A SASI alternative for your App Store rank and keywords
The Shopify App Store Index followed the position, rating and review count of your apps. It belongs to Mantle, which shut down in 2026. Here is how Luseri covers the same ground.

Is SASI still working?
Mantle's wind-down FAQ, updated on July 2, 2026, says SASI and App Store Analytics are winding down along with the rest of Mantle. On October 20, 2026, the SASI site was still online and listing apps added the same day, with no closing notice. No end date has been published, and nobody has announced taking it over, so plan for it to stop without warning.
What you get
| You want to follow | How Luseri does it |
|---|---|
| Your keywords | Up to 20 keywords you choose: your position in the App Store search results, read every day, and the position of the apps you watch. The first 192 results are scanned, as a signed-out visitor sees them, in the App Store language you pick for each keyword: English or one of 20 others. Ads do not count. |
| Your rank in your category | Read every day from the full category list, as Shopify shows it to a visitor who is not signed in. The first 192 apps are scanned; beyond that the rank is reported as further down. |
| Your rating and reviews | The reviews of your listing, the split by number of stars, and the rating and review count over the past year, rebuilt from the review dates. |
| Your competitors | Up to six listings: rating, reviews, entry price, category rank, and reviews gained in 30 days once a month of readings exists. |
| Listing changes | What changed in the name, the plans and the categories of your listing and of the ones you watch, day by day. |
| The searches behind your visits | The searches that brought merchants to your listing, your position when they clicked, by country and language, with install clicks and confirmed installs. Read from your own Google Analytics. |
Two ways to look at search
Keyword tracking answers one question: where do I rank on this word today, and where do my competitors rank? It covers the words you pick, including the ones that bring you nobody yet.
The searches read from your Google Analytics answer another one: what merchants actually typed before opening your listing, and how many of them installed. A keyword nobody clicked through does not appear there, which is exactly why the two views complement each other.
Where the history starts
Category rank and listing changes start the day you add your listing, and keyword positions the day you add a keyword. Review history is rebuilt from the dates of the reviews themselves, so it goes back further. Search terms from Google Analytics go back up to a year if it was already connected to your listing.
Questions
- Do I need a Shopify Partner login for the App Store part?
- No. Reviews, category rank, competitors and listing changes come from public listing pages: you paste the address of your listing. Revenue and installs do need your Partner account.
- How often is the App Store read?
- Once a day per page, by a robot that identifies itself. Public data is shared: a listing or a keyword followed by ten accounts is read once.
- Are ads counted in my rank?
- No. Your category rank and your keyword positions are your place in the organic results, ads left out.
