, sponsoredBrandImpressionPointPrev, sponsoredBrandVideoImpressionPointPrev, sponsoredRecommendImpressionPointPrev, first3PagesNewOrganicKeywords, first3PagesLostOrganicKeywords
  • *Prev fields are previous-period baselines for the matching current impression-point fields
  • The legacy response returns only the current periodStartDate / periodEndDate; it does not return separate previous-period boundaries. A *Prev field may be null or absent when no previous-period value is available.
  • first3PagesNewOrganicKeywords and first3PagesLostOrganicKeywords are arrays of objects with keyword, pageIndex, and pagePosition
  • first3PagesNewOrganicKeywords lists keywords newly entering ORG first three pages; first3PagesLostOrganicKeywords lists keywords that dropped out of ORG first three pages
  • Live validation request: MCP tool openapi_v2_product_traffic_terms_overview, asin="B01CGLCGRA", date="2026-06-29", marketplace="US"

/openapi/v2/keywords/product-traffic-terms-timeline

  • Input: required asin, exactly one of keyword / keywords[] (1–20), dateFrom, dateTo, granularity=week only; optional marketplace
  • Do not send lookbackDays, page, pageSize, sortBy, or sortOrder; day, month, and lately_day are unsupported
  • Data window: ASIN + keyword timeline across the requested date range; date range cannot exceed 61 days
  • Date rule: prefer T-1 or earlier for dateTo; avoid current-date lookup unless explicitly requested
  • Response shape: data.context + data.items[].series[], preserving keyword request order
  • Item fields: identity, status=ok|empty, series[], emptyReason, nullable errorCode, nullable errorMessage
  • Each series point groups fields under asinSnapshot, traffic, placement, keywordMetrics, and adActivity; keep their returned period boundaries separate
  • Diagnosis curves/events: price (asinSnapshot.latestPrice), BSR (asinSnapshot.latestBsr, asinSnapshot.latestSubBsr), sales (asinSnapshot.latestMonthlySaleCount), rating (asinSnapshot.latestRating, asinSnapshot.latestRatingCount), traffic estimate (traffic.* plus placement averages), and listing events (asinSnapshot.latestTitle, asinSnapshot.latestMainImageLink)
  • Key groups: listing/product/rank fields in asinSnapshot; ORG/SP/SB/SBV/SPR impression points in traffic; positions/pages/observation times in placement; weekly search/ABA fields and metricWindow in keywordMetrics; observation/campaign/ad counts in adActivity

Local Review Toolkit

When /reviews/analysis lacks aggregation (ASIN has <50 reviews or no daily snapshot), fall back to live raw reviews + your own LLM. The toolkit does NOT call any external LLM — you (the calling skill's LLM) perform the Map/Reduce steps.

Workflow:

# 1. Fetch raw reviews (up to 100, cursor-paginated, ~60s, 10 credits at full)
zoodata.py reviews-raw --asin B0XXXXXXXX [--marketplace US] [--max-pages 10]

# 2. For EACH review, render the per-review Map prompt
zoodata.py review-tag-prompt --review '' \
    [--product-title "..."] [--product-category "..."]
# → Your LLM produces a JSON object with sentiment + 11 dimension arrays
#   (mentioned_scenarios, mentioned_issues, mentioned_positives, mentioned_improvements,
#    mentioned_buying_factors, mentioned_pain_points, user_profiles, mentioned_usage_times,
#    mentioned_usage_locations, mentioned_behaviors, keywords)
# Suggested map parallelism: ~20 concurrent if your LLM supports it

# 3. Collect candidate phrases per dimension. For EACH dimension render the Reduce prompt
zoodata.py review-reduce-prompt --label-type positives \
    --candidates '["comfortable","comfy","very comfortable",...]'
# → Your LLM produces {clusters: [{canonical, members}, ...]}
# Suggested chunk size for `keywords` dim when >150 candidates: 150 per call

# 4. Aggregate into reviews/analysis-compatible consumerInsights
zoodata.py review-aggregate --reviews raw.json --tagged tags.json --clusters clusters.json
# → Output shape matches /reviews/analysis: reviewCount, avgRating,
#   sentimentDistribution, consumerInsights[], topKeywords[]

When to use the toolkit instead of reviews/analysis:

  • ASIN has fewer than 50 reviews
  • reviews/analysis returns sparse consumerInsights (missing dimensions)
  • Need the freshest possible data (Spider scrape vs. T+1 BigQuery snapshot)
  • Need to analyze a brand-new product that has no daily snapshot yet

Set ZOODATA_API_KEY and send `Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_KEY` against base URL `https://api.zoodata.ai/openapi/v2`. All endpoints are POST with JSON body. New keys need 3–5 seconds to activate; if you get 403 on the first call, wait and retry.
How are credits tracked per request?
Every response includes `meta.creditsConsumed`. Broad or multi-call scans add up quickly, so confirm the estimated cost with the user before running large workflows.
What does the Local Review Toolkit do?
When `reviews/analysis` has fewer than 50 reviews, the fallback chain calls `realtime/reviews` (up to 100 raw reviews) and runs a local Map/Reduce in a temp directory to produce the 11-dimension insights that `reviews/analysis` would normally return.
