Looking for an App Radar (formerly TheTool) alternative

If you remember TheTool: it's not a separate product anymore. App Radar acquired it in February 2021, and thetool.io now redirects straight to appradar.com. App Radar itself is a full ASO suite — keyword tracking, competitor monitoring, review management, an AI reply layer — priced from €69/month for 2 apps and 500 keywords, up to €299/month for 15 apps before Enterprise quoting kicks in.

App Radar's tiers also gate review-reply volume, competitor count and seats — the table above only compares apps and keywords, the two limits that scale cost fastest. Checked August 2026.

02Two different products

App Radar is a suite built around review workflow: AI-assisted replies, review summarization, an API add-on, and account management on the higher tiers, priced from €69/month for 2 apps and 500 keywords.

Storelift does one thing: it reads where your listing actually sits in App Store and Google Play search, across the keywords people type, and shows the gap to whoever's above you. No review inbox, no AI replies — just the ranking data, at a tenth of App Radar's entry price.

Frequently asked

Is TheTool still a separate product?

No. App Radar acquired TheTool in February 2021 and merged the accounts; thetool.io now redirects to appradar.com. Anyone comparing tools today is comparing App Radar, not TheTool.

Does App Radar have a free plan?

Not based on its published pricing page — the cheapest published tier is Essentials at €69/month (€58/month billed annually) for 2 apps and 500 keywords.

When is App Radar worth the higher price?

App Radar is priced for review-reply volume and multi-market account management. If the question is keyword rank on App Store and Google Play, Storelift covers that from $0, then $20/month.
