Presented By:

Hey,

Here’s this week’s list of rapidly trending topics, insights and analysis.

Topic #1

Magnesium L-threonate

Magnesium L-threonate is the combination of threonic acid and magnesium.

Studies suggest that nearly half of people in the United States are not meeting their daily magnesium needs.

While some take the product in order to get enough magnesium, a big part of why Magnesium L-threonate is trending is because it’s considered one of the most effective magnesium supplements for brain health.

What's next:
Magnesium L-threonate is part of the Cognitive Enhancement Supplements meta trend.

The global market for brain health supplements is estimated to grow by 8% annually through 2028.

Supplements made from herbal extracts will see the fastest growth during this period (CAGR of 9.2%).

For example, one popular cognitive enhancement supplement brings in an estimated $18K/day on Amazon.

Topic #2

YOLOv5

Searches for “YOLOv5” have increased 99X+ over the past two years. And by 151% over the last 12 months.

YOLO, an acronym for “You Only Look Once,” is a framework for facilitating real-time object detection. The framework is popular in autonomous driving software because it can detect people, animals, traffic signals and more in real-time.

YOLOv5 is the fifth and newest version of the YOLO framework.

At only 27 MB, YOLOv5 is approximately 88% smaller in size than YOLOv4. This is significant as YOLOv5 can detect objects at 140 FPS, compared to YOLOv4’s max capability of 50 FPS.

What's next:
YOLOv5 is part of the ML-Assisted Image Classification meta trend.

Image classification is the process of using ML algorithms to understand what images represent, which is an essential part of computer vision technology.

Last year, VC funding in image classification startups grew by 3x.

Sky Engine is a machine learning training platform. The tool trains AI algorithms to understand images and detect objects.

SigAi provides object detection and image classification services for enterprises.

OneView is a geospatial data platform designed to train ML algorithms to perform object detection and image classification on satellite data. The startup has raised a total of $3.3M in funding to date.

Topic #3

Snipfeed

Snipfeed is a platform that allows creators to develop custom storefronts on social media.

According to the startup, user growth has increased significantly over the last 12 months (5x increase in their user base).

The platform is free to set up, however, they charge 15% of all transactions that go through their platform.

The startup has raised a total of $6.4M in funding over four rounds.

What's next:
Snipfeed is part of the Link-in-Bio Commerce meta trend.

Link-in-bio commerce refers to platforms that allow creators to advertise their services and products in a single link.

An example is Beacons, which already has more than 300,000 users and is reportedly growing by 3,000 new users every day.

In fact, the trend is growing so fast that even TikTok is looking at offering their own link-in-bio commerce solution.

Topic #4

Seat Gap Filler

A seat gap filler is designed to fill the gaps on the sides of the car seat.

They usually come in the form of organizers that give drivers and passengers extra space for their belongings.

One of the most popular seat gap fillers is made by Drop Stop.

Their product generates an estimated $299K/month on Amazon (AMZscout).

Drop Stop has raised $300K in funding.

Another popular seat gap filler brings in around $103K/month on Amazon.

What's next:
Seat gap fillers are part of the Car Consoles and Organizers meta trend.

Examples of trending car consoles and organizers include:

Car mask holders work similarly to tissue boxes. They are boxes filled with masks that are usually mounted on car visors. A trending car mask holder generates approximately $30K/month on Amazon.

Car hooks, as the name suggests, are hooks specifically for cars. One set of car hooks brings in around $4.6K/day on Amazon.

A backseat net is a net mounted between the back of the driver and passenger seats. It is often used as a way to stop kids or pets from moving to the front of the vehicle.
