About ASO Studio

What is ASO Studio?

ASO Studio is native App Store research for Mac. It helps an iOS developer find keywords, track rank, read demand and revenue estimates, and work on a listing. The full workspace is $59 a year, and a free app rating checker needs no sign-up.

What ASO Studio does

Idea Lab weighs an idea against real searches and real revenue. A keyword table shows live position, seven-day momentum, demand, difficulty, and what a term is worth in downloads and revenue. Category views weigh size, revenue, and difficulty, with estimates modeled from public signals across the top 100 grossing apps in each category. The Mac app can also read a sales report, write a listing in any language, and run Apple Search Ads after a preview of every amount. ASO Studio Connect on iPhone and iPad follows a version from submitted to live. A weekly inbox report is not in the app today.

Who ASO Studio is for

iOS developers on macOS 15 or later who research their own apps. Joe, at joearizzo, makes ASO Studio and ships his own apps. One person writes it. There is no sales team, no account managers, and no support tiers.

How ASO Studio works

Download the Mac app. A license is required to run it, and the subscription follows the Apple account, on as many Macs as you like, plus ASO Studio Connect. Public App Store data works with no Apple password. Two optional connections use Apple's own credentials: Apple Search Ads through OAuth, and an App Store Connect API key. Both stay in the Mac Keychain, and a metadata write shows the field-by-field diff first. Estimates are corrected by real installs that users share anonymously, and a checked number carries a seal. An agent that speaks MCP can connect at one address. The page names Claude, ChatGPT, Claude Code, Codex, and Cursor.

Key features

  • Unlimited apps and keywords, with live rank tracking, keyword history, and demand, difficulty, and opportunity scoring.
  • Review mining, tags, notes, and CSV export. Category estimates cover the top 100 grossing apps, and a market view prices about 50 apps.
  • Apple Search Ads is included: campaigns, ad groups, keywords, negative keywords, bids, and daily budgets, with every change previewed before it is sent.
  • ASO Studio Connect is on iPhone and iPad with the subscription. It sends a push when a version moves, and shows downloads and proceeds in the morning.
  • The free App Rating checker scores an App Store app out of 100, with no sign-up. The Mac app itself is not available to try yet.
  • A Friday email report is on the way, included at no extra cost, and it is not in the app today. Google Play is coming soon. The stores today are Apple's App Store, in every storefront Apple operates.
