Cross-network signal
A thread taking off on Reddit or X sits next to the TikToks and Reels of the same day, in one list. Spot the angle on one network and adapt it on another before your niche gets there.
LIVE TRENDING RADAR
Stop opening ten tabs to guess what works today. ViralHunt reads rising posts across TikTok, Instagram, Facebook, X, Pinterest, Reddit, Bluesky, Mastodon, Douyin, Quora, Tumblr, Hacker News and RSS, reads each one again on a schedule, and ranks it by how much it grew between readings.
No credit card on the Free plan. Creator is priced per brand, not per seat.
HOW IT RANKS
A big account at 100,000 views is a Tuesday. A small account at 100,000 views in a day is a format you can borrow. The difference is not the number, it is how fast the number moved.
ViralHunt stores a reading of every post it holds and ranks by the engagement gained since the previous reading. Pick a window of 8 hours, 24 hours, 3 days, 7 days or 30 days; sort by viral, by rising (what moved in the last day) or by rising comments, because a thread people are arguing in is where a reply of yours reaches them. Filter by keyword, by niche, by brand, by network. Follower count never enters the ranking.
A thread taking off on Reddit or X sits next to the TikToks and Reels of the same day, in one list. Spot the angle on one network and adapt it on another before your niche gets there.
Drill into what carries a post: the audio and its momentum, the hashtags gaining ground, the creators behind the rising posts, and the hour they go out, measured on the viral posts we hold.
Send any post to the editorial board, rewrite the angle in the Content Studio and schedule it to 11 networks from the same workspace. Scheduling is included from Creator.
FOR YOUR AGENTS TOO
From the Creator plan, the REST API (100 requests an hour) and the viralhunt-mcp server give your agents the trending posts, hashtags, sounds and best posting times across 13 sources, and a draft queue a person approves before anything goes out.

Rival prices are the entry plan on each vendor's own pricing page, with the date it was read. ViralHunt is priced per brand with every network inside, not per seat.

Rival cells describe each product's own listed scope; the API and scheduler cells read "On higher tiers" or "Partial" when the vendor lists the feature outside its entry plan. Third-party roundups disagree with each other, so they are not a source here.
