Sonar

WRITE tool — cancel a scheduled reply (manual or auto mode) before it posts; it goes back to draft. Requires an Indie plan (trial counts) and an authorized Sonar account or an API key with the write scope.

Keywords a tracked competitor currently ranks for (last 7 days of SERP data), with difficulty and popularity per keyword. Pass own_app_id for gap analysis: keywords where the competitor ranks but your app doesn't are marked gap=missing. Cursor-paginated (default 50 per page). Requires an Indie plan (trial counts). `popularity` (5-100) is the value Sonar's dashboard shows: Apple's Search Popularity when Apple has a real reading; when Apple reports a keyword below its threshold (popularity_apple 5, about 20) it is Sonar's estimate (at most 18). `popularity_source` says which (apple | proxy), `po…

The full competitive keyword picture for one of your own apps vs every tracked competitor, in one call: live stats (keyword gaps where competitors rank and you don't, winnable gaps, competitors climbing on your tracked keywords, keywords you lead), the top gap/threat/lead rows with metrics, and the latest AI insight if one was generated (opportunity clusters, threat narratives, strengths, posture). Use it when choosing which keywords to target next. Requires an Indie plan (trial counts).

WRITE tool — creates a product in the caller's Sonar workspace and starts tracking the given app(s). A product is the cross-store unit (one iOS + one Android app, or just one of either). Returns the product id and the Sonar app ids needed by sonar_track_keywords and sonar_track_competitor. Own apps count against the plan cap (Indie 10, Agency 50; competitors are not capped) — at the cap the call fails with a 403 plan_limit error. Requires an Indie plan (trial counts) and an authorized Sonar account or an API key with the write scope.

Create an app-store screenshot set for a product, from your own `screens` layouts or a built-in template. The layout JSON format and template ids are documented by sonar_screenshot_layout_guide. The set is immediately visible/editable for humans in the Screenshot Studio (studio_url in the response). Requires an Indie plan (trial counts) and an authorized Sonar account or a write-scope API key.

WRITE tool — delete an alert subscription in the caller's Sonar workspace. Requires an Indie plan (trial counts) and an authorized Sonar account or an API key with the write scope.

WRITE tool — delete a product in the caller's Sonar workspace and untrack every app linked to it, with their tracked keywords, discovered keywords, and competitor links. The product's screenshot sets are deleted too. Shared store data (app metadata, snapshots, rank history) is not deleted. Returns { id, deleted, untracked_apps }. Requires an Indie plan (trial counts) and an authorized Sonar account or an API key with the write scope.

Delete one screen from a screenshot set. A set keeps at least one screen — deleting the last one is rejected. Requires an Indie plan (trial counts) and an authorized Sonar account or a write-scope API key.

Permanently delete a screenshot set and everything in it (screens, translations). Irreversible — confirm with the user before deleting work they may want. Requires an Indie plan (trial counts) and an authorized Sonar account or a write-scope API key.

WRITE tool — stop tracking one keyword/app pair in the caller's Sonar workspace. Identify the pair by its tracked-keyword id (from sonar_app_keywords). Equivalent to sonar_untrack_keywords with a single id; that tool removes several (or all) of an app's keywords in one call. Requires an Indie plan (trial counts) and an authorized Sonar account or an API key with the write scope.

Keywords Sonar's discovery engine surfaced for one of your tracked apps but that aren't tracked yet — ranked finds (the app already ranks, unnoticed), competitor gaps, and AI/autocomplete-sourced ideas — each with popularity, difficulty, AI relevance, and an opportunity score (0-100, best first). This is Sonar's "what should I track next" answer; rows can be tracked with sonar_track_keywords. Requires an Indie plan (trial counts). `popularity` (5-100) is the value Sonar's dashboard shows: Apple's Search Popularity when Apple has a real reading; when Apple reports a keyword below its threshold …

WRITE tool — mark a review as not needing a reply (also cancels a scheduled post). Requires an Indie plan (trial counts) and an authorized Sonar account or an API key with the write scope.

