Floyd/For/non-technical founders
For non-technical founders

ASO without the agency.
Without the spreadsheet.

You're a founder, not an ASO consultant. Your developer handed you the App Store listing and now you own it. Floyd grades it in 30 seconds, drafts the fix, and explains every change in plain English. No agency call required.

No credit card. No agency call. 30-second audit.

Why ASO feels impossible as a founder.

You've talked to two agencies, watched four YouTube videos, and you're still not sure what to actually do. Here's why.

Every ASO agency wants $2,000+/month and a 6-month commitment.

Agencies are priced for funded startups, not pre-seed founders. The good ones won't even talk to you under $2k/mo MRR or a $10k upfront audit.

Every "ASO guide" is written for ASO professionals.

Read three guides and you'll be drowning in 'metadata localization', 'creative iteration cadence', and 'CTR uplift'. None of them tell you what to actually change in your listing tonight.

Your developer doesn't want to be your marketer.

They built the app. They don't want to redesign the screenshots, rewrite the copy, or argue with you about keyword positioning. ASO falls to you by default.

Your screenshot designer and your copywriter are two different freelancers.

And neither of them knows ASO. The screenshots look pretty but the message is weak. The copy reads well but ignores the keyword field. Coordination is the bottleneck.

You can't tell what's working because you can't read the ranking data.

App Store Connect's analytics are designed for ASO professionals. Conversion rates, keyword impressions, source breakdown — without context, the dashboard is noise.

What Floyd gives a non-technical founder.

You don't need to learn ASO. You need someone to tell you exactly what to change, and ideally to make the change for you.

01

Plain English audit.

No jargon. No acronyms. Each issue: what it is, why it hurts you, what to do instead. Severity-tagged so you know what's urgent vs. nice-to-have.

02

Drafted fixes you can approve.

Floyd doesn't just say 'rewrite your subtitle' — it drafts the new subtitle for you to approve, edit, or reject. Same for keywords, descriptions, and screenshots.

03

No designer or copywriter required.

Floyd generates the screenshots and writes the copy. You ship the result. Your existing freelance budget can go toward something else.

Founder ASO, before and after Floyd.

The non-technical founder workflow, replaced.

Before

Schedule three agency calls. Fly through pricing decks. Realize you can't afford any of them.

After

Run the free Floyd audit. Get the same diagnostic an agency would give you, in plain English, in 30 seconds.

Before

Hire a Fiverr designer for screenshots. Hire a copywriter for the description. Stitch the two together yourself.

After

Floyd generates the screenshots and the copy in one pass. They're designed to work together because Floyd wrote both.

Before

Read 'The Beginner's Guide to ASO' (Part 1 of 7). Take notes. Forget half by Tuesday.

After

Floyd tells you the five things that matter for your specific listing. Skip the encyclopedia.

Before

Email your developer with a list of changes for them to make in App Store Connect. Wait three days.

After

Floyd pushes approved changes to App Store Connect via API. Your developer never has to log in.

5 ASO concepts every founder should know.

You don't need to be an ASO expert. But these five things actually move the needle, and Floyd handles all of them.

  1. 1

    Title and subtitle are 80% of your keyword strategy.

    Apple indexes both heavily. The title is where your most-valuable keyword goes; the subtitle is where the second-most-valuable phrase goes. Everything else is decoration.

  2. 2

    Screenshot #1 makes the conversion decision.

    60%+ of users decide whether to download from the first screenshot alone. It needs a value-prop headline, not a UI screenshot.

  3. 3

    Reviews and ratings are a ranking signal, not just social proof.

    Apple ranks apps with more recent positive reviews higher. A review-prompt strategy in the app affects both conversion and discovery.

  4. 4

    Localization is the highest-ROI ASO move you can make.

    Localizing your listing into 3-5 additional languages typically lifts non-US downloads 50-200% with zero code changes. Floyd drafts the localized copy.

  5. 5

    You can A/B test screenshots in App Store Connect itself.

    Apple's Product Page Optimization tool lets you run real screenshot tests against live traffic — for free. Most founders don't know it exists.

Floyd handles all five automatically. Run your free audit to see what your listing scores today.

Founder FAQ.

I'm not technical. Is Floyd usable for me?

+
Yes — Floyd is designed for founders who don't code. Paste your App Store URL, get a plain-English audit, approve drafted fixes. The only technical step is connecting App Store Connect for one-click deploys, which takes 5 minutes following our setup guide.

How does Floyd compare to hiring an ASO agency?

+
Agencies typically charge $2,000-$5,000/month with a 6-month commitment. Floyd is $19/month with no commitment, runs the audit in 30 seconds, and ships fixes the same day. Agencies add value at scale (10+ apps, multiple markets, ad spend) — for one indie app, Floyd does the same job for 1% of the cost.

Can my developer use Floyd instead of me?

+
Either of you can. The audit is for whoever owns the App Store listing. Many teams have the founder run the audit and the developer push the changes — or vice versa.

Does Floyd write the description copy too?

+
Yes. The audit drafts a new title, subtitle, full description, and what's-new release notes — all editable. You don't need a separate copywriter.

What if I don't agree with Floyd's recommendations?

+
Reject them. Every drafted fix is a suggestion you can edit or skip. Floyd never auto-pushes anything you haven't approved.

No agency.
No spreadsheet. No call.

Free first audit. $19/month after that — cheaper than a single hour of an ASO consultant.
