What is HappyKeywords?
HappyKeywords is a Mac app for indie iOS and Mac developers who want more App Store downloads from search. It finds keywords in 50+ countries, checks your ranks every day, and estimates demand and difficulty from live App Store results. Every number says what it is made of, and each screen points to one next step.
It rewrites your name, subtitle and keyword field (and localizes them) using the AI you already have: Claude Code, Codex, Gemini, Copilot or a local model through Ollama. No AI credits to buy. You review every change, then upload it to your App Store Connect draft. Each change is recorded with your ranks before and after, and can be put back.
Pay once, no subscription: $29 in Early Access, $39 in launch week (Dec 14–20), then $49, for 2 Macs. Free 7-day trial, no account or card. Your data stays on your Mac.

HappyKeywords FAQ
Is HappyKeywords free?
There is a free 7-day trial with no account or card. After that it is a one-time payment: $29 in Early Access, $39 in launch week (Dec 14–20), then $49, for 2 Macs. No subscription and no AI credits.
Does HappyKeywords work on Windows?
No. It runs on macOS 14 or later, on Apple Silicon and Intel. Windows is planned after the Mac launch.
What AI models does HappyKeywords use?
It uses the AI you already have: Claude Code, Codex, Gemini, Copilot, Grok, OpenCode, or a local model through Ollama. It shows how many AI requests a job takes before it starts, and you never buy credits from HappyKeywords.
Is HappyKeywords open source?
No, it is a paid Mac app. All your data stays on your Mac.
How does HappyKeywords track App Store ranks?
It searches the App Store in each country you pick and records where your app appears for each keyword, every day. Demand and difficulty are 0–100 estimates from live search results, not Apple's search counts, and each one shows what it is made of.
