What you get

ASO research that respects your time and budget

Everything an iOS team needs to find keywords, track movement, and act before competitors do.

Honest keyword scoring

Popularity, Difficulty, and Keymelo Score with a published methodology. Compare keywords against each other and find the sweet spot before you commit to a metadata change.

Daily rank tracking

Track any keyword in any country. Keymelo snapshots ranks every day, surfaces movement with sparklines, and emails your team when something shifts.

Competitor benchmarks

See which apps rank for the keywords you care about, how their ratings stack up, and where the market is concentrated before you pick a fight.

Screenshot ASO check

Apple indexes screenshot caption text. Keymelo reads your screenshots with AI vision and suggests keyword-rich rewrites so visual assets pull search weight too.

Rank alerts

Email digests and in-app alerts when a tracked keyword crosses a threshold, so you react to competitor moves and algorithm shifts the same day.

365-day history

Scroll back through a full year of rank data to connect metadata updates, release notes, and seasonal trends to the movement you actually saw in the store.

Rank tracking

Know the moment a keyword moves

Stop refreshing App Store search manually. Keymelo watches your keyword list around the clock and shows exactly which terms climbed, slipped, or held steady since yesterday.

  • Daily snapshots for every tracked keyword and country.
  • Sparkline history so trends are obvious at a glance.
  • Alert thresholds when a rank crosses a line you set.
Scoring methodology

Three scores, one clear recommendation

Keymelo scores are calculated from public App Store data: iTunes Search results, Apple autocomplete, rating counts, and market concentration. They are relative estimates for comparing keywords, not absolute search volume.

Popularity (0–100)

How much search demand a keyword has, based on autocomplete position and app market presence in the category.

Difficulty (0–100)

How hard it is to rank, based on competitor ratings, review counts, market concentration, and incumbent app quality.

Keymelo Score (0–100)

The sweet spot: balances popularity against difficulty so you target keywords with real upside, not vanity terms or impossible fights.
