How PulseOrbit spots rising trends
By PulseOrbit. Published . Stored snapshot, 4 November 2026.
PulseOrbit is an AI trend radar that spots rising trends early and generates content, product, and niche ideas for creators and sellers. Methodology weights are search 40%, content 30%, marketplace 20%, and regional breadth 10%. The worked score is 45. A stored snapshot uses Wikimedia pageviews and the GDELT Project, not a live feed.
Where are the weights written down?
Search interest is weighted 40%, content volume 30%, marketplace mentions 20%, and regional breadth 10%. Each 28-day percent change is capped at 100 before weighting. A decline scores 0 on that part, because the score is built to describe a rise.
This deployment fills those same weights from a stored snapshot. The methodology page names the inputs and the rounding rule.
What does the worked example add up to?
The worked example Velocity Score is 45. Early Signal % is 50. How early is 6 weeks. The mainstream threshold is a search interest index of 25. The worked example gained 30 search-interest points, and 15 of them came before that line. The snapshot date used for that example is 2 November 2026. This worked example is not a row on the Rising Now board.
Parts on the methodology page are shown to one decimal place. The Velocity Score is the sum rounded to the nearest whole number. Do not treat that worked score as a result from a creator's channel or a seller's shop. It is an illustration of the arithmetic.
What changes in a stored snapshot?
A stored snapshot uses the same four weights and the same rounding. Attention is the 28-day change in Wikimedia pageviews for one en.wikipedia article. That is a global proxy, not a country search index, and it is not Google Trends. News volume is the GDELT Project. Marketplace demand is not measured, so that input is 0. Etsy and Amazon KDP stay idea text.
This deployment was built with the live data mode. Figures are a stored snapshot, not a live feed. YouTube view velocity and Google Trends via DataForSEO, when present, are separate labelled figures. They are not extra weights.
Questions about this note
How is the Velocity Score calculated?
Each 28-day percent change is capped at 100. Search interest is weighted 40%, content volume 30%, marketplace mentions 20%, and regional breadth 10%. The parts are added and rounded to the nearest whole number. The worked example scores 45.
What is Early Signal % in the worked example?
Early Signal % is the share of the search-interest point gain that happened before the index crossed 25. In the worked example, 15 of 30 points came first, so Early Signal % is 50.
Are Etsy and Amazon KDP part of the score?
No. Marketplace demand is not read from a shop. On a stored snapshot that input is 0. Etsy and Amazon KDP angles remain idea text.
