Could you build this?

Partial Building the dashboard, alerts, and badges is straightforward, but maintaining continuous scrapers and ingesting the full catalog and rankings of both Apple App Store and Google Play requires dedicated scraping infrastructure to avoid aggressive IP rate-limiting and anti-bot blocks.

What it would actually take: A viable build requires a distributed scraping cluster using rotating residential proxies and queue orchestration (e.g., Celery or Temporal) to crawl millions of store endpoints daily without being throttled. The data ingestion pipeline must handle high-throughput upserts into ClickHouse or PostgreSQL to track chart deltas and removals over time. The main challenges are sustaining anti-bot bypasses and scraping bandwidth costs rather than core product logic.
