About Appfigures
Appfigures just made its app-market data something an AI agent can query, not something you screenshot.
Appfigures has spent the last year widening what its estimates cover — iPad data folded into every download and revenue figure, state-level financials in the API, a 15-report App Intelligence suite for competitor research, and Leaderboards that rank apps by explicit metrics instead of opaque store charts. The August release changes who consumes all of that: a CLI built specifically for AI agents, with a hinting system to keep them from misreading the data. The product is no longer only a dashboard.
