PeekPanda is competitor research for iOS apps, built around one simple idea: open any app and see what it's actually doing to get downloads. That means the Meta ads it's currently paying for and how long each one has run, the US App Store searches it ranks for, and the viral posts people are making about it. Every number comes with an observation date attached, so you know exactly when that data was pulled rather than guessing how stale it is. You can use it straight in the browser, or plug it into an AI agent over MCP if that's how your research workflow already runs.
