About

HappyKeywords is a Mac app for App Store keyword research. Add a keyword in English and it finds the phrase people actually search in each of 50+ countries, with your rank, estimated demand and difficulty there. An Audit scores your listing out of 100 per country and says what to fix first.

It writes your name, subtitle and keyword field with the AI you already use (Claude Code, Codex, Gemini or a free local model), so there are no AI credits to buy. Changes go to your draft in App Store Connect with Undo, and every update keeps your ranks before and after, so you can see if it worked.

Try it free for 7 days, no card or account. Then pay once, no subscription.

From the founder

Who it's for

“iOS and Mac developers who do their own App Store optimization and want to see how their keywords rank in every country, without paying a monthly fee.”

About me

“I make iOS and Google apps. The ASO tools I tried were monthly subscriptions built for marketing teams, so built a Mac app that uses the AI I already pay for. Plus I always wanted extra features that were missing in other tools so I developed those in HappyKeywords.”

— Yury Brei, founder of HappyKeywords

Who it is for

Indie iOS and Mac app developers managing App Store listings across multiple countries
Solo app developers who want to use the AI subscription they already pay for instead of buying AI credits

FAQ

What are demand and difficulty?

Estimates from live App Store results: how many established apps target a phrase, and how strong the top results are. They're for comparing keywords, not Apple's search counts.

Which countries can I research?

Over 50 App Store countries, each searched in its own language. You pick the countries for each app.

Do I need App Store Connect?

No. Without a key, HappyKeywords reads your public listing. With one, it also reads your keyword field and can upload your new listing.

Will it change my App Store page?

Only when you press Upload. It shows every change first, writes into your draft version in App Store Connect, and Undo puts it back. You send the version for review yourself.

Which AI does it use?

The one you already have: Claude Code, Codex, Gemini, Copilot, Grok, OpenCode or a free local model through Ollama. No extra AI subscription or credits.

Where is my data stored?

On your Mac, not on our servers. Your App Store Connect key stays in your Mac's Keychain.

Which computers does it run on?

macOS 14 or later, on Apple Silicon or Intel. Windows is planned after the Mac launch.

When can I get it?

Now: Early Access is open. Version 1.0 comes out December 14, 2026, as a free update.
