How Trends Are Ranked & Discovered
Every trend you see below is automatically scored and staged by our pipeline. Here's exactly how it works.
How We Score
Each term gets a 0–100 score from four weighted dimensions:
• Channel diversity (highest weight)
• Signal strength across independent platforms
• Community engagement velocity
• Cross-platform propagation
Maturity stages — based on age since first detection:
Report thresholds: Top tier deep research report · Mid range quick brief · Lower range monitoring only
How Terms Are Discovered
Every night, our LLM pipeline scans signals from 30+ platforms and extracts emerging terms using 5 rules:
- Cross-platform validation — a term must appear in ≥2 independent platforms, not a single isolated post.
- Representative filtering — new products are only kept if they represent a broader emerging pattern, not one-off launches.
- Discussion volume threshold— low-score single posts don't qualify; there must be genuine community interest.
- Generic term blacklist — known broad terms (AI, React, Python, API, LLM, GPT) are automatically ignored.
- Quality over quantity — only terms with genuine cross-source validation are accepted. No numeric cap.
Sources: HN, Reddit, GitHub, Product Hunt, X, DEV Community, V2EX, Lobsters, and more.
Two Engines, One Report
Every night, our dual-engine system scans the internet. Every morning, you get one decision — validated, priced, and ready to execute.
Discovery Engine
AI scans 30+ platforms — HN, Reddit, GitHub, Product Hunt, X, DEV, V2EX, and more — for emerging pain points, rising trends, and market gaps. Every term is cross-validated across independent sources before it reaches your dashboard.
- Cross-platform signal validation
- Pain point vs. hype detection
- Actionability scoring
Monitoring Engine
Follow up to 10 topics, people, or tech stacks. Every day, the AI tells you what's happening, and — most importantly — what you should do about it. Track competitors, spot shifts in developer sentiment, and catch opportunities before they hit the mainstream.
- Topic trend analysis
- Pricing & feature change signals
- Actionable alerts, not noise
