ASOGrade: Buy vs Skip (App Store Keyword Research)

If your agency serves iOS app clients and needs to batch-test up to 100 keywords across 109 storefronts, ASOGrade's $14.99 monthly plan is a low-cost research layer. However, if you require automated metadata updates or ongoing rank monitoring, skip it because ASOGrade only provides research, not execution.

Buy / Proceed When
  • Your agency handles ASO for multiple iOS clients and needs to quickly compare keyword difficulty across different storefronts.
  • You want to offer a productized ASO audit service, like the $1,800 starter package, and need a tool to generate keyword lists and competitor teardowns.
  • You are a solo consultant or small agency where the $14.99 monthly fee is negligible compared to the value of data-driven keyword recommendations.
  • Your clients are launching new apps and need a prioritized keyword strategy based on Apple Search Ads demand data.
Skip / Avoid When
  • Your agency primarily works on Android or web SEO, as ASOGrade is iOS-only.
  • You need a tool that can push keyword changes directly to App Store Connect or automate metadata updates.
  • Your clients expect ongoing rank tracking and monitoring, which ASOGrade does not provide.
  • You require white-label reporting or client-facing dashboards, which are not mentioned in ASOGrade's feature set.
  • Your budget is tight and you need a free tier; ASOGrade only offers paid plans starting at $14.99/month.
