Trends on the Rise

  • Micro SaaS: Solving Niche Problems with Small Teams
    Micro SaaS businesses are booming, focusing on solving specific problems for niche customer segments with small, lean teams. One-person startup AutoShorts, which uses AI to generate short-form video content for YouTube and TikTok, has already reached $1M ARR since launching in February 2024.

  • Quadrobics: A New Fitness Trend on All Fours
    Quadrobics, an exercise that mimics animal movement by moving on all fours, is taking off as a full-body workout that requires no equipment. Its unique appeal on social media platforms like TikTok, where the #quadrobics hashtag has over 356K videos, is driving its popularity.

  • ADHD Watch: Enhancing Focus and Organization
    ADHD watches are becoming a popular tool to help children and adults with ADHD manage their daily tasks. Originally just cheap smartwatches, companies are now rebranding them as ADHD-specific devices due to growing demand. One such watch, which vibrates silently and features a single-button interface, generates approximately $17K/month on Amazon.

  • BIAB Nails: A Healthier, Long-Lasting Manicure Alternative
    BIAB (Builder in a Bottle) nails are emerging as a popular alternative to traditional gel manicures and shellac. Unlike gel, which can damage nails over time, and shellac, which only lasts two weeks, BIAB offers a healthier option that can last much longer. The trend has gained traction on Instagram, with over 1.8 million posts under the hashtag #BIABnails.
