# AppSigma review (2026): is the free plan enough?

> App Store keyword tracking and review analysis with an MCP server

Checked Oct 23, 2026 · graded Oct 23, 2026 by ToolGPA.

AppSigma tracks App Store keyword positions every day, compares an app with the apps ranking beside it, and labels reviews with AI by sentiment and topic. The same data is offered as a REST API and as an MCP server, so assistants such as Claude, ChatGPT or Cursor can read rankings and add keywords. Paid plans share every feature and differ by apps and team size.

- Only monthly prices are shown; no annual discount is listed.
- Paid plans list unlimited tracked keywords, but daily positions are described as covering up to 500 keywords per app.

## ToolGPA grades

**GPA: 2.2 out of 4**, graded Oct 23, 2026. AppSigma tracks App Store keyword positions daily, finds keyword gaps against the apps ranking beside yours and labels reviews by topic with AI, and its MCP server lets Claude, ChatGPT or Cursor read the data. Starter is $19.99 a month for 10 apps. It covers Apple's App Store only, though, there's no annual discount, and the free plan stops at 5 keywords.

- **Value for money: C.** Starter is $19.99 a month for 10 apps and 3 team members, about this category's $19 middle, and only monthly prices are listed. Pro is $49.99 for unlimited apps and 10 people.
- **Free plan and trial: C.** A free plan with no card: 1 app and 5 keywords in one market with daily positions, the newest 500 reviews analyzed and 1,000 API credits. Five keywords is a cap you'll hit straight away.
- **Features: C.** Daily ranks with popularity and difficulty, competitor keyword gaps, visibility scores, AI review labels, 180 days of chart history and alerts. The gap is in its own listing: App Store only, with Google Play not mentioned.
- **Ease of use: C.** No rating on record. You add apps, keywords and markets in a web dashboard, or connect the MCP server to your assistant, before it tells you much.
- **Platforms and integrations: B.** Web only, with no desktop or phone app. A REST API and an MCP server on every plan reach Claude, ChatGPT and Cursor, and it links to App Store Connect and Figma.

## Keep it, or make your own?

**Keep it.** To replace AppSigma 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. It costs $239.88 a year.

- You could not: Keyword rankings and popularity scores from both app stores, gathered every day.
- You could not: Search volumes for millions of keywords, gathered and kept up to date.
- You could not: Daily checks of where your pages rank in search results.
- You could not: It plugs into other products, Claude, ChatGPT and Cursor among them, and has an API.
- You could not: AI features, unless you pay a model provider for each request yourself.
