How To Read This Page
Every day, scanners monitor 9 countries across three layers:
📡 Google Trends RSS — detects what's surging in Japan, Korea, India, Germany, Brazil, Mexico, Israel, Thailand, and Sweden before it reaches North America.
🛒 Commerce Scrapers — pulls bestsellers from Amazon JP · DE · IN (beauty, food, kitchen, electronics, health), Rakuten, Cosme (Japan's #1 beauty platform), Cookpad (food trends), and App Store charts across 7 countries.
🚀 Product Hunt — catches global tech product launches early.
Each trend then gets tested against 12 months of US Google Trends data. The system splits the timeline in half and compares the recent 6 months against the prior 6 months.
The NA Search Growth (6mo) number is everything — +30% or higher means Americans are starting to search for it. That's the beginning of the S-curve. Below 3 search interest = too early. Above 40 = already mainstream. The sweet spot is 3–40 interest with 30%+ growth — that's your window.
🔥 Crossing Now = confirmed NA growth detected — act on these
🔭 Checked = tested against US data but flat — no movement yet
⏳ Queued = waiting for inflection check (5 per day, highest priority first)
