# Research Category Keywords

Every app category has a universe of search terms that users type when looking for apps like yours. Some are obvious and highly competitive. Others are niche, less competitive, and surprisingly high-volume. Category keyword research maps out this landscape so you can make informed decisions about which terms to target.

The analyze_keywords skill scans the keyword landscape within your category, surfacing terms you may not have considered. It evaluates each keyword by search volume, competition level, and relevance to your app, giving you a prioritized list of opportunities. The most valuable finds are often long-tail keywords that your competitors overlook -- terms like "meal prep planner for families" instead of just "meal planner" -- where you can realistically reach the top positions and capture motivated users.
