👁 Actor Input Configuration

🚀 Quick Start — 3 Steps, Under 60 Seconds

1. Click "Try for free" above (free Apify account required — takes 30 seconds to sign up)
2. Select your country → set number of trends → click Start
3. Download results as Excel, CSV, or JSON from the Dataset tab
4. (Recommended) Set up daily automation → — takes 30 seconds, runs every morning automatically

Default settings work out of the box. No API keys. No proxies. No configuration needed.

⏰ Set Up Once, Get Trends Every Morning

Most users run this Actor manually once — and then forget about it.

The real value is daily automation. Trending topics change every 24 hours. The creators who act first win the traffic. Manual runs mean you'll always be a day late.

Here's how power users set it up:

1. Go to the Schedules tab above
2. Set time: 8:00 AM your timezone
3. Done — fresh trends waiting for you every morning before your competition wakes up

Takes 30 seconds to set up. Saves 2+ hours of research every single day.

💡 Pro tip: Schedule two runs — one at 8 AM (morning trends) and one at 6 PM (evening trends). Google Trends updates throughout the day, so you catch both waves.

How This Google Trends Scraper Works

This is not just a scraper. It is a complete AI content pipeline that turns raw trend data into ready-to-use content:

• Step 1 — Scrape: Pulls live trending topics directly from Google Trends RSS for your selected country
• Step 2 — Enrich: Fetches related news from 200+ verified, spam-filtered sources via Google News RSS
• Step 3 — Generate: A built-in AI reads the actual news snippets and generates blog titles, social captions, and SEO keywords grounded in real events — not generic templates. No API key required from you; the AI is fully integrated into the Actor
• Step 4 — Export: Outputs structured JSON, CSV, Excel, or XML — ready to drop into your workflow

The AI only generates content after reading real news context. This is why the output is specific and relevant, not generic. Topics with no news coverage fall back to keyword-only generation and are clearly indicated in the output.

Output Field Reference

Trend Velocity & Urgency

Velocity Scale

Urgency Detection

The Actor uses two independent detection layers to score content urgency:

1. Keyword-level: Checks the trend keyword against 150+ real-time signal patterns (e.g. "vs", "live score", "breaking", "election results")
2. News-level: Scans related article titles for live event signals — catching cases where the keyword is generic but the news reveals an active event

If either layer detects a live event, urgency is set to 🔴 ASAP and posting time is set to "Post NOW". Evergreen topics are assigned 🟢 Low urgency with a longer content window.

Integrations

See Apify Integrations documentation for setup guides.

Using This Actor as a Google Trends API

No official Google Trends API exists. This Actor fills that gap — use Apify's REST API, Python SDK, or JavaScript SDK to pull trend data programmatically into any pipeline.

Python

from apify_client import ApifyClient
client = ApifyClient("YOUR_APIFY_TOKEN")
run = client.actor("vasram/daily-trend-intelligence").call(run_input={
"country":"IN",
"maxTrends":10,
"includeNews":True,
"includeContentIdeas":True,
"language":"en",
})
for item in client.dataset(run["defaultDatasetId"]).iterate_items():
 captions = item["content_ideas"]["social_captions"]
print(f"#{item['rank']}{item['keyword']} ({item['trend_velocity']})")
print(f" Twitter: {captions['twitter']}")
print(f" Blog idea: {item['content_ideas']['blog_titles'][0]}")

JavaScript

import{ ApifyClient }from'apify-client';
const client =newApifyClient({token:'YOUR_APIFY_TOKEN'});
const run =await client.actor('vasram/daily-trend-intelligence').call({
country:'US',
maxTrends:10,
includeNews:true,
includeContentIdeas:true,
language:'en',
});
const{ items }=await client.dataset(run.defaultDatasetId).listItems();
items.forEach(item=>{
const{ twitter, instagram, tiktok }= item.content_ideas.social_captions;
 console.log(`#${item.rank}${item.keyword}`);
 console.log(`Twitter: ${twitter}`);
});

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need any API keys to run this? No. The AI content generation is fully built into the Actor. You do not provide any AI API keys — everything runs internally. Just create a free Apify account and click Start.

How often should I run this Actor? Once or twice daily covers most use cases. Google Trends updates throughout the day, so morning and afternoon runs provide excellent coverage. Use Apify Scheduler to automate this.

Can I run this for multiple countries at once? Not in a single run — one country per run. You can automate multi-country monitoring using Apify Scheduler with separate input configurations per country.

Can I get historical Google Trends data? No. This Actor fetches only today's trending topics. Each run is a real-time snapshot. For historical data, use a dedicated Google Trends historical tool.

Is the AI-generated content ready to publish as-is? The AI generates strong, news-grounded starting points. We recommend using the output as a framework and adding your own voice and editorial judgment before publishing — especially for breaking news topics.

Does this work for non-English countries? Yes. Google Trends returns topics in the local language of the selected country. Set the language field to control which language news articles are fetched in. For example: country: IN + language: hi gives you Hindi news context for Indian trends.

Why does a run sometimes take longer than expected? Each trend requires a separate AI call to generate content ideas. With maxTrends: 20 and includeContentIdeas: true, expect 4–6 minutes. Set maxTrends: 10 or includeContentIdeas: false for faster runs.

What if my country returns no trends? Google Trends RSS availability varies by country and time of day. If a country returns empty results, try the US first to confirm the Actor is working, then retry your country. Persistent issues can be reported on the Issues tab.

How is this different from apify/google-trends-scraper? That Actor returns raw keyword data only. This Actor adds a full AI content pipeline on top: it finds the news context behind each trend, then generates blog titles, platform-specific social captions, and 10 SEO keywords per trend. It is a complete content research tool, not just a data scraper.

Data Freshness and Accuracy

All trending topics and search volumes are pulled from live Google Trends RSS feeds, updated continuously throughout the day. Related news is fetched from Google News RSS, filtered through a 4-step quality pipeline:

1. Spam detection — Rejects clickbait patterns, excessive punctuation, and scam text
2. Freshness check — Only articles published within the last 14 days
3. Encoding check — Rejects garbled or non-readable titles
4. Source scoring — 200+ global sources ranked by authority (High → Medium → Unverified)

Note: Search volumes are approximate bucket estimates from Google — not exact counts. This Actor focuses on today's trending topics only. No historical data is available.
