In 50 words

VisualASO is a Mac app for App Store keyword research. It checks where an app ranks for each phrase in each country, how many people search for it, and how hard the top ten is to reach — then writes and translates the listing with the AI tool the developer already uses. Free to start; Pro is one payment.

In 100 words

VisualASO is a Mac app that finds the App Store keywords an app can win, in every country it sells in. It reads ranks from the App Store's own search page, measures demand from Apple's search suggestions (and Apple Ads popularity, if the developer signs in), and labels which source produced every number. Its Map places each phrase by demand and difficulty, with the openings shaded. Optimize writes listing options with the developer's own Claude Code, Codex or local model, translates them per country, and fills a new App Store Connect version without submitting it. Keywords stay on the Mac. Free for one app; Pro is $99 once.

Who makes it

VisualASO is made by Ziggy, founder of Must Have Apps SIA, a small studio in Latvia that makes iPhone apps. He built it for his own eight apps and still runs it on them every week.
