> TrendsMCP is an MCP server and REST API for live trend data across search, social, commerce, news, and developer platforms (Google Search/Images/News/Shopping, YouTube, TikTok, Reddit, Amazon, Wikipedia, news volume/sentiment, app downloads, npm, Steam, plus 15+ live feeds). ~5 years of weekly history where available. One account covers MCP and REST.
Two MCP hosts (not interchangeable):
- `https://api.trendsmcp.ai/mcp` — Bearer API key (Cursor, VS Code, Claude Desktop, Claude Code, most clients)
- `https://www.trendsmcp.ai/mcp` — OAuth 2.0 for Claude.ai Connectors only (do not “correct” this to api.)
- REST: `POST https://api.trendsmcp.ai/api` with `Authorization: Bearer <key>`
- Free: 100 requests/month, no credit card
- Paid: Starter $19/mo (1,000 req), Pro $49/mo (5,000), Business $199/mo (25,000). Annual saves 20%.
