TrendsConnector for JetBrains
Connect TrendsConnector to JetBrains AI Assistant through its MCP settings. Trend checks inside IntelliJ, PyCharm and the rest.
JetBrains IDEs accept external MCP servers in the AI Assistant settings. Add TrendsConnector by URL with your key as a header, and the assistant gains trend history, growth and live boards. Every series comes back on a shared 0 to 100 index, so one answer can compare Google, YouTube, TikTok, Amazon and the rest without a per platform account, scraper or API key.

Good to know
MCP support sits in the AI Assistant tooling and varies by IDE version. Update the IDE if the MCP settings page is missing.
TrendsConnector returns trend data: history, growth and live boards on a normalized scale. It is not a scraper, and it does not return raw posts, videos, listings or personal data. The full client setup reference, including copy paste config for every supported client, is in the docs connect guide.

Questions
Which JetBrains IDEs does this cover?
The AI Assistant MCP settings are shared across the IntelliJ platform, including IntelliJ IDEA, PyCharm and WebStorm on current versions.
Does it work per project?
The server is registered at IDE level and is available across projects once added.
Is TrendsConnector free in JetBrains?
Yes, to start. The Free plan includes 100 requests a month, every data source, and both MCP and API access, with no credit card. Paid plans (Starter $19, Pro $49, Business $199 a month) raise the request limit and history depth. Annual billing saves 20 percent.
Which sources can I query once this is connected?
Every source on the same key: Google Trends, Google Shopping, YouTube, TikTok, Reddit, Amazon, Wikipedia, news, app, Steam, npm, PyPI, X, Spotify, GitHub, IMDb, Open Library, Substack and web traffic series, plus the live ranked boards. Ask for up to five years of weekly history or growth over windows such as 3M, 12M and YTD.
Do I need a separate key for each client?
No. One TrendsConnector key works in every client and as a Bearer token for direct REST calls. Register it in each client you use.
