storelift-mcp
App Store & Google Play ranking data as an MCP server. Ask your assistant which keywords you dropped on, who outranks you, and whether AI assistants mention your app at all — without opening a dashboard.
Backed by Storelift, which measures keyword ranks, rivals and AI visibility nightly. No store credentials required — ranks are read from the public storefront.
Requirements
- A Studio plan (the Public API is enabled on that plan)
- An API key: Storelift → Settings → API keys → Generate key

Tools
| Tool | Returns |
|---|---|
list_apps | tracked apps (id, name, countries, keywords) |
get_keywords | keyword ranks for one app in one country |
get_rivals | apps ranking above you, with their rank and yours |
get_ai_visibility | whether assistants name your app, per engine (Claude / ChatGPT / Gemini) |
get_history | rank history, [day, rank] points |
Reading the data
Keyword results carry three distinct states, and they are not the same thing:
measured: false— the query could not be measuredrank: null(withmeasured: true) — measured, but absent from the top resultsrank: <number>— the rank
Counting an unmeasured day as zero produces a false chart. The tool descriptions repeat this so the model does not flatten the three into one.
AI visibility is an observation, not a ranking: a model's knowledge is frozen at a date and the answer is not identical every time. Read the trend, not a single measurement.
Configuration
