• Review Query (review-query)

One keyword ranking row (tracked app rank or top-N app).

• Suggestion row (suggestion-row)
• Keyword popularity & difficulty (metrics-row)

One app's full public store metadata from the Apple App Store (iTunes lookup) or Google Play (logged-out public app page): title, developer, category, price, currency, rating, ratings count, Play install bucket, release/updated dates, content rating, and store URL.

Per dataset item produced

• Start (start)

One row per Google Play app with installs, ratings, price, version and developer contacts. Filtered apps and links that fail are free. No fee per run.

• Review (review)

Single result in the default dataset.

• Per-app enrichment (perapp-enrichment)
• Mover or anomaly event (mover-event)

One App Store or Google Play review, in the same shape for both stores: star rating, title, full text, date, the app version it was written on, reviewer name, helpful votes, the developer's reply with its date, and the storefront or country and language it was read from. Deduplicated on the store's own review id, so a review reached through more than one storefront or sort order is charged once. Error rows, the per-app coverage report, apps that could not be found, and reviews that fail your own filters are all free, and there is no run-start fee.

• app profile (app-profile)

One row per Google Play review: stars, text, author, date, thumbs-up, app version, feature ratings, developer reply. Duplicates, reviews outside your filters and unknown apps are free. No fee per run.

• App summary (app)

Charged per app returned by App Search or a Top Chart.

• App Detail Result (app-detail-result)
• App Review Result (app-review-result)

• App (app-search-result)

Charged once per customer review returned.

• App details fetched (app-details-fetched)

One app row from search, top charts, similar or a developer portfolio.

• App detail (app-detail)
• Review (review-result)

One keyword × app × store × country rank observation (found or definite not-found). Change/baseline/summary/error rows are free.

One new review found and delivered since the previous run

• App-country poll (poll)

One app review returned with its stars, text, date, version and developer reply. Apps with no review, duplicates and input mistakes are free.

One app (details or list entry) returned in the dataset

• Review scraped (review-scraped)

One review saved to the dataset (App Store or Google Play).

• Actor Start (actor-start)

One app on one store search: the app's position in the order the Google Play or App Store search page shows for the keyword and country, or not-in-shown-results for a tracked app that is not on that page, with how many apps the page showed, the app's name, developer, rating, installs or rating count, genre, price, icon and store link, and the app at position 1. With no apps listed, one row for every app the search page shows. In monitoring mode only first checks and changed positions (confirmed by reading the page a second time) are returned and charged at this price; each tracked app checked is also charged the separate check fee. Searches that could not be read, unknown countries and invalid input come back as free rows with the reason.

• App rank checked (monitoring) (app-rank-checked)

One app review (Google Play or App Store) saved to the dataset, with rating, text, author, date, app version and developer reply.

• App details (app-details)
• Search result (search-result)
• Top chart entry (chart-entry)
• Minimum per request (top-up) (minimum-top-up)

One scraped app or review. No start fee, no minimum; failed or empty runs charge nothing.
