Could you build this?
Partial The dashboard and notification layer are trivial, but App Store Connect / Apple API data is notoriously delayed, complex to poll, and requires reverse-engineering private endpoints or App Store Server Notifications to achieve true 'real-time' download and revenue alerts.
What it would actually take: Requires an ingestion engine connecting to Apple's App Store Connect API (Analytics, Reports, and Server Notifications v2) and Google Play Developer API. The hard part is reconciling disparate, delayed financial reports with webhook-based subscription lifecycle events into a real-time stream with accurate currency conversion and refund handling.
