Microstock trends, measured where there is still room
Every microstock tool you have tried runs after the fact: it generates keywords for a file you have already made, or reports which files are already topping the charts. This one runs before that. It measures how many illustrations already exist for a phrase, how much of that supply is AI, and whether buyers are actually searching for it — so you decide what to upload on evidence rather than on a hunch about what is trending.

Demand and supply, side by side
Buyer search interest from Google Trends, Pinterest and Reddit, set against how many illustrations already exist on Adobe Stock, Shutterstock and iStock. The score is the ratio, not a vibe.
A trend list shows you the competition
Top charts tell you which files and keywords are already winning — useful, but it is a description of a crowd you would be joining. Demand measured against supply finds the subjects nobody has covered yet, which is the only version of the question that helps before the work exists.
AI saturation from the platform itself
Adobe Stock flags its own AI-generated assets, and that first-party flag is where our AI share comes from. A niche that is three-quarters AI is commoditised whoever made the files — that is a competition read, and it applies to you whether or not you use AI yourself.
Upload before the ramp, not during it
Each phrase carries a 52-week demand projection, and holidays and releases come with measured lead times — how many weeks before the date buyers historically started searching. The upload deadline is read from last year, not from a rule of thumb.
Audit the portfolio you already have
Import your contributor CSV from Adobe Stock or Shutterstock and it scores the keywords you really publish: which sit in niches AI has taken, which of your own pieces are splitting one search between them, and which strong niches nothing of yours mentions.
What this does not cover
Supply is counted in the illustration catalogues, so this covers illustration and vector work rather than photography. Shutterstock and iStock publish no AI flag, so a niche measured only on those reports an unknown AI share rather than an invented one.
