BoostYourApp vs data.ai
data.ai gives you market data. BoostYourApp gives you your next move.
Why builders switch from data.ai
data.ai (formerly App Annie) pioneered app market intelligence and has the largest historical dataset in the industry. But over the years, it became an enterprise analytics platform - packed with market sizing, ad spend data, and features most app developers never touch. BoostYourApp takes the opposite approach: instead of burying you in dashboards, we tell you exactly what to change in your app's metadata to rank higher. An ASO Decision Engine built for builders, not analysts. Clean interface, specific recommendations, real App Store data.
data.ai pricing is enterprise-only (typically $20K+/year, custom quotes). BoostYourApp Starter is $19/mo. Pro is $49/mo with full AI recommendations.

Frequently asked questions
Is data.ai still independent?
data.ai was acquired by Sensor Tower, creating uncertainty about its future direction and pricing. BoostYourApp is independent and focused on one thing: helping app builders make better ASO decisions. No enterprise pivots, no acquisition risk.
Does BoostYourApp have market intelligence?
We provide app-level intelligence - competitor metadata, pricing, IAP data, and real rankings across 150+ countries. We don't do macro market sizing or ad spend estimates. That's a deliberate choice: we focus on decisions you can act on today, not market reports for boardroom decks.
Why switch from data.ai to BoostYourApp?
If you're using data.ai for ASO, you're paying enterprise prices for a tool where ASO is a secondary feature. BoostYourApp is purpose-built for ASO decisions: AI-powered metadata recommendations, keyword intelligence, and competitor alerts. You'll get more actionable ASO output at $19/mo than data.ai provides at $20K+/year.
