Do I need my own Apple credentials?

No for keyword and competitor research. Connect Apple only when you want RankPal to sync your own metadata, screenshots, subscriptions, prices, ads, or performance reports. Your credentials stay on your Mac.

How does payment work?

Start the 3-day full-access trial through Dodo. Billing begins after the trial unless you cancel. Your subscription entitlement keeps RankPal active on your Mac.

How is keyword difficulty calculated?

Difficulty combines public App Store signals about the strength of the currently-ranking apps. Treat it as a directional ranking-feasibility score, not a guarantee.

What does RankPal help me decide?

Which keyword to target, which country to test, which competitor change matters, whether your metadata covers the target, and whether your rank is moving after each update.

How often do keywords refresh?

RankPal includes manual refresh, keyword history, and live sync. One plan, full access, no feature gates to decode.

Yes. RankPal is a native macOS app requiring macOS 13.0 (Ventura) or later. Runs natively on Apple Silicon (M1/M2/M3/M4) and Intel.

the weekly signal

See the rank move. Know what to do next.

RankPal keeps keyword movement close to the metadata and creative decisions that explain it. The chart is a signal, not a vanity score.

the agent loop

Four clean moves from signal to shipped update.

RankPal gives agents focused primitives with a human approval point between insight and change.

Read

Keywords, competitors, rank movement, and market context.

Decide

Turn evidence into one clear next action, not another dashboard.

Design

Connect the decision to metadata, pricing, or Screenshot Studio.

Ship

Review the change, approve it, and keep the history for the next loop.

the focused alternative

One App Store loop. Less tool switching.

RankPal is built for founders who want agent speed with human control. The comparison is about workflow fit, not inflated feature-count claims. Competitor capabilities vary by plan and region.
