Today's trending searches, as rows
The Google Trending Now API returns the searches trending in a country right now: about 298 per call in our test, each with search volume, growth, start time and whether it's still trending. You don't send a keyword, only a country. One call costs €0.0015, which works out to about half a thousandth of a cent per trend. Every other source is on our all data APIs and prices page. Set your country once, and every run's trending list is saved in your Scrapewise account for the table, Excel, your AI assistant or the API.
We pulled the US list for the past 24 hours on 16 September 2026. "dancing with the stars" led with 500,000 searches, up 1,000%, and carried 85 related searches of its own. 57 of the 298 trends were still active. The other 241 had already ended, and each ended one has an end time.
One row from that list is a good example for sellers: "pokemon 30th anniversary" at 10,000 searches, with related searches like "target pokemon drop" and "target pokemon cards". If you resell collectibles, that's a heads-up about a product drop, from one call.
Every other Trends API on our site starts with a keyword you already have in mind. This one tells you what to think about. When a trend catches your eye, run it through the Google Trends API to see its history and where it's hot.
Who watches what's trending
YouTube and TikTok creators
Same-day videos on a rising trend get found by the people searching for it. Pull the list every few hours and act on the ones in your niche.
Deal and news pages
Facebook deal groups and small news sites live on timing. A trend with no end time is still being searched, so a post about it can still catch readers.
Resellers and online shops
Product launches, restocks and store drops show up as trends. Watch for brand and product names and move before the listings flood in.
How it works
Pick a country
Enter a two-letter code, such as US, GB or DE. The default window is the past 24 hours. Change the hours setting for a shorter or longer look back.
Schedule it daily
Each run saves the full list with its date, so you see which trends are new since yesterday.
Filter the list
Sort by search volume in the table or Excel, pull rows by API, or ask your AI assistant: 'which trends in the shopping category started today?'
Set it up once. The data keeps coming.
Save your search once and it runs by itself. Every run lands in your own Scrapewise database, and you pick how to read it.
Set it up once
Add your ASINs, keywords, places or apps to a scraper in the web app. New accounts get 5 free requests.
Runs on your schedule
Pick daily, weekly on the days you choose, every few days, or the first or last day of the month. Scheduled runs start at night, European time. Need it more often? Start runs from your own code.
Saved in your database
Each run adds dated rows, so this week sits next to last week. Rows are kept for 90 days.
Use it your way
Open the table in the web app and download the latest run as an Excel file. Ask your own AI assistant about it. Or pull the rows into your code with an API key.
Ask your AI assistant about your own data
Connect Claude Desktop, Claude Code or another MCP app with a read-only key. The assistant reads the rows you've already collected, at no extra cost on Scrapewise. With a full-access key it can start a run for you too.
- Which of my ASINs lost the Buy Box this week?
- Which competitor cut prices the most since Monday?
- Show the keywords where I dropped out of the top 10.
What you send and what you get back
You send a country code, and if you like a time window in hours. You get one row per trend, about 298 for the US over 24 hours, with its title, search volume, growth, start and end time, status, categories and related searches.
