## Which setup fits you?

It depends on four things: how many apps you manage, how many reviews you get, what data you need, and who relies on it.

← Back

1 of 5

Your starting point

### Do you already have your own review tool?

ANot yet — we're thinking about building one with AI

BYes — we've built our own bot or script

CWe use AppFollow and are thinking about replacing it with our own

5 quick questions · about a minute · no email needed

Scope

### How many apps do you manage, and where do reviews come from?

A1 app on App Store and/or Google Play

B2–5 apps on App Store and Google Play

C6+ apps, or reviews from other places too (Steam, Trustpilot, other stores)

Volume

### How many reviews do you get per month, across all apps?

AUnder 100 — one person can read them all

B100–1,000

CMore than 1,000

Data

### Besides replying to new reviews, what else do you need?

ANothing else — just new reviews and replies

BPast reviews and ratings, to see trends after releases

CCompetitor data and ASO: rankings, keywords, competitors' reviews

DBoth: history and competitor/ASO data

Team

### Who on your team works with app reviews?

AJust me

BOne team, for example support

CSeveral teams: support, product, marketing, leadership

**A** AppFollow free plan

### Start free — no bot to build or maintain.

For one app and under 100 reviews a month, you don't need to build anything. Start on AppFollow's free plan: your reviews and replies in one place, nothing to maintain — and when you need history, competitor data or more apps, it's already there.

Keep your bot if it works for you — and use AppFollow for what it can't fetch: history and competitor data.

**B** Your agent + AppFollow data

### Keep your own tooling. Run it on AppFollow data.

Your setup needs more than a bot can fetch. Connect your agent to AppFollow via MCP or API and get the data the store APIs don't give you — without maintaining the pipeline.

Google Play's API returns only the last week of reviews, so history has to come from somewhere else. AppFollow has years of it from day one.

Competitor reviews, keyword rankings and featuring aren't in the store APIs. AppFollow has them ready.

Your bot stays — just plug it into AppFollow.

**C** AppFollow

### AppFollow is the more efficient option for your setup.

Several apps and sources, real volume, several teams relying on the data: running that in-house means engineering time every month. Show us your setup and we'll compare it with AppFollow in 20 minutes — and tell you honestly where yours is better.

Bring your bot to the call — we'll show what you can keep and what to plug in.

**D** For AppFollow customers

### Before you replace AppFollow, check what you'd have to rebuild.

Review history, competitor and ASO data, every source in one inbox, consistent tagging and team workflows would all need to be built and maintained in-house. If you want your own AI on top, you don't have to switch — connect it to AppFollow via MCP.

Retake the quiz

## What a vibe-coded bot can't get from the store APIs

1 week  
Google Play's API returns only reviews from the last week. History can't be backfilled.

AppFollow: years of review, rating and ranking history from day one

Own apps only  
Neither store's API gives competitors' reviews, rankings or keyword data.

AppFollow: competitor reviews, keyword popularity & difficulty, featuring

No star-only ratings  
Google Play's API skips reviews without a written comment.

AppFollow: every review and rating, plus Trustpilot, Steam, Discord and other stores in one inbox

## What it takes to own a review bot after month one

| What you need | To build and run it yourself | In AppFollow |
| --- | --- | --- |
| **DATA** |  |  |
| **Review history** | Google Play's API gives one week. For more, buy third-party data or scrape — paid per app, every month | Years of review, rating and ranking history from day one |
| **Competitors & ASO** | Not in the store APIs. Third-party data for every competitor and keyword you track | Competitor reviews and ratings, keyword popularity & difficulty, rankings, featuring, top charts |
| **Other sources** | A separate integration for each store, Trustpilot, Steam and Discord | One inbox: App Store, Google Play, Microsoft Store, AppGallery, Galaxy Store, Trustpilot, Steam, Discord |
| **INSIGHTS** |  |  |
| **Tagging** | Prompts that drift with model updates; re-tag history every time categories change | Consistent AI tags across apps, markets and languages, plus your own custom tags |
| **Summaries** | The LLM only sees what fits in its context window, so "top issues" depend on which reviews it read | AI summaries by period, app version or tag, each theme linked to the reviews behind it |
| **Spikes** | Build and maintain your own monitoring | Alerts when negative reviews spike after a release |
| **WORKFLOWS** |  |  |
| **Replies** | Your own draft-approve-post logic. The App Store keeps one reply per review — posting again overwrites it | Auto-replies with approval rules, drafted in the review's language |
| **Translation** | Extra LLM calls for every review and every reply | Automatic translation of reviews and replies |
| **Abusive reviews** | Reporting isn't in the stores' public APIs | Report a Concern for App Store, Google Play, Trustpilot and Steam, automatable with rules |
| **Helpdesk** | One integration at a time | Zendesk, Salesforce, Freshdesk, Intercom, Helpshift, Front, Help Scout, Slack, Microsoft Teams |
| **OWNERSHIP** |  |  |
| **Maintenance** | Your team, every time an API, auth method or quota changes (Google Play: 200 review requests per hour per app) | Our team |
| **Security & uptime** | Your own audit and on-call rotation | ISO 27001, SSO, DPA, dedicated servers, 99.5% uptime guarantee |

## Your AI agent, AppFollow’s data — connected in under a minute

 

Keep your own agent and give it AppFollow data: years of history, competitor and ASO data, consistent tags.

## Build vs buy AI for app reviews: FAQ

### When does it make sense to build an app review tool yourself?

Build it yourself if you have one app in one or two stores, a review volume one person can read, and you only need new reviews — no history or competitor data. Connect your own agent to AppFollow via MCP or API once you need history, ASO or competitor data but want to keep your own tooling. Use AppFollow when you manage many apps, stores or languages and several teams rely on the data.

### Can I build an app review tool with AI myself?

Yes. With Claude, Cursor or Codex you can pull your own App Store and Google Play reviews and draft replies in an afternoon. The harder parts are review history, competitor data and maintaining the workflow over time.

### Is it cheaper to build with AI or buy a review management tool?

The build is cheap; owning it isn't. Compare two to three years of engineering time, AI usage, third-party data for history and competitors, and maintenance — not just the LLM bill.

### What data can't I get from the App Store and Google Play APIs?

Competitors' reviews, keyword popularity and difficulty, rankings and featuring data. Google Play's API also returns only reviews from the last week, and only those with a written comment.

### Our AI replies are already better. Why switch?

Tell us what's better — tone, context or accuracy. You can keep your own reply logic and connect it to AppFollow data via MCP or API.

### Do I have to replace the bot I built?

No. Connect it to AppFollow via MCP or API so it works on full history, competitor data and consistent tags, without anyone maintaining the pipeline.

### Is my data secure with AppFollow?

AppFollow is ISO 27001 compliant, supports SSO and access controls, offers a DPA and dedicated servers, and provides documentation for security audits.
