#What Fledly is
Fledly is an App Store research and ASO (App Store optimization) tool for indie iOS developers. It shows young iPhone apps that already earn on the Top Grossing charts, scores app ideas on that public evidence, and tracks your own App Store keyword ranks and competitors.
It covers the Apple App Store (iPhone and iPad) only.
#Who runs it
Fledly is made and run by Mika Heinonen, an independent iOS developer.
Contact: hello@fledly.app.
#Where you can use it
- Web app at https://fledly.app/ (sign in with an email link, Google or Apple).
- Remote MCP server at https://fledly.app/mcp for AI assistants: Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, Codex and other MCP clients. It works on every plan, including Free, and you sign in with your Fledly account (OAuth). Setup: https://fledly.app/docs/mcp/
- There is no separate REST API and no API keys. Programmatic access is the MCP server.
- There is no native app (no iPhone, Mac or Android app). Fledly runs in the browser and inside AI assistants.
- Fledly covers the iOS App Store only. It has no Google Play or Android data.

#What is measured and what is estimated
- Measured (read from Apple every day): Top Grossing and Top Free chart positions, app details (name, developer, price, release date, ratings, in-app purchase prices), your apps' search ranks for tracked keywords, and Apple Ads search popularity (Apple's own 1–100 score, where Apple publishes one).
- Estimated (Fledly's models, not panel data or App Store Connect sales): monthly revenue ranges from Top Grossing rank (a US model; other stores scale it by each store's share of App Store spending), popularity for searches below Apple's published cut-off (from App Store autocomplete), keyword difficulty, and the 0–100 idea scores.
- Rank history starts in October 2026.
#MCP server
- URL: https://fledly.app/mcp (streamable HTTP, OAuth sign-in with a Fledly account).
- 18 tools: young earners, app ideas, Top charts, app lookup, App Store search, keyword suggestions, your tracked apps and keywords, competitor reports, metadata checks and keyword fields.
- Works on every plan; the Free plan's data limits apply there too.
