Trend Hunter Advisory is a research and innovation service that pairs dedicated expert advisors with AI and the world's largest trend database to help brands turn emerging signals into confident strategic decisions.
From weak signals to breakout trends, we identify emerging signs using our proprietary Trend Intelligence Engine, assess what's relevant, and map insights to your category, business cycle, and strategic goals.
We've helped leading brands navigate change and complexity by creating strategies that allow them not only to lead their industries, but to help define the future.
Analysis
Get hands-on expert guidance to answer your most critical questions and enable confident, prioritized decisions about where to place your bets.
With three flexible engagement formats, your team receives the support and direction needed to answer a single question, manage an annual stream of work, or focus on a fixed-scope sprint.
Individual Analysis
A dedicated research advisor maps analysis to a single structured output while helping shape the brief and sharpen the solution. Best suited for one-off strategic questions or targeted opportunity areas.
Annual Packages

Trusted by Proven Innovators
“Trend Hunter Advisory is key, because it opens your eyes. Take 20 minutes, go in another room and look at what's happening in the world, look at what Trend Hunter is feeding you, because that's going to be the most important 20 minutes of your week.”
“We love the new Trend Platform. We believe it's awesome. It's a great way to look at what consumers are looking for in the future and we invite you to use it!”
“No service out there captures Consumer Behavior as well as Trend Hunter. I totally feel that you guys bring so much to the table, not even just between your vision and philosophy, but the solid research and results that you have. It's so nice to work with a consultancy that's so well-rooted in research and data.”

“The custom reports really speak out to us. There is a lot of information out there, but filtering is really difficult. What makes the difference is having somebody who begins to understand what we are doing, who can really help with that curation... a great resource.”
