BUILT FOR YOUR EVERYDAY RESEARCH
App Store ✳ Mac App Store ✳ Google Play
LESS GUESSING. MORE DIRECTION.
From “where are we?”
to “what’s next?”
Keep the whole research loop in one place.
Search. Track.
Compare. Make a change.
Come back with a little more context.
Follow your curiosity.
Start with a few seed terms and explicit markets. Check the suggestions against actual store results, then review relevant keywords in an experiment queue with reasons and next steps.
Give every change context.
See saved metadata changes and compare 7, 14 or 28 days before and after. Source and result depth stay separate. Too little history stays clearly marked so you can wait for enough evidence.
MADE TO FIT YOUR WORK
Small app.
Small app.
Useful connections.
Your research should be easy to move, easy to inspect and easy to keep.
Your AI, your workspace.
16 local MCP tools connect compatible AI clients to your research. Read-only by default, with explicit access for changes.
Bring your keywords along.
Bring an AScope CSV into an app-by-app preview. Map columns, preserve countries and notes, skip duplicates and undo the transfer. Export your visible keywords when you need.
Local by design.
No account needed to store your research. History stays on your Mac. Store searches go directly to Apple and Google.
Clear about the data.
iPhone rankings use native Apple search; observed depth varies, up to 250 in our pilot. Mac rankings use the first public Mac web search page. Google Play reads the primary app list and continuation pages when exposed, up to 250 unique apps; related modules are excluded. Results can vary by device and personalization. Popularity needs authorized Apple Ads data and is not included in this release. We don’t manufacture search volume, downloads or revenue.

A FEW GOOD QUESTIONS
Before your
first search.
Does it track while my Mac is asleep?
Checks run while Ranklane is running and the Mac is awake. Closing the main window quits the app; leave it open or minimize it for automatic checks. Due keywords are checked when you return. We never fill missed days with invented rankings.
Do I need an Apple developer account?
No store account is needed for public app research and ranking checks. Apple Ads popularity requires separate authorized access and is not included in this release.
What happens to my data if I cancel?
You can keep reading and exporting your local history. New store research and tracking require an active license. Deleting your app data is your choice.
Can I use it offline or move to a new Mac?
A validated license allows up to three days offline, within its expiry. Deactivate your old Mac in Settings before activating the new one. Transfer your local research separately.
Does it run on Windows?
The current client is for macOS 14 and later. A Windows client is planned after Mac acceptance; no Windows download is available yet.
Can I migrate from AScope?
Import an AScope CSV with a preview for each app, country and note. Existing keywords are kept, invalid rows are explained and the last transfer can be undone. Imported historical rankings are not treated as new store measurements.
How are payments and refunds handled?
Checkout and purchase emails are handled by Polar. Monthly renewals can be canceled in its customer portal. For billing issues, use the help link on your purchase receipt. This does not limit your statutory consumer rights.
Where can I download it?
The public release is being prepared. Checkout stays unavailable until billing and the signed download are connected.