WRITE tool — write a fresh AI reply draft for a review using the app's instructions (and an optional hint), with English translations. Counts against the monthly AI-draft allowance, then 1 credit per draft. Never posts. Tip: agents can skip this and write the reply themselves with sonar_update_review_reply (not metered). Requires an Indie plan (trial counts) and an authorized Sonar account or an API key with the write scope.

WRITE tool — generates a fresh AI review analysis for a tracked app from its recent reviews (praise/complaint themes, sentiment, feature requests, trend vs the previous run). At most one analysis per app+country every 90 days (429 with the next available time while in cooldown — use sonar_review_insights to read the current one); needs at least 5 recent reviews. Requires a paid (non-trial) Indie plan and an authorized Sonar account or an API key with the write scope.

Get full details for one tracked app in the caller's Sonar workspace: store metadata plus up to 90 daily snapshots of rating, review count, version, and installs. Requires an Indie plan (trial counts).

Fetch a screenshot set in full: every screen's layout JSON plus per-screen translation overrides keyed by locale. By default inline image data is replaced with placeholders to keep the response readable. Requires an Indie plan (trial counts).

Difficulty + popularity for a specific keyword (or up to 25 in bulk). Use this when you already know which keywords you care about — costs 1 credit per keyword. Works without an API key for up to 5 keywords/day (free tier, per IP); an API key removes that cap. Use sonar_keyword_search instead when you want related keyword ideas alongside metrics. Answers within about 30 seconds: a keyword that can't be computed in that time comes back as `pending` (queued on Sonar's scrape fleet, not charged, results are being cached) — call again after `retry_after_seconds` for just those keywords. Each row c…

SERP history for one tracked keyword — which apps ranked in the top results on each measured day, newest first. Use this to see who competes on a keyword and how the top spots shifted over time. The keyword must be tracked in the caller's Sonar workspace. Requires an Indie plan (trial counts).

Research a keyword and related terms. Returns up to 10 rows — the seed keyword plus the store's top autocomplete suggestions — each with difficulty (0-100), popularity score, and results count. Use this to find keywords worth targeting; for metrics on terms you already know, sonar_keyword_metrics is cheaper. On prepaid API credits it costs 10 credits per call (rows that could not be computed are refunded); it needs a Sonar API key or connected account and is not part of the free tier. Answers within about 30 seconds. Each row carries `measured_at` (difficulty) and `popularity_measured_at` (pop…

Get autocomplete suggestions for a seed keyword from the App Store or Google Play, in the order the store shows them. List position is the only demand signal: the `priority` field is 0 on Google Play and currently 0 on the App Store as well. Lighter and faster than sonar_keyword_search — use when you only need term ideas without difficulty/popularity scoring. Works without an API key (free tier, limited daily use per IP). If the store is throttling, the result may be Sonar's stored copy: it then comes back as `{ data, meta }` with `meta.stale: true`, its date in `meta.stale_as_of`, and a `meta…

List your alert subscriptions — each rule defines a change type (rank drops, review spikes, etc.), its scope (a specific app or org-wide), threshold, and whether it's enabled. Requires an Indie plan (trial counts).

List the apps tracked in the caller's Sonar workspace (own apps + competitors), each with its latest snapshot (rating, review count, version, installs). Returns the Sonar app UUIDs needed by sonar_get_app, sonar_app_keywords, sonar_app_rankings, and sonar_app_changes. Cursor-paginated (default 100 per page). Requires an Indie plan (trial counts).

List every product in your workspace (unpaginated): each product's id, name, country, competitor count, and its linked store versions (Sonar app id, store, store_id, name). Product ids are what sonar_track_app, sonar_track_competitor, sonar_remove_competitor, sonar_delete_product, and the screenshot-set tools take; for per-app snapshots and competitor apps use sonar_list_apps. Requires an Indie plan (trial counts).

List a product's app-store screenshot sets (metadata only: store, device size, locales, studio_url). Use sonar_get_screenshot_set for full layouts. Requires an Indie plan (trial counts).

