This one has been quiet for a while

Quiet is not dead — but it is worth knowing when it wakes up, or when someone else takes it over. We watch the repository and tell you either way.

Available tools 4

Read directly from the server with tools/list, grouped by what they act on. If a tool disappears, we record the date.

trends
trends___get_growth
Point-to-point growth for a keyword on one or more sources. Each window is a preset string (12M, 3M, YTD, and the other listed periods). Values are on a 0-100 scale, plus absolute volume when available. Prefer this over get_time_series for growth questions. app downloads and app rankings are keyword sources (Android bundle ID). They are not the App Store / Google Play live boards on get_top_trends. If the request is rate limited or the monthly quota is used up, tell the user their plan limit is reached.
trends___get_time_series
Full historical series for one keyword and one source (0-100 values, plus volume when available). Use for charting or custom math. Not for live 'what's trending now' boards (use get_top_trends). For most growth questions, use get_growth. If the request is rate limited or the monthly quota is used up, tell the user their plan limit is reached.
trends___get_top_posts
Live top posts for one hashtag on one social source. Fetched live on every call; nothing is stored. Use when the user already has a hashtag and wants the posts winning on it. For ranking hashtags themselves, use get_top_trends. If the request is rate limited or the monthly quota is used up, tell the user their plan limit is reached.
trends___get_top_trends
Live top-trending board for exactly one feed type. No keyword. For 'Amazon Best Sellers by Category', 'Google Trends by Category', 'Top Websites', 'Substack by Category', and 'TikTok Trending Hashtags by Category', always pass category. Default sort is current rank. Use sort='rank_change' for climbers vs a prior snapshot (window 1d, 3d, 7d, 14d, or 30d). If the requested board is not in the database yet (for example a country that is not collected on the schedule), the handler fetches that one board live. App Store Top Free, App Store Top Paid, and Google Play are live store boards, not keyword lookups. For an app's history use get_growth or get_time_series with source app downloads or app rankings and an Android bundle ID. Do not use get_time_series for live boards. If the request is rate limited or the monthly quota is used up, tell the user their plan limit is reached.

Google Trends MCP — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

What can Google Trends MCP do?
It exposes 4 tools, read directly from the server on our last check. Among them: trends___get_growth, trends___get_time_series, trends___get_top_posts, trends___get_top_trends. The full list with descriptions is on this page — we take it from the server itself via tools/list, not from a README. How MCP servers expose tools in the first place →
Is Google Trends MCP working right now?
We send a real MCP handshake every 15 minutes. Over the last 24 hours 91 of 91 checks got a reply (100.0%), average response time 446 ms. The bar chart above shows every period we have measured.
Is Google Trends MCP still maintained?
The linked repository no longer exists on GitHub — it was deleted or made private. We show this because it changes what you can expect: an unmaintained server may keep answering for months and then stop without warning.
How do I connect Google Trends MCP?
Copy the ready config from this page — we generate it for Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Codex, Cursor and VS Code, each with the file path that client actually reads. It is a remote server, so there is nothing to install — the client connects to the address.
Does Google Trends MCP need an API key?
No. Google Trends MCP completed a full MCP handshake with us as an anonymous client and listed its tools without asking for anything. All 4 of them are readable on this page. This is what we observed, not what the docs claim.
How fast is Google Trends MCP?
It answers our handshake in 446 ms on average, which is faster than 33% of all working MCP servers we measure. The comparison comes from our own checks across the whole registry, every 15 minutes.
