The caveats
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.
SAMI. Rankings exist only for keywords in its curated database. A long-tail term it does not carry will not show up. The site does not say how terms are chosen or added. There is no changelog, blog or named team on the site, so what has shipped is hard to check from outside.
