#2Hey everyone, my name is Mike and I'm the developer.
On Treendly, you can search a topic or keyword in any region and immediately get an understanding of its trend.
You can also set up alerts so that you can monitor a keyword/topic and be alerted when it begins trending.
Treendly also curates trends. Getting in early on a trend is key these days and within a few minutes, you can find a topic that is worth exploring.
Under the hood, I also try to predict how a trend will perform in the near future by using Facebook Prophet and other similar technologies. Right now we are predicting using the last 5 years of data on any topic.
Hope you like it!

#3So this is a bit like https://explodingtopics.com but with a different angle to find the categories and trends? I see no "world/global" option, is that on purpose?
I do like how the data is presented in the details page. In exploding topics you have to leave the site to see the same on gtrends.

Hello there,
Yes, we both find rising trends but we differ in so many ways.
First and foremost, we give our users the ability to monitor a keyword/topic over time. As a user, you can receive daily, weekly and monthly email alerts.
Secondly, you can search a keyword/topic in any country and what you search stays private to you so that you can build your own private library of trends.
Thirdly, each trend has so many related topics that we find by querying Google, Amazon, YouTube, etc that you can dive into.
And finally, we have a beta feature where the tool forecasts how a trend will likely perform in the next 6 months.

Exploding Topics has a one huge advantage. They don't require account to search and test. Maybe leave basic features for everyone to use without account?

Thanks for explaining. So Exploding topics as a Service and with additional features to make it a business. Can be interesting depending on how accurate your trend spotting are and how well the prediction beta feature works. Keeping track of new technology trends and competitors offerings is a healthy amount of work in any business. If a service could already take out the initial search part that could be value.

#7Really cool - I'm interested in this. Despite similar services - I like your opportunity indicator. Love the search functionality idea - but hit a bug so it took a couple of tries to get it to search.
This has potential and I hope you keep working on it. I would consider paying for it down the road if it's more mature. Also hit the free limits very quickly.

#8Whose is your target customer? Ie what are their job titles and what are their jobs? How would your tool fit into their workflow?

#9Tried adding a monitor for a trend with two words, got lots of matches for just one of the words that is generic. Tried then again but putting the two words in quotes, expecting it'll match the entire query instead of each one of them individually, but then encountered bug that quotes turn into %22 and trend report has no data.
Otherwise, looks like a useful service! Thanks for sharing

Hey [name redacted],
Thanks for the feedback. We have no limits on all tiers regarding searches: you can search all the keywords/topic you want, for free.
The only limit we have on the free plan is the fact that you can track only 1 trend, meaning that you can receive alerts only for one trend.
The other limit we have on the free plan is regarding curated trends, because these are trends that we personally curate and are rising and I feel like $9/m is not a lot of money to get access to those opportunities.
Are you referring to any of these limits in particular?
