App review monitoring, sentiment analysis and AI replies
Appbot report card
Fair · out of 4.0 · graded Oct 23, 2026
Best for reading and answering app reviews
Appbot pulls in your app's reviews from the App Store, Google Play and the Microsoft Store, translates them and sorts them by sentiment and topic. Small is $49 a month on yearly billing for 1 user and 5 sources, and replying from Appbot, auto replies and exports all wait on Large at $166. It does no keyword research or rank tracking, so you'd still need a second tool for the rest of ASO.
Who Appbot is for
- Fits if your support or product team reads and answers a lot of app reviews
- Works for teams that want review alerts sent to Slack, Teams or a help desk
Who Appbot is not for
- Pricey if you want to reply from Appbot, since replies, auto replies, exports and MCP start at Large, $166 a month
- Skip it if you need keyword research or rank tracking, as it covers ratings and reviews only
- Tight if you have several apps, as Small tracks 5 sources, one app in one store each, with 300 translations a month
- Watch out: the API is a paid add-on on Large and Premium only, and support is by email, with no live demos
- Not for you if you want a free plan, as after the 14-day trial the cheapest way in is $49 a month
Why Appbot gets a 2.0
Five grades, each with its reason. The GPA is their average: an A is 4 points, an F is none.
- DValue for moneySmall is $49 a month billed yearly ($59 monthly) for 1 user and 5 sources, right where this category's dearest tenth starts. Replying from Appbot, auto replies, exports and MCP need Large, from $166 a month for 7+ users.
- CFree plan and trialNo free plan. There's a 14-day trial of the Large plan with no card needed, and after that the cheapest way in is $49 a month.
- CFeaturesReviews from every country in three stores, sentiment, topics and emotions, translation from 30+ languages and rival comparisons. It does review analysis fully, but that's a smaller job: there's no keyword research or rank tracking.
- CEase of useNo rating on record. Each app in each store is a source to add, and custom topics are built from keyword rules, so there's setup before the dashboards say much.
- BPlatforms and integrationsWeb only, with no desktop or phone app. It links to Slack, Teams, Zendesk, Freshdesk, Jira, Salesforce, Zapier and Tableau, and the API is a paid add-on on Large and Premium only.

Keep Appbot, or make your own?
Keep it
To replace Appbot you would be making keyword rankings and popularity scores from both app stores, gathered every day. That is not a weekend's work, with an AI app builder or without one.
That makes this kind of software worth paying for, not this one in particular: 25 of the 42 other app store optimization tools grade higher. It costs $588 a year.
What you could make
- Reports: an app builder makes this well.
What you could not
- Keyword rankings and popularity scores from both app stores, gathered every day.
- Connections that pull numbers from dozens of other services.
- It plugs into other products, Slack, Microsoft Teams and Zendesk among them, and has an API.
- AI features, unless you pay a model provider for each request yourself.
What this rests on. Appbot’s listing: what it does, where it runs, what it plugs into and what it costs. It is a judgement about the kind of software this is. We have not built a replacement for it, and making your own means looking after it too. How we decide, and every tool’s verdict.
