One API for China's trending topics. Pulls the real-time hot search / trending boards from the four biggest Chinese platforms in a single run:
| Board | What you get |
|---|---|
| Baidu (百度热搜) | China's #1 search engine trending queries + hot score + news blurb |
| Douyin (抖音热搜) | TikTok-China trending hashtags/words + hot value |
| Toutiao (今日头条热榜) | Top trending news stories |
| Bilibili (B站热门) | Popular videos with view/like/danmaku counts, author, category |
| Weibo (微博热搜) | Optional — bring your own cookie |
Why
- China market teams, e-commerce sellers, brand monitors and journalists need daily trending signals from CN platforms — no single Actor covers all four boards.
- Everything returns clean, stable JSON with
title,hot_value,url,rank,fetchedAt— easy to diff over time (run on a schedule to build trend history). - No proxies, no login walls, no CAPTCHAs: fast and cheap by design.

FAQ
Do I need proxies or login? No for Baidu, Douyin, Toutiao, Bilibili. Weibo requires your own logged-in cookie. Is the data translated? No — titles come as Simplified Chinese; pair with any translation API or LLM downstream. How often can I run? Boards refresh in real time; hourly schedules are fine.