The whole portfolio's health in one call — for orgs managing many apps: per-app KPIs (visibility + 7-day delta, ranked/top-10 counts, net rank movement, rating, review count), org-wide totals, the biggest keyword movers in both directions, a needs-attention triage list (visibility drops, rating drops, not-ranked apps), and the best discovered-keyword opportunities across all apps. Same numbers as the /portfolio page. Requires an Agency plan (403 on other plans).

WRITE tool — PUBLIC ACTION: publishes the reply on the App Store under the developer's name (now, or after delay_minutes). Overwrites an existing response (Apple keeps one per review and marks it edited). Apple shows it within ~24h: status pending_publish, then published. Needs an Admin-role App Store Connect key. Requires an Indie plan (trial counts) and an authorized Sonar account or an API key with the write scope.

WRITE tool — remove a competitor from a product in the caller's Sonar workspace. Drops the competitor link under every own app of the product; if no other own app in the workspace still references the competitor, the competitor app is untracked as well. 404 when the product has no such competitor. Requires an Indie plan (trial counts) and an authorized Sonar account or an API key with the write scope.

An own iOS app's App Store reviews (synced from App Store Connect every 5 minutes) with their reply state: the AI draft or your text, English translations of non-English reviews and drafts, hold reasons (needs_human, quota, daily_cap), schedule time, and any live App Store response. Newest first, with per-status counts. Use the review `id` with sonar_update_review_reply / sonar_post_review_reply. Requires an Indie plan (trial counts), App Store Connect connected in Sonar, and the app to be one of your own iOS apps.

The latest AI review analysis for a tracked app (your own or a competitor): what users praise and complain about as named themes with frequency, verbatim quotes, and trend movement (new / persisting / growing / improving / resolved), plus overall sentiment, surfaced feature requests, and what changed vs the previous analysis. `insight` is null if none has been generated yet — use sonar_generate_review_insights. Requires an Indie plan (trial counts).

The review responder's configuration for an own iOS app: whether it is switched on, manual vs auto mode (auto posts AI replies after a delay, only for reviews written after auto was enabled and within the star range), the reply instructions, sign-off, reply language, last sync, plus whether App Store Connect is connected and this month's AI-draft usage (included allowance, then 1 credit per extra draft). settings is null until the responder is switched on. Requires an Indie plan (trial counts), App Store Connect connected in Sonar, and the app to be one of your own iOS apps.

WRITE tool — runs an AI keyword discovery scan on a tracked competitor: generates the search terms the competitor's listing is optimized for (brand terms included), queues them for SERP verification, and verifies the first batch inline (~30s), recording both apps' ranks. Returns generated/queued/verified_now counts; the rest verify in the background over the following hours — read results with sonar_competitor_keywords. Each account can scan a limited number of different competitors per UTC day (50 on trial and Indie, 250 on Agency); re-scanning one already scanned today is free, and past the …

List the device sizes supported for app-store screenshot sets, with their canvas dimensions (the pixel coordinate space all layouts use) and which store each belongs to — including the landscape App Store creative-asset canvases (category "creative": product page header and search results asset). Pick a device here before sonar_create_screenshot_set. Requires an Indie plan (trial counts).

The layout-format reference for Sonar screenshot sets: static text, so one call per session is enough. It documents the layout JSON schema, coordinate system, image handling (remote URLs), flowing background shapes, fonts, translation overrides, and the recommended workflow.

WRITE tool — create or update an alert subscription in the caller's Sonar workspace. Upserts on (type + scope): re-submitting the same type/scope updates the existing rule. Omit `threshold` for the per-type default; omit `scope_app_id` for an org-wide rule. Requires an Indie plan (trial counts) and an authorized Sonar account or an API key with the write scope.

WRITE tool — switch the review responder on/off for an own iOS app and update its instructions or auto-mode policy (partial update; omitted fields keep their value). Turning auto mode on only affects reviews written afterwards; anything the AI flags as needing a human is held. Requires an Indie plan (trial counts) and an authorized Sonar account or an API key with the write scope.

