Sonar
Wire ASO keyword research, rank tracking, and iOS/Android competitor intel into your agent while you ship or refresh store listings.
Overview
app.trysonar/sonar is an MCP server for the Launch phase that exposes Sonar ASO keyword research, rank tracking, and competitor analysis for iOS and Android.
What is this MCP server?
- Keyword research surfaced to the agent via Sonar API
- Rank tracking for iOS and Android listings
- Competitor analysis across both mobile stores
- Requires SONAR_API_KEY (aso_...) from trysonar.app
- npm @sonarapp/mcp v0.3.1 with configurable SONAR_API_URL
- Registry version 0.3.1
- npm identifier @sonarapp/mcp
- Required env SONAR_API_KEY
What problem does it solve?
Store optimization data lives in another dashboard, so your agent cannot help you iterate listings with live keyword and rank context.
Who is it for?
Solo founders shipping or growing a mobile app who already use Sonar and want ASO queries inside Claude Code or Cursor.
Skip if: Web-only SEO, desktop apps with no store listing, or builders unwilling to create a Sonar API key.
What do I get? / Deliverables
Your agent pulls Sonar ASO metrics on demand so you can revise store copy and positioning with data in the same workflow.
- Agent-driven ASO keyword and rank snapshots
- Competitor comparison context for store listing edits
- Faster iteration on iOS and Android metadata in-agent
Recommended MCP Servers
Journey fit
Launch is the canonical phase for store visibility work; this server exists to improve discovery in App Store and Google Play. ASO subphase matches keyword, ranking, and competitor tooling rather than web SEO or paid distribution.
How it compares
Mobile ASO API MCP—not a generic SEO crawler or an app-store upload CLI.
