Viral trend detection for AI agents

The best time to act on a trend is before it peaks. Trends MCP gives your AI early-warning signals from TikTok, Reddit, and Wikipedia - platforms where trends emerge before they hit Google Search - so you can spot and act on what is going viral 2-4 weeks ahead of mainstream.

get_trends

Pull daily TikTok and Reddit data to detect early-stage viral spikes within days of their start - daily mode (last 30 days) has much higher resolution than the standard weekly view.

get_trends(keyword='new viral topic', source='tiktok', data_mode='daily')

get_growth

Measure 1-month vs 3-month growth across TikTok, Google, and Reddit: a topic with explosive 1-month growth but flat 3-month growth is in an active viral cycle, not a structural trend.

get_growth(keyword='new viral topic', source='tiktok, google search, reddit', percent_growth=['1M', '3M'])

get_ranked_trends

Surface the fastest-growing topics on TikTok this week sorted by week-over-week change - the highest-ranked items are in the earliest, most actionable stage of virality.

get_ranked_trends(source='tiktok', sort='wow_pct_change', limit=25)

get_top_trends

See what is going viral right now on TikTok and across all platforms simultaneously - the fastest zero-keyword way to spot a trend in real time.

get_top_trends(type='TikTok Trending Hashtags', limit=30)

Common questions

TikTok (viral spikes appear 2-4 weeks before Google Search), Reddit (enthusiast and early-adopter discussion precedes mainstream awareness), Wikipedia (information-seeking spikes 24-72 hours before Google Search surges), and News Volume (media attention often precedes broader public discovery). Trends MCP covers all four in one query.
Use get_top_trends(source='tiktok') or get_top_trends(source='google search') to surface what is rising right now across a platform. No keyword needed - the API returns the current top trending topics and their growth rates.
Yes. Query a keyword across TikTok, Reddit, YouTube, and Google Search and compare the growth curves. A trend growing fast on TikTok but still low on Google Search is early-stage. A trend peaking on Google Search but declining on TikTok is late-stage.
TikTok typically leads Google Search by 2-4 weeks. Reddit and Wikipedia can lead by 1-3 days for news-driven topics. The combination gives you a multi-layer early warning system across different trend cycle speeds.
