Exploding Topics

Catching a trend before it explodes can make the difference between leading a market and chasing it. Exploding Topics analyzes millions of searches and conversations to identify rapidly growing topics months or years before they become mainstream.

Exploding Topics is a trend detection tool. Its purpose is to flag topics, products and companies that are rapidly growing in popularity, before they become common knowledge. To do this, the platform analyzes large amounts of data from online searches, social media, forums and other sources, and applies algorithms that identify growth signals: a term that goes from few searches to a rapidly rising volume is a potential emerging trend. The results are organized in a database browsable by category (technology, health, ecommerce, finance, beauty and many others), where each trend is accompanied by a chart showing its evolution over time and a classification of its growth stage (rising, exploding, declining). Tools to filter trends by channel, volume and growth speed are available, along with periodic reports and analysis of which trends are about to take off. It's a tool designed for those who must make strategic decisions by anticipating market movements: product development, investments, content and marketing.

For entrepreneurs, marketers, investors and content creators who want to spot emerging trends and market opportunities before competitors.

Exploding Topics offers a free version that lets you explore a limited selection of already-validated trends, with data that isn't fully up to date. The Pro subscription, starting at around $39 per month (billed annually), unlocks full access to the trends database, real-time data, advanced filters, trends spotted before they explode and reports. Higher plans for professional needs and teams are available, with more features and historical data. Prices may vary due to promotions.
