Ask HN: Anyone managed to get Google trends API?

visox — Sat, 25 Apr 2026 13:20:04 +0000

Google trends should have some alpha API as announced https://developers.google.com/search/blog/2025/07/trends-api

i do have many ideas on what i could do with that data but i never got access, wonder if anyone here did and how did you achieve that ?

i also see some alternatives but they arent really good, its either bad data or only relative data as one can see on google trends page. (i would like absolute numbers)

I did many projects with web scrapping, that is in the past without AI :)

always felt nice to gather data but rarely could i do something useful with them or some sort of a good product. So today i dont think data is the problem, rather usefulness, PMF and marketing

hm you would need to use tools like google trends and some keyword research to find something people are already looking for naturally but isnt really there. That may work.

well i did basically an infinite stream of site consumption, i stored visited and to-be-visited urls but this can easily grow too much.

visox — Thu, 30 May 2024 14:53:46 +0000

Guess i would invest most of it stock index investing would be enough. Then i would do some travelling. I may not give up on my job right away even tho in my country the 4% from the 1M would be enough.

Do have some nostalgia towards ICQ, think it was great at finding people based on interest and geo-location. Dont think there is anything like that now, but i also think it cant be copied.

visox — Fri, 29 Mar 2024 14:23:38 +0000

Man i have a whole grave yard of projects that failed, most of the time the problem is i can build it but i cant sell it :D so not even sure if it could sell if i knew how.

On the other hand i did gain some fulfilment while building my projects, sometimes learned something and sometimes even earned some money in a different way