Write a locale's translation overrides for screens in a screenshot set (text copy, localized captures/images). Geometry and styling always come from the source layout; anything not overridden falls back to it. The locale is auto-enabled on the set. Requires an Indie plan (trial counts) and an authorized Sonar account or a write-scope API key.

WRITE tool — stars or unstars a tracked keyword in the caller's Sonar workspace. A star marks the keyword as a favorite/target the user is actively pursuing; starred keywords carry a starred_at timestamp in sonar_app_keywords results. Idempotent: re-starring refreshes the timestamp, unstarring a non-starred keyword is a no-op. Requires an Indie plan (trial counts) and an authorized Sonar account or an API key with the write scope.

Get a store top chart (free / paid / grossing, overall or by category) with day-over-day movement: per-app rank delta, apps new to the chart, biggest movers and apps that dropped out. Use to see what's rising in a market or category. Note: summary, movers and droppedApps always describe the full top 200 — `limit` truncates the returned entries only. Movement is empty on the first day a chart is requested (no previous snapshot yet). Answers within about 30 seconds: when a live refresh can't finish in time the newest stored chart is returned with `stale: true` and its `measuredAt` date. Works wi…

WRITE tool — links the second-store version of an existing Sonar product (e.g. the product already tracks the iOS app and you want to add the Android version, or vice versa). Each product holds at most one iOS + one Android app; to start tracking a brand-new app, use sonar_create_product instead. Requires an Indie plan (trial counts) and an authorized Sonar account or an API key with the write scope.

WRITE tool — adds a competitor app under a Sonar product so its keywords and rankings get tracked alongside the product's own app. The product must already have its own app linked in the same store as the competitor. Requires an Indie plan (trial counts) and an authorized Sonar account or an API key with the write scope.

WRITE tool — starts daily rank tracking for one or more keywords on an app in the caller's Sonar workspace. Idempotent: re-posting the same terms reports them as already_tracked instead of creating duplicates. Returns per-keyword outcomes (created / already_tracked / failed). Tracked keywords count against the workspace's plan cap (Indie 2,500, Agency 10,000 per workspace); terms beyond the remaining headroom come back as failed with the plan-limit message while the rest are still tracked. Requires an Indie plan (trial counts) and an authorized Sonar account or an API key with the write scope.

WRITE tool — untrack an app in the caller's Sonar workspace. Deletes the workspace's tracked keywords for it (with their notes and stars), its discovered keywords, and its competitor links, and detaches it from its product — deleting the product, and that product's screenshot sets, if no other app is left. Shared store data (app metadata, snapshots, rank history) is not deleted. To drop a competitor from one product use sonar_remove_competitor instead. Requires an Indie plan (trial counts) and an authorized Sonar account or an API key with the write scope.

WRITE tool — bulk-untrack keywords for an app in the caller's Sonar workspace. Pass `all: true` to remove every tracked keyword, OR `ids: [...]` to remove specific ones (exactly one of the two). For a single keyword, sonar_delete_tracked_keyword is equivalent. Requires an Indie plan (trial counts) and an authorized Sonar account or an API key with the write scope.

WRITE tool — sets or clears the note on a tracked keyword in the caller's Sonar workspace (e.g. why it's tracked, an optimization hypothesis, a reminder). Idempotent: re-sending the same note is a no-op. Requires an Indie plan (trial counts) and an authorized Sonar account or an API key with the write scope.

WRITE tool — replace a review's reply text (not metered, doesn't post). Use sonar_post_review_reply to publish. Requires an Indie plan (trial counts) and an authorized Sonar account or an API key with the write scope.

Replace one screen's layout in a screenshot set. Whole-document replace — fetch the current layout, modify it, send it back. The change shows up immediately in the Screenshot Studio for human review. Requires an Indie plan (trial counts) and an authorized Sonar account or a write-scope API key.

Rename a screenshot set, replace its extra-locale list, and/or reorder its screens. Returns the updated set (with image data stripped). Requires an Indie plan (trial counts) and an authorized Sonar account or a write-scope API key.
