I run a consumer app that initially took off from viral PR & WOM, but growth was plateauing and I was stuck in the ~500 follower hell on Instagram, despite posting every day. Growing organically on social is genuinely dark arts. You either get sucked into influencer collabs, buying followers, 'engagement pods,' or earnestly trying to make good content that gets ~100 views. It's soul-sucking. So I built ShowStop to solve my own problem. It detects viral trends as they're emerging and turns them into ready-to-use content briefs for your brand. In the last 2 weeks, it's helped PickleMatch go viral 3x. Posts are getting 5x the engagement and reaching 80% more new people. Here's what ShowStop does: • Surfaces trending content on IG & TikTok before it peaks • Turns trends into templates you can adapt to your brand • Generates content briefs with hooks, angles, and creative direction • Everything lives in one collaborative content calendar It's basically a creative strategist for your social team. Try it free at ShowStop.ai and let me know what you think! 🚀

I hate spending hours looking for trends that will be relevant for my product. This seems to be a good way to solve this. Will give it a go!

Nice idea, anyway I can use it to analyze Youtube shorts or Facebook Reel trend as well?

@sam_c6 currently only IG Reels & TT, but working on Shorts as our next channel. I'd love to jam with you about your Shorts content planning. Would you be up for a call? If so, here's my cal!

This is so interesting! What a great product for marketers. Creating brand briefs takes so much time and this would make the process much more efficient while uncovering hard to find insights! Can't wait to use it. Great job ShowStop team!

That is a big lift for PickleMatch. Was it an initial bump, or are you finding engagement/audience size is still increasing after you have implemented?

@bill_stagg so growth is definitely inherently a bit spikey because of break-out posts, but PickleMatch is hitting 'best week ever' almost every week on IG.
