the trademark check is the part nobody else does ↓"World Cup" is a registered FIFA trademark — as are the trophy, mascots, and even "WC26". Automated scanners match the term in titles and tags; "fan art" disclaimers don't help.
Generic soccer imagery · city + year · team color palettes without names or crests.
What you get every week
Trends are everywhere. Screened trends are not.
Rising niches, while they're still profitable
By the time a niche hits a YouTube video, thousands of sellers are in it. We track demand signals across marketplaces and search — so you move during the window, not after it closes.
The trademark check nobody else does
Sellers lose entire shops over a single word in a title or tag. Every niche we recommend is screened against live USPTO and EUIPO records before it reaches your inbox.
From trend to design in one paste
Each issue includes prompts tuned for AI image generators, styled for what's actually selling — clipart, sublimation, SVG, seamless patterns. Copy, paste, generate, list.

Questions
Fair to ask
Is the report really free?
Yes. The weekly report is free permanently. The paid product is the full tool, later, for those who want it.
Do you sell my email?
Never. One weekly email, unsubscribe in one click. The privacy statement is written in plain English, by an actual security professional.
Is the trademark screening legal advice?
No — it's risk screening against public trademark records, designed to flag danger before you list. For a specific dispute, always consult a trademark attorney.
I sell on Amazon Merch or Redbubble, not Etsy — is this for me?
Yes. Trends and trademark traps cross marketplaces; the report covers the design market broadly.
