The 25 Applyra MCP tools, and what each one does
Every tool the Applyra MCP server exposes to an AI assistant, grouped by job: applications, keywords, metadata, competitors, discovery and account usage.
Video transcript
The MCP server gives your assistant twenty-five tools. You never call them yourself: the assistant picks them from your question. They fall into six groups. Applications: your apps, their visibility score history, and their ASO Health. Keywords: positions, rank history, and inspecting any keyword, tracked or not. Metadata: check a draft against the store's rules, and score it on the engine that audits real listings. Competitors. Discovery: autocomplete, niche analyses and top charts. And your account's usage. Ask what the App Store suggests for "to do", and to inspect the three closest to your app. The assistant finds your app first, then runs the store's autocomplete, then scores each suggestion: difficulty, traffic and KEI. Six tools write, and only to your Applyra account: adding an app, tracking, untracking and favoriting keywords, adding and removing competitors. Ask it to track the best two, and each one gets its first position right away. Your published listing is never touched.
The MCP server exposes twenty-five tools, in six groups: applications, keywords, metadata, competitors, discovery and account usage. Most are read-only, and the six that write change what your Applyra account tracks, never your store listing. Together they cover the same ground as the REST API endpoints, so an assistant reaches everything a script would.

Frequently asked questions
What can an AI assistant do with Applyra?
Through the MCP server it can list and add apps, track and untrack keywords, read rank and score history, inspect any keyword, read the ASO Health audit, score a draft listing, manage competitors, run autocomplete and niche analyses, and read the top charts.
Can an assistant change my store listing through Applyra?
No. Nothing in Applyra writes to the App Store or Google Play. The write tools only change what your Applyra account tracks: apps, keywords and competitors.
Which Applyra MCP tools can change my data?
Six of the twenty-five: add_application, track_keywords, untrack_keyword, set_keyword_favorite, add_competitor and remove_competitor. Every other tool reads, and none of them touches your published store listing.
How many keywords can an AI assistant add to Applyra at once?
Up to 20 for one app per call of track_keywords, and each keyword has its position read from the store straight away. An assistant asked for more simply makes several calls.
