# Analytics & billing tools for Shopify app developers Source: watchfor.tools, an independent directory for people who build Shopify apps. No paid placement, no affiliate links. Not affiliated with Shopify. Canonical: https://watchfor.tools/categories/biz MRR, churn and subscriptions for app businesses. The market Mantle's shutdown opened. 8 listed here, and 4 more that also belong in it. ## Tools ### Elevate Page: https://watchfor.tools/tools/elevate Summary: MRR, ARR, churn and retention for Shopify app companies. Price: Free for Marmeto partners Watch for: Free access requires being an approved Marmeto partner, which is the real product. ### Mantle (winding down) Page: https://watchfor.tools/tools/mantle Summary: Billing, analytics, email, affiliates, flows, help desk. Shutting down. Price: Winding down Watch for: Listed for orientation only. If you still bill through it, this is an engineering deadline. Flex Billing has no native equivalent. ### Fusionmetrics Page: https://watchfor.tools/tools/fusionmetrics Summary: GA4 joined to Partner billing, so an ad click can be followed to the revenue. Price: Free under $5k MRR, then $25 / $99 Watch for: One person runs it, and the site says so plainly. That is honest, and it is also the risk. This is billing and revenue reporting from a single maintainer. There is no published team, no customer count, and nothing on the site about what happens to your Partner data. The self-hosted license answers that if you want it. Revenue-banded pricing also means the bill moves when the business does. That is fair while you are small and worth modeling before you are not. ### SaaS Insights Page: https://watchfor.tools/tools/saasinsights Summary: Partner API revenue and App Store rankings on one dashboard. Price: From $49/mo with free usage until $2.5k earnings Watch for: Nobody is named anywhere on it. The about page is several paragraphs of "we" with no company, no founder and no location. The only social profile published is an X account. That is a lot of anonymity for a tool you connect a Partner API key to, and the one thing to ask about before you do. The free tier is generous, but it is a revenue threshold, not a feature limit. So the bill arrives exactly when the app starts working. It is strongly targeted at teams leaving Mantle right now. That tells you the pricing is competitive today and says nothing about where it settles. ### AppVitals Page: https://watchfor.tools/tools/appvitals Summary: Partner API revenue rebuilt from raw events, with rank tracking and uptime beside it. Price: Free, then $15/mo tier for $1k to $3k MRR Watch for: The marketing site names nobody. The legal notice shows the operator is a Czech sole trader called Jan Thér, billing through Paddle. That is one person holding a Partner API key and the complete revenue history of every app connected to it, which is worth weighing before connecting. The headline figures are not customers either: 27,300+ apps, 17,900+ developers and 932,000+ reviews are the size of its App Store index, which is roughly the App Store. Nothing published says how many teams pay for this. Revenue-banded pricing means the bill tracks the business, which is generous while you are small and worth modeling before you are not. The GA4 half needs a BigQuery export set up on your side, so attribution needs setup work first. The changelog sits behind the login, so how often it ships cannot be checked from outside. ### Luseri Page: https://watchfor.tools/tools/luseri Summary: Partner revenue, installs and App Store listing data live, with an AI assistant that reads them. Price: Free for now Watch for: One person in France runs it, Arthur Renard, who also sells a Shopify app called OptiDress. That is one individual holding read access to your Partner account and its full revenue history. It is free for now, and its terms say paid plans would come with 30 days of notice, so the long-run price is unknown. It is new: its legal pages are dated October 2026, and no user count is published. It does not track keywords you pick, only the searches GA4 saw. ### Prys Page: https://watchfor.tools/tools/prys Summary: Keyword-level revenue attribution for apps, with App Store SEO, ads and email on top. Price: Free under $1k/mo MRR, then $49.95 to $499.95/mo by MRR Watch for: Prys grew out of Convert2x, a growth agency for Shopify apps. Its about page still offers the agency to anyone who wants the work done for them. Connecting it gives one company your Partner revenue history and your GA4 data. It benchmarks you against hundreds of other Shopify apps, and the site does not say where that data comes from. Without ShopIDs in BigQuery, it matches installs to visits with its own algorithm, which it calls around 80% accurate. The figure of 500+ apps is its own claim. The company, Prys.io Ltd, is headquartered in Israel. ### PartnerDex Page: https://watchfor.tools/tools/partnerdex Summary: Open source, self-hosted Shopify app analytics and review tracking. Price: Not published Watch for: No named owner or builder is mentioned anywhere on the project page, which is notable for a tool managing potentially sensitive analytics data for Shopify apps. Additionally, there is no pricing information available, indicating that interested users might need a deep dive into the code or its documentation to assess its full functionality and potential costs. There is no clear indication of how established the tool is, with no reports on customer base or funding. ### AppstorePulse Page: https://watchfor.tools/tools/appstorepulse Listed under: App Store ASO (https://watchfor.tools/categories/aso), and also in this category Summary: Rankings, competitor alerts and real MRR in one place. Price: Free tier, then paid Watch for: Built by the maker of Wide Bundles, a bundle app in the Upsell and bundles category. If you compete there, you would be handing your keyword strategy to a company that competes in the same category. The free tier is one app, three keywords and one competitor. Search volume is a relative tier estimate, not real numbers. ### Ranksy Page: https://watchfor.tools/tools/ranksy Listed under: App Store ASO (https://watchfor.tools/categories/aso), and also in this category Summary: Follows a keyword through to the customer who paid. Price: $39 / $89 per month Watch for: There is no free plan, and the pricing page says there will not be one. So after the trial, the Chrome extension is the only free part. Attribution is only as good as what you connect. BigQuery and a Partner API key are both required. Listing traffic you have not been exporting is not backfilled, and the first useful report is some weeks away. Nobody is named anywhere on the site: no company, no founder and no social profile. For a tool you give Partner API revenue data to, ask about that before you connect it. ### Marmeto Page: https://watchfor.tools/tools/marmeto Listed under: Ecosystem suites (https://watchfor.tools/categories/suite), and also in this category Summary: Twelve products across the partner side and the merchant side. Price: Most tools free for approved partners Watch for: Most of it is free only if you register as a Marmeto partner, which is the actual product. Logistics and Payouts are white-label infrastructure you would resell. That is a different offer from the analytics tools. ### Meridian Page: https://watchfor.tools/tools/meridian Listed under: Ecosystem suites (https://watchfor.tools/categories/suite), and also in this category Summary: Whole app lifecycle: hosting, billing, CRM, email, ASO. Price: $69 / $169 per app per month Watch for: Moving to it means moving your app's hosting, not only your data. A wide product scope from a new team that also runs a Shopify agency. It was in closed early access until October 2026 and now offers a 14-day trial. ## Related categories - App Store ASO (6 tools in both): https://watchfor.tools/categories/aso - Ecosystem suites (2 tools in both): https://watchfor.tools/categories/suite - Partner & affiliate (2 tools in both): https://watchfor.tools/categories/partner - App Store data (also in the directory): https://watchfor.tools/categories/data
