## ToolGPA grades

**GPA: 2.2 out of 4**, graded Oct 23, 2026. GetAppNiche estimates revenue and downloads for 3.6M+ apps on both stores, filters niches by earnings and competition, and adds keyword research, daily tracking of 500 keywords and a browser extension. Pro is $20.75 a month billed yearly. Its figures are its own model's estimates, though, there's no free trial, and its Google Play charts are the US only.

- **Value for money: C.** Pro is $249 a year, $20.75 a month ($39 monthly), just over this category's $19 middle, for every feature. A $299 lifetime price is a founding offer limited to the first 100 seats.
- **Free plan and trial: C.** Free with an email sign-in: chart position and rating in the extension, review growth on 2 apps, 1 followed app and the free web tools. The estimates and tracking need Pro, and there's no trial.
- **Features: C.** Revenue and download estimates, a niche explorer with 30+ filters, keyword research, tracking of 500 keywords on both stores, a localization gap finder, review monitoring and an ads library. Its own listing names a gap: Google Play charts are the US only.
- **Ease of use: C.** No rating on record. The extension shows data on the store pages you open, but the web app is a large filterable database with a lot to learn.
- **Platforms and integrations: B.** Web, plus an extension for Chrome, Edge and Firefox. The API and an MCP server for Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor and VS Code come with Pro. No desktop or phone app.

## Keep it, or make your own?

**Keep it.** To replace GetAppNiche 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 $249 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.
