Everything you need to know about Trendlytic — what it does, how it works, and how billing is handled.
Trendlytic is a niche research tool for print-on-demand sellers. It scans TeePublic, Amazon Merch, Redbubble, and Etsy for trending and freshly selling designs, scores how saturated a niche is, and lets you check whether a phrase is trademarked at the USPTO — so you can decide what to design next based on real market data instead of guesswork.
Four: TeePublic, Amazon Merch on Demand, Redbubble, and Etsy. Search any niche and Trendlytic returns results from all four side by side, with sales signals from each platform.
Trendlytic surfaces what is actually selling for a niche: the top-performing designs behind it, not noise. On Amazon US we keep the new designs that are already selling, marked Rising, rather than bestsellers that peaked years ago. On Etsy we show each listing's favourites, since Etsy does not publish sales. Each result also carries its listing date, and a new design that is already selling gets an amber Rising badge (on Etsy: a new listing drawing buyers fast), while the newest of them read Rising fast, so you see which way the niche is moving now. Trending niches across all four marketplaces are refreshed every hour.
Best Design Instant is a no-input feed of the single strongest winning designs right now, scored and ranked from the data Trendlytic surfaces across TeePublic, Amazon Merch, Redbubble, and Etsy. There's nothing to search — open it and the top picks are already there, each with a winning score and the signals behind it (proven sales, cross-marketplace demand, what's trending). It refreshes through the day and is included in every plan.
Yes. Keyword Research takes a niche and pulls the real tags and long-tail keywords that best-selling designs actually use across all four marketplaces. Each keyword is scored for demand, competition and trend, so the less-crowded phrases competitors overlook stand out — useful for titles, tags, and listing SEO. Every keyword gets its competition count, filled in a few minutes after the table appears, and a Typed by shoppers tab shows the phrases shoppers type on each marketplace, measured where they type them. It's included in every plan.
Yes. Best Niches Today lists, every hour, the niches behind the Rising designs found on TeePublic, Redbubble, Etsy and Amazon in the last three days, each taken from a design's own title, with its designs, the marketplaces and a New tag when it first appears. Copy a niche, save it, or open it in Discover. Starter shows the first 12 of the day; Pro and Business show every niche, and the 3-day trial shows them all on any plan.
Yes. Trendlytic includes a mockup generator with a library of 500+ t-shirt photos: women, men, teens and children, plus flat lays and hanger shots, most of them black or white shirts. You upload a design once, it is placed on every photo, and you download the ones you want as JPG or PNG at up to 2000 px with no watermark. Inside the app, 1 credit from your plan opens a mockup for good: later downloads of it, with any design, are free. A free set of 8 mockups is open to anyone, without an account, at trendlytic.io/tools/mockup-generator.
Five AI tools included in every plan: a niche finder, and slogan, quote, listing and product description generators. Each one works from what is actually selling in a niche rather than from a blank prompt. A listing takes 2 credits and the others 1, from the same monthly pool as your searches.
Yes. Trendlytic publishes 20+ free tools at trendlytic.io/tools that need no account: tag, title and description generators for Etsy, Redbubble, TeePublic and Amazon Merch, profit and fee calculators, image tools, a USPTO trademark checker with three lookups a day, and a mockup generator with 8 free t-shirt mockups.
Trendlytic checks the exact phrase you enter against the USPTO register, with an answer never more than 30 days old, and reports whether there's a live trademark, who owns it, its status and dates, and which classes it covers. This is meant as an early filter before you commit to a design — always verify with a trademark attorney before launching a serious campaign.
Trending Now refreshes every hour and each column says when it was last updated. Every Discover search shows when each marketplace was read: most parts are read when you search, and a part read recently for the same niche is reused and shows its real read time.
Every plan starts with a 3-day free trial. A card is required and a $1 activation fee is charged when the trial starts; it is not refunded. The trial opens every tool, with 15 searches and 5 trademark checks. After it, Starter is $19.99/month (100 searches, 50 trademark checks), Pro is $49.99/month (500 searches, 300 trademark checks, ZIP downloads) and Business is $99.99/month (2,000 searches, unlimited trademark checks, CSV export). There is no free plan. All plans are monthly with no contract.
Yes. Cancel from the billing page at any time. Your plan stays active until the end of the current billing period, so you keep access to everything you paid for right up to that date. No hidden fees, no automatic renewal traps.
If a refund is appropriate (charged in error, didn't get what you paid for, etc.) we'll process it. Reach out to support@trendlytic.io and we'll handle it case by case. The $1 activation fee that starts a trial is not refunded.
Yes. When you downgrade, you keep your current (higher) plan's features until the end of the billing period — you don't lose anything you've already paid for — and then switch to the lower plan at the next renewal, billed at that plan's current price.
Yes. The marketplaces we scrape (TeePublic, Amazon Merch, Redbubble, Etsy) are global, and you can use Trendlytic from anywhere. Amazon numbers are what a shopper in the US sees, labelled Amazon US in the app. Pricing is in USD and billing is handled by Lemon Squeezy as merchant of record, which handles VAT/sales tax automatically based on your country.
Not yet. We focus on those four because they're the largest English-language POD platforms by seller count and design volume. If there's a specific marketplace you'd like added, email support@trendlytic.io and tell us — we prioritise based on demand.
No. Trendlytic is an independent research tool. We aggregate publicly available data from those marketplaces to help sellers make informed decisions. We are not partnered with, endorsed by, or affiliated with any of the marketplaces we cover.
One search reads the best sellers on Etsy, Redbubble, TeePublic and Amazon US and marks the new designs already selling. 3-day trial, plans from $19.99/mo, cancel anytime.
