The Problem
Product managers need competitive app review intelligence but direct App Store and Google Play scraping is fragile and violates ToS. Review aggregator APIs charge $50-200/mo for limited coverage. Manual review reading caps at 2-3 competitor apps and misses sentiment shifts between monthly check-ins.
How Scavio Helps
- Daily competitor review monitoring at $0.05/day for 5 apps
- Google-indexed reviews plus Reddit community discussions
- Sentiment shift detection within 24 hours
- No app store scraping or ToS violations
- Negative keyword scoring identifies bugs and complaints automatically

Quick Start: Python Example
Here is a quick example searching Google for "A productivity app tracks 5 competitors daily. For each: Google search for '[app] app reviews 2026' and Reddit search for '[app] app'. Sentiment scoring counts negative keywords (bug, crash, slow). Detected a competitor's major sync bug mentioned in 30+ reviews 3 weeks before the competitor acknowledged it publicly. 10 searches/day at $0.05.":
