Part 01 · Overview
Welcome
What it is, who it suits, its grades and the ten things to know first
2.2
GPA, above 18 of the 42 other app store optimization tools we grade
GrowASO is a web-based app store optimization tool for indie developers and small teams on the App Store and Google Play. An AI copilot drafts a title, subtitle, description and keyword field from competitor and keyword research, and the paid plans add unlimited keyword rank tracking, listing audits, app revenue estimates and an AI app icon generator.
To get you started, here are 9 things to know about GrowASO, taken from its own pages and our grades.
It's a web app where you add apps and keywords before tracking tells you anything.

Over 60,000 keywords with traffic and difficulty estimates that can be filtered by range, with the top apps and their revenue estimates per keyword.

The report card
Best for AI-drafted store listings for indie developers
GrowASO has an AI copilot that drafts your title, subtitle, description and keyword field, plus rank tracking, audits and revenue estimates for both stores. Premium is $12 a month on yearly billing ($149 a year), or $19 monthly. The copilot writes only 2 listings a month on Premium, and there are no integrations at all.
| Subject | Grade | Comment |
|---|---|---|
| Value for money | B | Premium is $12 a month billed yearly, $149 a year, inside this category's cheaper quarter, with unlimited tracking and research on unlimited apps. Monthly it's $19, the category's middle. |
| Free plan and trial | C | No free plan. The trial needs no card but covers just 1 listing audit, 1 app profile and 10 keywords each for tracking and research, and the keyword database needs a paid plan. |
| Features | C | Listing drafts, rank tracking on both stores, a 60,000-keyword database, app revenue estimates, audits and AI icons. The basics are there, but the copilot writes 2 listings a month on Premium and 5 on Professional. |
| Ease of use | C | No rating on record. It's a web app where you add apps and keywords before tracking tells you anything. |
| Platforms and integrations | C | Web only, with no desktop or phone app, and no integrations or API on the listing. |
An A is worth 4 points, a B 3, a C 2, a D 1 and an F nothing. The GPA is the average of the five.
Who GrowASO is for
- Fits if you're an indie developer who wants ASO tools for under $20 a month
- Works for consultants handling many client apps, since paid plans cover unlimited apps
Who it is not for
- Tight if you rewrite listings often, as the copilot does 2 a month on Premium and 5 on Professional
- Watch out: the free trial is 1 audit, 1 app profile and 10 keywords, and leaves out the keyword database
- Skip it if you want it wired into other tools, as there are no integrations or API on record
- Watch out: refunds are pro-rated within 7 days of purchase, less AI usage and payment fees
- Pricey if you want the work done for you, as done-for-you ASO is a separate service from $99 a month
Good to know
Good for

- Refunds are pro-rated within 7 days of purchase, less AI usage and payment processor fees.
- Done-for-you ASO work is a separate service from $99 a month, scoped and priced per project.

Keep it, or make your own?
Whether this is something you could build for yourself with an AI app builder, and what you would give up.
Keep it
To replace GrowASO 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 $144 a year.
What you could not
- Keyword rankings and popularity scores from both app stores, gathered every day.
- Search volumes for millions of keywords, gathered and kept up to date.
- An image model, which you can rent by the picture but not make.
- Daily checks of where your pages rank in search results.
- AI features, unless you pay a model provider for each request yourself.
What this rests on. GrowASO’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.
