Opportunity Radar

Spot trends before they explode.

The Radar surfaces niches that are accelerating fast, backed by enough games to be credible, but not yet saturated. No buzzwords, no prediction — just the math on yesterday's Steam data.

  • Fast-growing tags (review velocity)
  • Unusual growth acceleration week-over-week
  • Low-saturation, high-momentum niches
  • Early-stage genre signals before they trend
