ChromeNiche is a data-driven validation platform designed to help developers and entrepreneurs find "gaps" in the Chrome Web Store. By entering a simple keyword or idea, the tool scans the store to provide a "Market Verdict"—a color-coded assessment (Green, Yellow, or Red) of the competition. It provides deep insights into direct competitors, their user ratings, and activity signals, allowing you to stop guessing and start building tools that have a mathematical chance of success.

Key Features

• Instant Market Verdicts: Receive a quick assessment of any niche based on competitor density, install volume, and average user sentiment.

• Semantic Search Analysis: Finds both exact match competitors and related extensions that solve similar problems but use different keywords.

• Activity Signals: Track how recently competitors have updated their extensions to find neglected niches where a new player could easily win.

• Chrome Store Data Scraping: Accesses real-time, publicly available data from the Chrome Web Store to provide accurate market snapshots.

• Idea Validation History: Pro users can save and track their previous searches to compare different niche opportunities side-by-side.

Who This Is For

• Indie Developers: Builders looking for their next profitable side project who want to ensure there is a demand for their code before they start writing it.

• Product Managers: Professionals researching the competitive landscape for browser-based productivity or B2B tools.

• Serial Entrepreneurs: Founders who prioritize market research and data-backed validation over "gut feeling" when launching new software.
