Trend scores on a 0–100 index for consistent cross-platform comparison. See today's live boards.
Two types of sources are available, accessed via different operations. Keyword sources return a historical time series or growth metric for a specific keyword. Live feeds return the top-ranked items on a platform right now. No keyword needed.
Pass the source value below in your request body alongside keyword. On REST, set mode to "get_time_series" (time series) or "get_growth" (period-over-period %). For Get Growth, pass one source or a comma-separated list (e.g. amazon, tiktok, youtube). For Get Trends, pass one source per request. Scores are normalized to a 0–100 scale where the pipeline supports it.
