Show HN: Trendly AI – Trend detection across 42 languages

Hi HN! Bhuwan here.

I built Trendly AI to solve a problem many content creators and marketers face - identifying emerging trends early and quickly creating relevant content.

Key features: - Multi-language trend detection across 42 languages - Region-based filtering for localized trend analysis - One-click content generation for social media, blogs, and more - Cross-platform support (LinkedIn, Twitter, Instagram, etc.)

Our system aggregates data from social media, news sites, forums, and search trends to identify patterns before they go mainstream.

Would love your feedback, especially on finding trending topics and multi-language capabilities!

youngNed•8mo ago
Hi Bhuwan,

Congrats on your product, it looks very professional.

But...

> identifying emerging trends early and quickly creating relevant content.

This does not sound 'good' to me, this sounds like piggy-backing to generate clickbait - have i got this wrong? This sounds like a tool to make better spam.

jackphilson•8mo ago
Why make irrelevant content?
bhuwanaryal1404•8mo ago
Exactly - that's not the goal. Trendly helps people find what topics are actually relevant to their audience right now, rather than guessing or creating content in a vacuum. Better market intelligence should lead to more relevant content, not less
bhuwanaryal1404•8mo ago
I hear your concerns about content quality, and I appreciate the honest feedback.

Trendly AI is built for marketers, researchers, and creators who want to discover trending topics and articles to inform their content strategy — not to replace thoughtful content creation. The goal is to help users understand what their audience is currently interested in, especially across different languages and regions.

It’s not just about generating posts—many use Trendly purely for research purposes, like finding emerging articles, studying cultural shifts, or planning campaigns. The creativity and value still come from the user—Trendly is just the discovery and acceleration layer.

That said, I’m open to ideas on how we can keep it focused on responsible, high-value use cases.

The short word for this kind of product is 'spam'.

Much like the Viagra emailers of old, this is not an honourable occupation and those that say it is are not good people.

jackphilson•8mo ago
Sounds like you've identified a pretty good market opportunity to fix it.
cess11•8mo ago
I'm already quite busy, maybe you could take a stab at it?
jackphilson•8mo ago
Sure

"Turn Trends Into Content Instantly with AI"

This feels like infrastructure to help deliver AI slop.

What is the sales pitch for a company like this, "spammers will always exist, so fund us and we can take a cut of peoples' spamming activities?"

elpakal•8mo ago
It will be impossible soon (already almost there) to determine what is real content by real humans and what is AI generated <slop>. Human-to-human experiences will become a priceless commodity.

IMHO

bhuwanaryal1404•8mo ago
I understand the concern about AI slop. That's actually not what we're building toward.

Think of Trendly more like Google Trends or BuzzSumo - it's a research tool with content assistance features. Most of our users are doing market research, tracking brand mentions across languages, or understanding cultural conversations they wouldn't otherwise have visibility into.

The "instant content" angle was poor messaging on my part. The real value is in the discovery and insights, not automation.
