TRENDS API

 Hey Chetan Bhai : Do you have any API similar to Google Trends API ? Do you know any other ?

ChatGPT said:

Chetan Bhai, I don’t have a native “Google Trends”-type API of my own, but I can absolutely work with third-party ones that give you similar functionality.

Here’s the quick landscape:

---

1. Google Trends API (Unofficial)

• Official Google Trends API does not exist — Google never released one.
• But there are unofficial Python libraries like pytrends that act as a wrapper around Google Trends.
• They can fetch:
• Interest over time
• Interest by region
• Related queries & topics
• Trending searches
• Limitations: Google may block if you request too frequently.

2. Alternative APIs for Trend & Popularity Data

API / Platform	Key Features	Notes
GDELT Project API	Global news mentions, trends, and sentiment analysis	Free, updated every 15 min
SerpApi (Google Search Trends)	Paid API that scrapes Google Trends, news, and search results	Reliable but costs money
Talkwalker API	Social media and news trends tracking	Paid, more for enterprise
Reddit API	Trending posts & keywords in real time	Great for niche audience tracking
Twitter/X API	Hashtag & keyword trends	Paid tiers now, but powerful
Ahrefs / SEMrush / SimilarWeb APIs	Search keywords & trend data	Paid, SEO-focused

3. AI-Driven Trend Prediction

I can also build you a custom “trend radar” by:

• Pulling raw search, news, and social data via these APIs
• Cleaning & merging the results
• Using AI to predict emerging topics before they peak

If you want, I can prepare a ready-to-use Python script with pytrends + one backup data source, so you can run your own “Google Trends-like” dashboard without depending entirely on Google’s whims.

Do you want me to go ahead and make that script for you so you can run it today?
