Overview

Description from the maker (original English)

App Store and Google Play keyword ranks, keyword research and competitors for your apps.

PopNx MCP’s three pillars

These three are never merged into one score: opinions, measurements and popularity are different things.

What you can do with it

We have not written a plain-language summary for this one yet. Below are the facts we read from the registry.

  • Connection: Runs in the cloud
  • Transport: Streamable HTTP
  • Category: Search & AI memory

Install

Pick the AI app you use, then copy the settings.

Before you install

  • Basic checks: 1 of 1 passed
  • Runs on the maker’s server: what you ask it goes through their server.
  • The registry lists no key to fill in.

Which app do you use?

Pick your app above. We remember it, so next time the button says “Install in …”.

Or copy the settings yourself

Paste into .cursor/mcp.json in your project, or ~/.cursor/mcp.json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "apprankhero": {
      "url": "https://apprankhero.com/mcp"
    }

Your browser asks to open the app, then the app shows the settings and asks you to confirm. Key values are left empty for you to fill in.

Open in VS Code

Or copy the settings yourself

Paste into .vscode/mcp.json in your project

{
  "servers": {
    "apprankhero": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://apprankhero.com/mcp"
    }
  }
}

ChatGPT connects only to servers on the internet:

  1. Open ChatGPT on the web → Settings → Connectors (Apps)
  2. Press Create or Add (some plans need Developer mode under Advanced first)
  3. Paste the address below, give it a name and save
  4. If it asks you to sign in, sign in with the maker
SettingsConnectors1+ Create2https://…3

Menu names can differ slightly by plan and over time.

Your choice stays on this device in a cookie; no account needed.

These settings are generated from the maker’s registry entry. If the README says otherwise, follow the README.

What it can do

Compared with others in Search & AI memoryi

  • More stars than 0% of the other 7281 servers in this category
  • Published to the registry more recently than 61% of the other 7281 servers in this category
  • Basic checks equal to or better than 100% of the other 7281 servers in this category

Compared with every active server in this category in the registry. Stars count only when the publisher owns the repo.

Common questions

Is AppRankHero safe?

It passed 1 of 1 applicable basic checks. We have not read the code. Before adding a key or token, see what access the server asks for and use a key with only the permissions you need.

What keys or codes does it need?

The registry does not list a required key, though some servers ask you to sign in on first use.

Does it run on my computer or in the cloud?

It runs in the maker’s cloud. Connect over the internet with nothing to install, but what you send passes through the maker’s servers.

Is it still maintained?

The GitHub repo last changed –, and the latest version (1.3.0) reached the registry 24 days ago.

Which apps can use it?

Apps that support MCP, such as Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor and VS Code. It connects by URL, so apps that accept remote MCP servers work too, such as ChatGPT in developer mode.

What can I use instead?

In the same category: Context7, Codebase Memory, Exa

AppRankHero MCP server

Your AppRankHero keyword rankings for the App Store (iOS) and Google Play (Android), inside ChatGPT, Claude, Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, VS Code, Windsurf, Gemini CLI and any other MCP client.

Ask in plain language:

  • *"Which of my keywords dropped out of the top 10 this week?"*
  • *"Find popular, low difficulty keywords for a habit tracker in Germany."*
  • *"Who outranks me for 'focus timer' and what do they have in their title?"*
  • *"Track 'app blocker' and 'screen time' for my app in the US and UK."*

Answers come live from your AppRankHero data, refreshed every morning.

Requirements

An AppRankHero Pro or Studio plan. Your license key starts with ARH- and is in the Mac app under Account. See plans and how to activate a key.

Hosted server (recommended)

Nothing to install. One URL for every client:

https://apprankhero.com/mcp

Streamable HTTP, two ways to sign in:

  • OAuth. ChatGPT, Claude and Perplexity open an AppRankHero page where you paste your license key once.
  • Bearer header. Developer tools send Authorization: Bearer ARH-XXXX.
Claude (claude.ai and Claude Desktop)

Settings, Connectors, Add custom connector, paste the URL, Connect.

ChatGPT

Settings, Apps, turn on Developer mode, Create, paste the URL, Authentication OAuth, Connect.

Claude Code
claude mcp add --transport http apprankhero https://apprankhero.com/mcp \

--scope user --header "Authorization: Bearer ARH-XXXX"

Codex
export ARH_TOKEN=ARH-XXXX

codex mcp add apprankhero --url https://apprankhero.com/mcp --bearer-token-env-var ARH_TOKEN

Cursor, Windsurf, VS Code and other JSON configs
{

"mcpServers": { "apprankhero": { "url": "https://apprankhero.com/mcp", "headers": { "Authorization": "Bearer ARH-XXXX" } } } }

VS Code uses "servers" instead of "mcpServers" and "type": "http". Step by step guides for every client: apprankhero.com/help/connect-ai-tools-mcp.

Local stdio server

For clients that only run local servers. Needs Node.js 18 or later.

{

"mcpServers": { "apprankhero": { "command": "npx", "args": ["-y", "github:DedalDev/apprankhero-mcp"], "env": { "ARH_LICENSE_KEY": "ARH-XXXX" } } } }

Every tool carries MCP annotations (readOnlyHint, destructiveHint, idempotentHint, openWorldHint) so clients can ask before write calls. Write tools need the owner or member role; viewers are read only. Plan limits apply exactly as in the Mac app.

App Store and Google Play
  • platform is ios (App Store, default) or android (Google Play) on arh_search_store_apps, arh_add_app, arh_search_keywords and arh_competitors. Tracked apps already know their store.
  • store_id is the numeric App Store id (6772967892) or the package name (com.example.app).
  • Ranks are tracked within the top 200 on the App Store and the top 30 on Google Play. Rank 0 means not ranked in that range.
