ASO Lucid
ASO Lucid analyzes App Store listings to help users research keywords, identify competitor gaps, and prepare metadata recommendations and reports.
What ASO Lucid is
ASO Lucid analyzes App Store listings to help users research keywords, identify competitor gaps, and prepare metadata recommendations and reports. Its keyword opportunity engine generates and scores terms using App Store metadata, competitor usage, and opportunity formulas. It can discover similar apps and show high-value keywords competitors use in titles and subtitles. A metadata builder drafts titles, subtitles, keyword fields, promotional text, descriptions, and What's New copy within Apple's character limits.
Users can export keyword tables and metadata recommendations as CSV or copy fields for App Store Connect; PDF reports are listed as coming soon. The early-access MVP accepts an app ID or App Store URL and a selected country storefront, while broader localization workflows are planned for a later phase. Traffic and difficulty scores are directional estimates for prioritizing opportunities, not guaranteed search volume or ranking predictions. Search Ads CSV import is also listed as a future feature. Full access is currently free during early access, with unlimited audits. Pro is listed as coming soon at $29 a month, billed $29/month; Agency is listed as coming soon at $99 a month, billed $99/month.
