Emerge Tools provides a suite of mobile tooling to optimize and monitor mobile app size, UI quality, and performance. They offer open source and commercial plans used by notable mobile teams to analyze size, automate snapshots, distribute builds, and detect dead code and regressions.

The product suite includes: Size Analysis to measure and track app size across builds and pull requests with dashboards and competitor benchmarks; Snapshots to auto-generate UI previews and detect visual regressions with PR integration; Build Distribution to share builds with teams via QR/direct links and CI/CD integration; Reaper (open-source) to identify and remove dead code; Launch Booster to speed up app startup using release-time order files; Performance Analysis (deprecated) for monitoring startup and performance; API access for raw data and comparisons; and Slack alerts with customizable notifications. The platform integrates with SwiftUI, Jetpack Compose, Gradle, Fastlane, and supports cross-platform iOS/Android workflows, with open-source tooling and an emphasis on automated, production-use insights.

Who it’s for: Mobile development teams and organizations building consumer or business apps that need to optimize app size, performance, UI quality, and deployment efficiency.
