What is TrendRadar?
TrendRadar is a free, open-source trend monitor that aggregates hot topics and RSS feeds across platforms, then uses AI to filter, translate and summarise what matters. Push focused updates to WeChat, Telegram, email and more, or query trends through MCP, with data kept locally or in your own cloud.
