Direct answer
What is a practical Fakespot alternative after the shutdown?
Use a workflow that keeps the exact product visible and turns review evidence into an actionable decision. ReviewBot adds the product card, price-drop watch, and multi-product group around that assessment.

Frequently asked questions
What happened to Fakespot and Firefox Review Checker?
Mozilla announced that Firefox Review Checker shut down on June 10, 2025 and Fakespot’s extensions, mobile apps, and website shut down on July 1, 2025. The official Mozilla announcement is linked on this page.
Is ReviewBot a browser extension?
ReviewBot uses a Telegram workflow instead: paste the exact product, cart, or list link, inspect the recognized items and preflight, then confirm the action you need.
How does ReviewBot assess reviews?
It prioritizes useful, recent, and contrasting review evidence, then summarizes recurring complaints, concrete pros and cons, uncertainty, and a cautious buying verdict rather than relying on rating volume alone.
What else can I do with the same product?
Open its current product card, start Price Watch for a verified drop of at least 10%, or add it to an editable group with a cart, list, or several exact product links.
How much does it cost?
Standard review analysis starts at $0.10 and Deep costs $0.40 per delivered result. A Price Watch target reserves $0.50 and captures it only after a qualifying alert is delivered. The exact marketplace-aware price and ETA appear before confirmation.
Is VUST affiliated with Fakespot or Firefox?
No. VUST is independently operated and is not sponsored, endorsed, or affiliated with Fakespot, Mozilla, or Firefox. The names are used only to explain the shopper’s alternative workflow.
