Sensor Tower pricing, and the cheaper alternatives

Sensor Tower does not publish a price, which is why you are reading this instead of their pricing page. We build a much smaller tool in the same neighbourhood, so treat the recommendations accordingly — but the numbers below are public, sourced and dated.

What it actually costs

No public list price. Annual contracts through sales; reported deals commonly $30k–$150k/year, median around $74k. API access is typically a separate fee.

  • There is no self-serve tier. Every plan starts with a sales call and lands on an annual contract, so there is no way to try it for a month and stop.
  • The price is driven by modules, not seats alone. Store Intelligence, Advertising Intelligence and Usage Intelligence are separately priced, and geographic coverage moves the number again.
  • API access is usually extra, priced against rate limits and volume rather than bundled with a seat.

Figures from Vendr marketplace listing (38 tracked transactions), checked 2026-08-22. Negotiated contracts vary; treat the range as a range.

When Sensor Tower is the right call

Depth and breadth nothing else here approaches: advertising intelligence, usage panels, market-level estimates, and the data licensing that analysts and investors actually need. It also absorbed data.ai, so it is now the default for that whole category.

If you are sizing a market for an investment committee, planning ad spend against competitors' creative, or need defensible numbers with a licence attached, the cheaper tools on this page are not substitutes and you should stop comparing them. The five-figure price is buying data collection nobody replicates on a hobby budget.

Pick by the job, not by the logo

Appfigures

The best price-to-depth ratio for ASO work on your own app: keyword ranks, store performance and competitor tracking, starting free and scaling in real steps rather than one enterprise jump.

Where it falls short: Built around apps you operate. It is not a place to browse screenshot craft, and the keyword allowances are what actually gate the lower tiers.

AppFollow

Review and reply workflow at scale, with integrations into support stacks. If your problem is answering thousands of store reviews across markets, this is the one built for it.

Where it falls short: Prices are not public, which makes it hard to compare before a sales call.

RevShot

The only one of these that puts the screenshots and the money on the same page: what an app ships, what it grosses, where that ranks in its category, and revenue per install. That is the question "is this design worth copying" actually asks.

Where it falls short: Mobile App Store only — no web UI, no Android, no user-flow recordings. The catalog is top-grossing apps, so it is not a place to research a niche nobody charts in. Revenue figures are estimates, not filings.

Mobbin

The pattern taxonomy is the best in this list, and nothing else here indexes complete user flows and web apps as well. If you want to see how forty apps handle onboarding side by side, this is the tool.

Where it falls short: It answers "how does this look", never "did it work". There is no revenue or download context on a screen, and pricing is per seat.

The honest summary

Most people who search "Sensor Tower pricing" are not enterprise buyers — they are trying to find out whether they can afford it before booking a call. Usually the answer is no, and usually they only needed one of its modules. Work out which one, then buy that.
