Find out which of your keywords are above their usual level right now.
Enter a brand, a game, a product, a person or a place. For each keyword the Actor compares today with its own normal level in three public sources and tells you if it is spiking, rising or at its usual level. No API keys and no setup.
What it checks
| Source | Now | Compared with |
|---|---|---|
| Google News | articles in the last 24 hours | daily average of the previous 6 days |
| Hacker News | stories in the last 24 hours | daily average of the previous 28 days |
| Wikipedia | page views yesterday | median of the previous 30 days |
A big brand and a quiet niche term are each judged against their own normal level, not against a fixed number.
Input
- Keywords: up to 20 per run.
- Use Google News / Hacker News / Wikipedia: switch sources on or off.
Output
One row per keyword in the dataset:
status:spike,rising,normalornot enough datasummary: one plain sentence about what jumped and by how much- per-source numbers: what it is now, the usual level, the ratio
- up to 3 headlines (Google News) and top Hacker News stories
- for Wikipedia, the article that was matched, so you can see what was measured
Good to know
- This is a one-time check. It does not remember earlier runs and does not send alerts.
- Google News shows at most 100 articles per query. For a very busy keyword (for example a big brand) that limit is reached even on normal days, so the Actor marks Google News as "too busy to compare" and judges the keyword by Hacker News and Wikipedia only. It never guesses.
- Wikipedia is matched by the closest article title. Check the
articlefield for ambiguous words. - News and Wikipedia are English-language sources.
- Spikes show attention, not whether the news is good or bad.
Want it watched all the time?
GAtrends runs the same idea around the clock: it learns the usual level of each keyword across 7 sources, checks every hour (every 15 minutes on Pro) and sends a short alert to Telegram, and you can ask Claude or ChatGPT what is rising. The Free plan has 3 keywords and needs no card.
