App Store Competitor Benchmark | Appalize

Compare 2–10 iOS apps by ratings, prices, update dates, metadata and screenshots across country storefronts. Transparent cohort metrics, no API key.

Quick start

{
  "apps": [
    "324684580",
    "284035177"
  ],
  "countries": [
    "us"
  ],
  "maxItems": 10
}

What it compares

Supply 2–10 distinct apps. For each country, receive one report with a nested apps table and cohort summary:

• Current ratings and rating counts; tied counts receive equal cohort ranks.
• Share of the cohort's known ratings and difference from its mean rating.
• Price, currency, release/update dates and current version.
• Title/description lengths and screenshot counts.

The entire cohort must be fetched successfully before a report is emitted. Country-level failures are recorded in RUN-SUMMARY. A numeric ID and bundle ID resolving to the same app are deduplicated.

Interpretation

These are comparisons within your supplied cohort, not App Store chart ranks or market share. Ratings are not downloads. No revenue, download, keyword-volume or causal growth estimates are generated. Prices are compared inside a storefront; inspect currency before aggregating across countries. Missing values remain null.

Output, automation and cost control

Results are stored in the default dataset; use JSON to preserve nested arrays, or export CSV/Excel through Apify. RUN-SUMMARY contains counts and source failures. Each row has source and collection time. maxItems caps reports/snapshots, not nested reviews or cohort members. Checkpoints deduplicate resumed work; downstream consumers should also use recordId within a run because dataset/checkpoint writes are not atomic.

Use the Apify API, schedules, Make, n8n or MCP integration. No Appalize key, App Store Connect credentials or external LLM key is needed. Only Apple App Store is supported.

Pricing: $10 per 1,000 successful country cohort reports, plus $0.00005 per Actor start (one event per GB, minimum one). Platform usage is included. Each result includes all nested data; failed units have no result charge. Use the live Pricing tab and maximum charge setting before running.
