List the Google Play apps that compete with one Android app for the same search keywords, from its package name in app_id. Rows show shared keywords, average position on them, shared top-10 keywords and shared search volume, next to each competitor's own keyword totals. US store only, with package IDs rather than app names. 20 competitors by default, up to 100.

Price $11.51 per 1,000 requests ($0.01151 per call). Failed calls and empty results are not charged. Synchronous. For slow jobs add "mode": "async" to the body, take the job_id and poll.

AI prompt

Please help me write a data collection script with the EveryInfra Google Play Competitors endpoint (google_play/competitors).

How the endpoint works:
- Request: POST https://api.everyinfra.com/api/v1/social with the header Authorization: Bearer <API key>. Read the key from the EVERYINFRA_API_KEY environment variable and never hard-code it.
- In the request body, set platform to google_play and action to competitors, and put the parameters inside params.
- Required parameters:
  - app_id: The Android package name of the app whose competitors you want, such as com.spotify.music, or its play.google.com link with ?id=.
- Optional parameters:
  - country: Storefront for competitors. Only the US store is covered: leave it out or pass us; any other country is rejected before the call runs.
  - limit: The most rows to return in this call, an integer from 1 to 100. The default applies when you leave it out, and a call can return fewer rows. Larger values are accepted and capped at the maximum. (default: 20)
- Returns a list of records. Main fields of each record: app_id, shared_keywords, avg_position, shared_top10_keywords, shared_search_volume, keyword_count, top10_keywords, target_app_id.
- Example request body:
{
  "platform": "google_play",
  "action": "competitors",
  "params": {
    "app_id": "com.whatsapp"
  }
}
- Price: $11.51 per 1,000 requests; failed and empty results are not charged.
- For dozens or hundreds of targets, add "mode": "async" to the body: you get a job_id at once and poll GET https://api.everyinfra.com/api/v1/jobs/{job_id} for the result.
- On 422, fix the request using the suggested parameter names and allowed values in the error; on 429 or 503, wait for Retry-After and try again.

Before writing code, ask me which targets I need, how many, which fields, and what output format I want; then confirm the plan and the rough cost with me.
