RevenueHog vs Appfigures

Q: Is RevenueHog an Appfigures alternative?

For watching your own apps' revenue (MRR, live events, churn, alerts), yes, free with no SDK. For ASO, keyword tracking, competitor intelligence and review workflows, no: RevenueHog doesn't do any of that, and that's Appfigures' home turf.

Q: Can I use RevenueHog and Appfigures together?

Yes. They do different jobs: Appfigures for the market view (rankings, competitors, reviews), RevenueHog for the live money view (events, MRR, alerts). Nothing conflicts.

One watches the market, the other watches your money. Appfigures is app-store intelligence: ASO, competitors, reviews. RevenueHog is live revenue telemetry for your own apps. An honest feature table, and when each (or both) makes sense.

tl;dr

Doing ASO and market research (keywords, competitor estimates, review workflows, multiple stores)? Use Appfigures. Watching your own App Store revenue live (per-event feed, MRR, churn, push alerts), free and without an SDK? Use RevenueHog. They solve different problems; plenty of teams run both.

What each product is

Appfigures is app-store intelligence: keyword and rank tracking, ASO tooling, competitor download/revenue estimates, review monitoring and replies, plus reporting on your own apps across Apple, Google Play, Amazon and more. Pricing is tiered by capability and app count: Connect at $9.99/mo up to Amplify at $1,399.99/mo, with 5 apps included and $1.99/app beyond, and a 20% annual discount (as of 2026-07-11, appfigures.com/platform/pricing).

RevenueHogis revenue telemetry for App Store developers: connect an App Store Connect .p8 key and every app on the key imports with about a year of daily history (Apple's daily-report limit); Apple's Server Notifications V2 stream into a live feed with MRR, churn, trials and customer LTV on top, and get forwarded, verbatim, to any endpoints you configure. No SDK. Everything on the web is free; the only paid thing is the iOS push-alerts subscription ($4.99/mo or $39.99/yr). Never a percentage of your revenue.

When Appfigures is the better choice

Pick Appfigures over RevenueHog when:

▸You're doing ASO.Keyword research, rank tracking and metadata optimization are Appfigures' home turf; RevenueHog has none of it, on purpose.
▸You need competitor and market intelligence: download/revenue estimates for apps that aren't yours. RevenueHog only ever sees your own apps, by design.
▸You ship on Google Play or Amazon and want one tool covering every store. RevenueHog is Apple-only today.
▸Review workflows matter to you: monitoring, translating and replying to reviews at scale.

When RevenueHog fits

▸You want to know the second you get paid. Apple's Server Notifications become a live feed: every purchase, renewal, trial and churn event as it happens, not on the next report sync.
▸You want MRR without paying for it or integrating anything: one .p8 key, every app on it imports, about a year of history appears, and the methodology is public.
▸You need the events in your own systems. RevenueHog forwards Apple's verbatim signed payloads to your endpoints, so downstream verification keeps working.
▸You want it on your phone: push alerts with $ thresholds, quiet hours and MRR milestones, plus widgets.

Use both

Not a diplomatic dodge: the products barely overlap. Appfigures answers "how is my app doing in the market?"; RevenueHog answers "what is my revenue doing right now?". A team doing serious ASO work with Appfigures loses nothing by adding RevenueHog for the live money view, because the free web product doesn't add a line item.

FAQ

Is RevenueHog an Appfigures alternative?

For watching your own apps' revenue(MRR, live events, churn, alerts), yes, and that part is free with no SDK. For ASO, keyword tracking, competitor intelligence and review workflows, no: RevenueHog doesn't do any of that, and that's Appfigures' home turf. They overlap far less than their category pages suggest.

Can I use RevenueHog and Appfigures together?

Yes, and it's a sensible pairing because they do different jobs: Appfigures for the market view (rankings, competitors, reviews), RevenueHog for the live money view (events as they happen, MRR, alerts). Nothing conflicts. RevenueHog reads your App Store Connect key and Apple's notifications; Appfigures keeps its own syncs.

What does each one cost?

Everything RevenueHog does on the web is free; the only paid thing is the iOS alerts subscription ($4.99/mo or $39.99/yr). Never a percentage of your revenue. Appfigures runs from Connect at $9.99/mo to Amplify at $1,399.99/mo, with 5 apps included and $1.99/app beyond, 20% off annually (as of 2026-07-11, appfigures.com).

Does either require an SDK?

No SDK on either side. RevenueHog works from an App Store Connect API key plus (optionally) Apple's Server Notifications; optional SDKs exist only to add user-level attribution. Appfigures likewise connects to your store accounts server-side.

Does RevenueHog track Google Play?

No. RevenueHog is Apple / App Store only today. If you need Google Play or Amazon coverage in one tool, that's reason enough to pick Appfigures (or run both, per above).
