Find where an audience already spends time
SparkToro answers the question a media kit needs and analytics cannot: what else the people you reach are reading, watching and following. Type an audience description and it returns the podcasts, newsletters and accounts they overlap with. Reports are the unit of billing and four a month goes quickly once you start comparing.
Our note
The output is most valuable at exactly two moments: before pitching a sponsor, and before choosing which shows to guest on. Buy a month, do the research in a week, and cancel. Nothing here rewards a standing subscription for most creators.

Trend alerts for eight dollars a month
Treendly tracks search demand for topics and emails you when one starts climbing, with a forecast beside it. It covers the same ground as the expensive trend platforms at a price a single creator can justify, and the trade is depth: fewer sources, less slicing, no team features. For deciding what to make next month it is usually enough.
Our note
Against Exploding Topics and Glimpse this trades coverage for a price a single person can pay without thinking. Start on the free plan and only pay once a tracked topic has actually changed something you made.
