Why official data matters
An estimate built from how many apps match a word can't see how often people type it. Apple's lists show it directly. Your app's name is the one thing you can't afford to guess.

- Free names no app has claimed yet, each with a measured chance and a plain call: go, maybe or skip.
- Your AI does the work. Claude Code, Cursor or Codex finds the searches and writes the listing.
- Upload in one yes. Your listing goes to App Store Connect without copy and paste.
- Daily rank checks for every keyword in every country, on your Mac.
