The problem it solves

Keeping track of what's trending each day means checking the same page over and over and manually copying numbers into a spreadsheet. By the time you've compiled it, you've lost the time you meant to spend acting on it.

Who it fits

Teams tracking daily trends who want a consistent record without checking manually.

How it works

  1. Each morning, the system fetches the day's trending data
  2. Names, links, and install counts are extracted and cleaned up
  3. The data is archived to Google Sheets for historical tracking
  4. A formatted report is emailed out and a top-10 summary is posted to Slack
What you get

A daily trend report without manual tracking

Every morning you get a formatted report of the day's trending data by email, plus a quick top-ten summary posted straight to Slack.

What you get

A historical spreadsheet of daily trends, plus a daily email report and Slack summary.

What you need

A Google Workspace account and a Slack workspace.

We can build this. But should you?

The hard question is not how to build it. It is whether this is the right thing to build first.

That is what a Fractional Chief AI Officer figures out with you, before anyone writes a line of code.
