Step map
Instead of relying on a single generic AI model, this pipeline connects specialized tools to maximize quality. First, you'll use Oxylabs Web Scraper API to a structured dataset of recent market signals ready for analysis. Then, you pass the output to Darts to a ranked list of predicted emerging trends with confidence scores. Then, you pass the output to Mintel to sentiment profiles for each predicted trend, highlighting opportunities and risks. Then, you pass the output to CB Insights to a validated set of 3-5 specific market trends with supporting evidence. Then, you pass the output to Glean AI to a professional report ready for decision-makers to act on market trends. Finally, UiPath Platform is used to a living trend intelligence system that adapts to market changes.
