NicheMaps

NicheMaps is a catalog of mobile app niches with proof of demand. Instead of guessing what to build, you browse over 5 million iOS and Android apps and filter down to ones that pass every signal at once: ads running right now, in-app purchases, and install/rating velocity. For each app you can open the live Google Ads Transparency and Meta Ad Library creatives — formats, run dates, and advertiser variants — so you study what already works before you ship. Browsing and searching the catalog is free. Premium unlocks ad-status filters, live creatives, and working-niche discovery tools.

NicheMaps helps users discover profitable app niches by providing real-time access to Google and Meta ads. It shows which niches are currently acquiring users, thereby validating concepts before development. By offering detailed insights into ad performance and market demand, it aids in making informed decisions for app development. Users access NicheMaps to explore live ad data from Google and Meta for existing apps. They can filter apps by performance metrics such as installs and ad spending. The platform also sends daily emails highlighting one app that is actively running ads, which users can analyze further for insights into effective advertising strategies. NicheMaps is designed for indie app developers and marketers seeking to validate app niches before investing in development. It provides actionable insights based on real ad spending and growth trends, making it easier for users to focus on areas of proven demand and successful monetization.
