Hey everyone! Glimpse is a newsletter highlighting rapidly growing trends. We analyze hundreds of millions of consumer behavior signals from across the web to surface the most important and fastest growing trends that are under the radar, including products, companies, and industries. While tools like Google Trends are for researching the things you've heard of, Glimpse is for surfacing the things you haven't. Exposure to the unknown unknowns. After a successful first launch on Product Hunt last year, we refined our product and tech to bring you guys Glimpse 2.0! Whats new: Instant Alerts: Most substantive trends take months to develop while trends that go from 0 to 100 overnight are very often short-lasting fads. This is why Glimpse reports are sent on a monthly basis - we only cover trends that we think have long term momentum. For the occasion when we do see a rapidly growing and sustainable trend that has taken off in a matter of weeks, we’ve created Before-it-happens Alerts so that our subscribers know about these trends as soon as they’re happening. More Data Sources: We’ve increased data source coverage across our categories of focus. - Social - Shopping - Media - Entertainment - Search - Purchases Smarter Tech: We’ve poured our engineering energy into two major areas: 1. Early identification of trends. 2. Increasing certainty around whether a trend will continue to rise.

If I were stuck on an island and could only stay subscribed to one newsletter, it would be Glimpse (Pro version.) Sorry Product Hunt Daily 🙃 Seriously though, Noah has killed it over the past few months, Glimpse has only gotten better and I couldn't be more excited for V2 to come out. Keep rocking.

Give them a try!

Pros:

Such a cool service! They find such interesting trends that even the free newsletter packs some great insights.

Cons:

Some of the trends found are in some oddball industries.... but then again that’s also what makes it great.

Would love if the platform could share predictive insights about a particular topic you follow.

Pros:

Awesome insights explained in thorough detail.

Cons:

Nothing yet 👍

Not only this is one of the few newsletters I open and still keep receiving, but I wait for it like a child for an ice cream!
Noah Fram-Schwartz
@stanislav_dim So glad you're enjoying the newsletter, Stanislav!

If you're on the fence, I would test out a higher tier for one month. The data insights are like nothing you've ever seen.

Pros:

The best part about Glimpse is how it surfaces super unintuitive trends: oat milk, non-alcoholic cocktails, and CBD gummies!

Cons:

There's nothing else like this on the market so I have no cons at the moment.

Glimpse is a fantastic resource and Noah and his team are some of the brightest and most helpful people I've talked with.

Pros:

Glimpse is a core part of research that I do for my marketing clients

Cons:

None so far

Every entrepreneur/wantrepreneur/business-person should be subscribed, without a doubt.

Pros:

In-depth, unique perspectives and data

Cons:

Only get once a month on the free tier - that premium plan looks enticing!

Hi @noah_fram_schwartz, does the product still work?
Noah Fram-Schwartz
@shenchristw Hi @shenchristw, yup! Are you getting the emails? If not, shoot me your email at noah@meetglimpse.com and we'll take care of this!
Daniel Roger Casanova
Would love to see a more accessible tier for makers, a deal for those that really want to stay updated but don´t want to shell out a monthly fee... don´t know what we could do in return
Noah Fram-Schwartz
@danirogerc Thanks for stopping by, Daniel! We made the referral program for that exact purpose. You get an extra trend for each friend you refer. Your friend also gets one! Your referral code is shown to you just after signing up, but ping me if you need the code again!
Daniel Roger Casanova
@noah_fram_schwartz Hello! I need that code because it never showed ( I signed up the first day of Glimpse 1.0 and never got it)
Lola Hayes
Like everyone else has said: this is one of the few newsletters I actually open and read.

I strongly recommend this newsletter if you want to identify hockey stick curves outside your bubble at scale.
