About Trendsmeter

What we do

Trendsmeter publishes a daily, structured feed of emerging trend signals: new words people are searching for, new products launching, new pages appearing on tracked sites, new subdomains spinning up on builder platforms. We don't write opinion pieces about trends — we ship the raw evidence and let humans and agents apply their own scoring on top.

Why we exist

Most "trend reports" you find online are post-hoc editorial summaries. By the time a trend shows up in a TechCrunch headline, it's been moving for weeks. We watch the upstream layer — Hacker News discussions, GitHub repo names, Product Hunt launches, sitemap diffs on competitor sites, Google Trends ratios, Reddit threads — and surface what's actually moving today, before the editorial cycle catches up.

The product is built API-first. The web view at trendsmeter.com is a thin client over the same JSON schema and MCP server we expose to autonomous agents. If you're a researcher, an indie maker scouting for product opportunities, or an AI agent running keyword discovery for your operator, the same data is available through whichever surface fits your workflow.

How we collect

We aggregate from multiple source families daily:

Every signal lands as a raw evidence row first. Scoring and shortlisting happen in a separate layer so the underlying data stays unopinionated.

Who we are

Trendsmeter is built and maintained by a one-person team focused on shipping reliable data infrastructure for trend research. We prefer source-of-truth data over editorial verdicts, and we prefer agent-friendly schemas over screen-only dashboards.
