The problem it solves

You want to know what's trending before your team starts the day, but checking multiple platforms and pulling out the real signal from the noise takes real time. Without a routine, trend spotting becomes reactive instead of proactive.

Who it fits

A content creator, marketer, or product team that needs a daily trend snapshot.

How it works

  1. Starts on a schedule or manual trigger
  2. Pulls hot posts from Reddit and trending topics from Twitter
  3. AI reviews everything and picks the top five trends
  4. Formats the trends into a spreadsheet
  5. Uploads the file to SharePoint or Google Drive
What you get

Trending topics spotted before you go looking

Every morning you get a spreadsheet of the top five trending topics from Reddit and Twitter, ready to guide your content.

What you get

A spreadsheet of the day's top trending topics, saved to your cloud storage.

What you need

A Reddit developer account, an OpenAI API key, and a SharePoint or Google Drive account.

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.
