The old way costs you hours

Getting Google Play data into Claude used to mean manual browsing across multiple tabs.

Before
  • Open Play Store, search your keyword, scroll through results
  • Click into each app to find install counts, ratings, and details
  • Manually note review text, developer info, and recent changes
  • Compile into a doc and upload to Claude
  • Finding similar apps means repeating the whole process manually
After
  • Open Claude
  • "Search Google Play for 'budgeting app' in the US and show me the top 10 with ratings and installs"
  • Claude searches, pulls results, and surfaces similar apps if needed
  • Ask follow-ups, pull reviews, switch country - no starting over
  • Done.

Built for marketing teams

Three Google Play workflows that used to take hours and now happen inside Claude.

App Category Competitive Mapping

Entering a new app category or benchmarking your app? Search the category keyword, get the top 20 results with install counts and ratings, then pull similar apps for your direct competitor. Get a full competitive map in one conversation.

"Search Google Play US for 'expense tracker' and show me the top 10 by installs. Then find similar apps to com.intuit.quickbooks and identify any apps in both lists."

Saves ~5 hours per competitive audit

App Store Review Sentiment Analysis

Need to understand why a competitor app is losing ratings? Pull their latest reviews and ask Claude to identify recurring complaints, the version where issues started, and whether the developer is responding. All without opening the Play Store.

"Pull the last 50 reviews for com.competitor.app. Summarise the most common complaints, note which app version they reference, and tell me if the developer is replying to negative reviews."

Saves ~4 hours per review analysis

App Market Research for Product Teams

Product team needs a full picture of the competitive landscape before a feature sprint. Pull full metadata for five competitor apps - installs, IAP range, changelog, Android requirements, and developer contact - all in one call.

"Get full app details for com.app1, com.app2, com.app3, com.app4, and com.app5. Compare their install counts, IAP ranges, content ratings, and when they last updated."

Saves ~6 hours per product research session

Frequently asked questions

No. The connector extracts publicly available data from the Google Play Store - the same data visible to anyone browsing the Play Store without an account. No Google developer account, Google Play API access, or technical setup is required.

search_google_play finds apps by keyword. get_google_play_reviews pulls user reviews for specific apps. get_google_play_app_details returns full metadata including installs, IAP range, changelog, and developer contact. get_google_play_similar finds what Google considers similar to a given app. Claude can chain all four in a single conversation without you needing to copy App IDs between steps.

You can use either the App ID (like com.instagram.android) or a full Play Store URL. If you don't know the App ID, just search by keyword first and Claude will surface the apps along with their IDs, then you can reference them by name in follow-up requests.

App search costs 1 credit per 50 results returned. User reviews cost 1 credit per 50 reviews returned. Full app details cost 1 credit per app. Similar app discovery costs 1 credit per input app regardless of how many similar apps are returned. Your dashboard shows exact costs before and after each call.

The connector works with Claude.ai (Pro and Team plans support custom connectors), Claude Desktop, Claude Code, and Claude Cowork. Any Claude client that supports MCP will work.
