Google Trends Explorer

A Google Trends API is an interface that returns Google Trends interest-over-time data as structured JSON, and this explorer shows that data as a chart you can compare across up to five terms.

5 free checks per day per visitor. Identical requests are cached for 24 hours.

Results are live snapshots from a search data source, not scraped from your browser.

How to read Google Trends numbers

Google Trends values are relative, scaled from 0 to 100 within the terms and timeframe you request, where 100 is the peak interest for that comparison. They are not search counts.

Changing the terms, region or timeframe changes the scale, so only compare numbers from the same chart.

Frequently asked questions

What do the 0 to 100 values mean?

+

They show relative interest, not search counts. 100 is the highest point of interest across the terms and timeframe you picked, and other points are scaled against it. Change any input and the scale changes too.

Is this the official Google Trends API?

+

Google offers its own alpha API with limited access. This tool returns the same type of Google Trends data through a search data provider, and the JSON view shows its structure.

Does this show related queries?

+

No. This tool returns the interest-over-time series and a per-term average for the period. Related and rising queries are shown on the Google Trends website but are not part of this tool's results.

How many terms can I compare?

+

Up to five, which matches Google Trends. All terms share one scale in the chart.
