Easy App Reports by Beyond Analytics
A technical user can build a useful subset (connectors, ETL, exports, basic UI) without the vendor, but reproducing the full hosted experience (EU ISO27001 hosting, one-click templates, MCP integrations, onboarding/support) is substantial and would take multi-week effort.

Nothing published replaces this one, so a replacement starts from an empty file. Here is what it would have to cover.
What a replacement has to do
- Periodically pull metrics from App Store Connect and Google Play Developer APIs, normalize and store them, expose them to a BI destination (Looker Studio via connector or BigQuery), and provide templated dashboards and simple UI for connecting developer accounts.
What it still won’t have
- Hosted in the EU on ISO 27001 certified servers (the site: "Hosted in the EU" and "Stored on an ISO 27001 certified server in Germany (EU).")
- Built-in GDPR & CCPA compliance statements and related controls (the site: "GDPR & CCPA compliant")
- One-click "Magic Templates" and included Looker Studio Templates (the site: "Looker Studio Templates included" and "Magic Templates")
- MCP integration to talk to data with supported AI assistants (the site: "Our MCP integration is available on all our base plans.")
- Proactive support, onboarding services, and SLA-style support channels (the pricing page: "Support via Chat & Email" and add-on onboarding/consulting services)
What remains hard
- Product polish and ongoing maintenance

Runnable build prompt
Build a minimal self-hosted app-reporting service using Node.js (Express) + PostgreSQL (or BigQuery integration) + Docker. Core features: 1) OAuth/credential onboarding flows for App Store Connect and Google Play Developer APIs, 2) scheduled ETL workers to pull daily/app-specific metrics and normalize into a unified schema, 3) write sync results to Postgres and optionally to a customer BigQuery dataset, 4) expose a simple REST endpoint usable by Looker Studio or a basic connector, 5) a lightweight web UI to add developer accounts, view sync status, and instantiate dashboard templates. Out of scope: multi-tenant billing, advanced UI theming, paid media integrations, ISO27001 certification, and hosted EU infrastructure. Include error handling, retry/backoff for API calls, logging, health checks, Docker compose for local dev, and automated tests for ETL normalization and auth flows.

The base comes from the verdict. Everything under it is a check that either happened or did not, and each one is a fact frozen in this record rather than a judgement made at render time - so the same evidence always produces the same number.
