Manual App Review Mining Is Too Slow for Competitive Research

Founders and indie developers who rely on competitor app store reviews to identify market gaps face a time-intensive manual research process that limits how many competitors they can analyze. The underlying problem — extracting structured, actionable signals from large volumes of unstructured review text — doesn't scale without tooling. This constrains the quality of pre-build market validation, often leading to missed opportunities or poorly scoped products.
