# Compare three competitor brands on one Google Trends scale

**Use case:** 

Runs one Google Trends comparison query so all three terms share a single 0-100 axis, the way the compare view on trends.google.com works. You get per term summary stats, the interest over time series with all three values on every date, the regional breakdown and related queries. Scraping the terms one at a time would renormalize each to its own scale and the numbers would not be comparable.

## Input

```json
{
  "scrapeTrendingNow": false,
  "trendingGeos": [
    "US"
  ],
  "trendingHours": 24,
  "includeTrendingNews": true,

## How to integrate an Actor?

This Task's input is already configured above. Use it as-is rather than inventing a new one.

Do not guess an integration path. Every one of them is in the agent quickstart at https://apify.com/agents.md: the Apify MCP server, Agent Skills with the Apify CLI, the JavaScript and Python clients, the REST API, and the account-free path for an agent with no human to sign in. It also carries the rule on stating cost before the first paid run.

For full API examples (JavaScript, Python, CLI, MCP, OpenAPI), see this Task's Actor page: https://apify.com/automation_craft/google-trends-scraper.md

Each client library has reference documentation the quickstart does not restate: [JavaScript/TypeScript](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js/docs.md) (`npm install apify-client`) and [Python](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python/docs.md) (`pip install apify-client`).
