Inputs

Field	Type	Req	Default	Description
`apps`	array	yes	`["Notion"]`	Apps to analyze — an app name (e.g. 'Notion'), an App Store / Google Play URL, an Apple numeric id, or a Google Play package (com.x.y). One competitive teardown per app. Provide several to teardown competitors side by side.
`maxReviews`	integer	no	`100`	Reviews sampled per app (most-recent first) and fed to the AI. Caps cost; more reviews = richer teardown.
`country`	string	no	`"us"`	Two-letter store country code for reviews (e.g. 'us', 'gb', 'de').
`compareApps`	boolean	no	`true`	When 2+ apps are given (default on), add a cross-app comparison record — a strengths/weaknesses matrix plus sales battlecards (their weaknesses, where you win, what to watch out for).
`yourApp`	string	no	—	Optional. Name one of the apps as yours, and battlecards are framed as YOUR app vs each competitor. Leave empty for a neutral comparison.
`compareToPrevious`	boolean	no	`true`	When on (default), diff each app against the previous run and report what changed — rating delta, emerging vs resolved complaints, sentiment delta. Run on a schedule to track competitors over time.
`proxyConfiguration`	object	no	`{"useApifyProxy":false}`	Optional. The app-store endpoints are reachable directly; a proxy is rarely needed.

Pricing
