AppJubilee vs App Store Analytics: The Standalone Alternative
App Store Analytics was a respected standalone product. Since its acquisition by Mantle, accessing its features requires a full platform subscription. Here is how AppJubilee compares.
TL;DR
App Store Analytics (ASA) was originally built by Daniel Sim / Union Works as a standalone Shopify App Store analytics product — best known for its historical listing change archive. It was acquired by Mantle (Heymantle) and is now integrated into the Mantle platform, no longer available as a standalone product. AppJubilee is the dedicated alternative: a standalone ASO intelligence platform with ongoing listing change detection, automatic keyword discovery, competitor universe mapping, and listing change impact analysis.

Where AppJubilee goes deeper
Specific capabilities that go beyond what this competitor offers.
1Standalone product — no platform subscription required
App Store Analytics is no longer available as a standalone product. To access its features, you need a Mantle subscription that covers billing, analytics, email marketing, affiliates, CRM, and more. AppJubilee is a dedicated ASO tool — you pay for ASO intelligence, not a full business platform.
2Listing change impact analysis
Both platforms detect listing changes. AppJubilee goes further by correlating those changes with ranking movement across every affected keyword — showing you not just what changed, but what impact the change had on your search visibility.
3Automatic keyword discovery at scale
AppJubilee tracks 1,000+ keywords automatically by scraping the full Shopify App Store search index daily. The SASI component (now part of Mantle) tracks up to 10 manually selected keywords across the first 2 pages of results.
4Competitor universe mapping
AppJubilee automatically identifies every app competing with you based on keyword overlap — giving you a complete picture of your competitive landscape, not just your own rankings.

Frequently asked questions
Is App Store Analytics still available?
Not as a standalone product. It was acquired by Mantle (Heymantle) and its features are now integrated into the Mantle platform. To access App Store Analytics functionality, you need a Mantle subscription.
Was AppJubilee inspired by App Store Analytics?
Both products address the same fundamental problem: Shopify app developers have no visibility into how the App Store works. AppJubilee was built independently by a Shopify app developer who experienced this pain firsthand. The approach differs — AppJubilee emphasizes automatic keyword discovery and competitive intelligence, while ASA's original strength was historical listing change archives.
Which has more historical data?
App Store Analytics / SASI has been collecting data longer, as it was one of the earliest products in this space. AppJubilee has 90+ days of historical data that populates on signup and is actively expanding its historical depth. For recent data (last 90 days), AppJubilee provides significantly more granular keyword and competitive intelligence.
