The caveats
AppstorePulse. 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.
Rankbase. Craftshift publishes Shopify apps of its own: Bulk Product Image Upload and Export, Variant Images and Swatches, and Combined Listings. Rankbase started as the internal tracker for them. That is a fair origin. It is also a conflict if you compete in product images or variants. Your keyword strategy would be visible to somebody who sells apps of the same kind. The site's evidence is testimonials, not numbers. The one it leads with, an app going from 13th to 1st, is a single keyword on a single app. It is a rank tracker with an attribution layer, not a revenue tool: nothing here reads your Partner billing.
