What's distinctive.

1

Two analyses, paired.

Most keyword tools do one or the other. This engine models the messy natural-language queries users type when they first feel the need your app solves, then maps the underlying intents behind those queries, so search behavior and motivation are read together.

2

Functional, emotional, social.

Every extracted intent is classified across three dimensions: the functional job, the emotional payoff, and the social context. That classification surfaces high-relevance intents your listing misses, including ones your competitors articulate and you do not.

3

Three sources, one matrix.

Intents are pulled from your listing, your reviews, and your competitors' listings, then deduplicated into canonical intents and shown side by side, so you can see exactly which intents you own and which you concede.

The methodology.

"Users do not search for features. They search for the need they feel."
  1. 1

    Predict the search terms

    The engine models the actual natural-language queries users would type to find an app like yours. It covers both action framings and problem framings, and it is platform-aware, so the predicted battery reflects how people search on the App Store and Google Play rather than a generic keyword list.

  2. 2

    Extract intents from three sources

    Intents are pulled from three places, then deduplicated into canonical intents and classified across three dimensions:

    • Your live listing text.
    • Your review pool, surfaced via the User Sentiment engine.
    • Your top competitors' listings.
    • Each canonical intent is classified as functional, emotional, or social.
  3. 3

    Score coverage on four axes

    Coverage of the predicted queries and extracted intents is scored across four axes: breadth, depth, gap impact, and competitive differentiation. Source-quality weighting governs how much each source contributes.

  4. 4

    Ranked, explainable actions

    Findings convert to recommendation rows, each one naming the intent it addresses, the sources that surfaced it, and the projected coverage-score delta if you adopt it.

Data sources

Live listing text; review pool (via User Sentiment); top competitor listings; Apple Search Ads and Google Play search context where available; versioned intent taxonomy.

AI's role

AI generates the predicted-query battery, classifies and deduplicates the intents, and scores articulation strength against the listing. The taxonomy of functional, emotional, and social intents, the four-axis coverage model, and the source-quality weighting are human-authored and kept current.

A real recommendation, end to end.

This is the shape of a recommendation row in the Weekly Revision Plan. The reasoning, the sources, and the projected impact are part of the row — not buried in a tooltip.

Example

What you get.

  • Predicted-query battery, scored against your listing coverage.
  • Intent matrix, with listing, review, and competitor sources side by side and a functional, emotional, or social label per intent.
  • Recommendation rows, each proposing an intent hook for your subtitle or description with an expected score delta.

How you act on it.

  • Approve, edit, or decline each recommendation in the Weekly Revision Plan.
  • Many recommendations pair with Store Text or Screenshot edits, and the engine flags the dependency.
  • Schedule a re-audit to confirm the change moved your Intent Coverage Score.

Analysis is on every plan; draft generation and Publishing are on Pro, Elite, and Enterprise.
