# How to Discover Emerging Trends with ChatGPT

ChatGPT discovers emerging trends with predictive context, cross-referencing videos, songs, and creator activity to identify the strongest leading indicators. It generates a trend forecast report with maturity assessments, window-of-opportunity estimates, and ready-to-execute content concepts for each emerging trend. Designed for weekly content planning sessions.

## Setup

{"mcpServers":{"toolrouter":{"command":"npx","args":["-y","toolrouter-mcp"]}}}

## Steps

1. Configure ToolRouter in ChatGPT settings
2. Ask: "What trends are emerging on TikTok? Check popular videos, songs, and creators"
3. ChatGPT analyzes all three data sources and identifies emerging patterns
4. Request: "Rank these trends by how early they are and suggest content ideas for each"

## Example Prompt

```
Analyze TikTok popular videos, trending songs, and top creators. Identify emerging trends that are gaining momentum but have not gone mainstream yet. Suggest content ideas for a lifestyle brand.
```

## Tips

- ChatGPT can explain why specific trend signals indicate early vs late-stage opportunities
- Ask for a trend report formatted for sharing with your content or marketing team
