Hey Product Hunt! 👋 star count ≠ momentum ### The Problem 🤔 Traditional GitHub trending pages show repos with the most stars. But a 5-year-old repo with 50K stars might be dead, while a 2-week-old repo with 500 stars could be exploding. ### The Solution ✨ VelocityRadar calculates TRUE velocity: - **7-day & 30-day velocity metrics** (stars/forks per day) - **Trend classification** (viral, accelerating, steady, cooling) - **Multi-tier search** across different star ranges (50-10K+) - **Semantic search** - find repos similar to what you describe - **8 sector filters** - AI, Web3, FinTech, DevTools, Security, Data, Health, Mobile ### How It Works 🔧 1. **Multi-tier scraping** - Pulls repos across all star ranges, not just the giants 2. **Velocity calculation** - Time-series analysis of growth rates 3. **Trend detection** - Classifies repos as viral/accelerating/steady/cooling based on velocity curves 4. **Daily updates** - Automated scheduler keeps data fresh 5. **Semantic search** - Vector embeddings (Weaviate) let you search by concept ### Use Cases 💡 Developers: Find emerging tools before they're mainstream Investors: Spot high-velocity projects early Researchers: Track AI/ML trends in real-time Builders: Discover what's getting traction NOW Try it out and let me know what you think! 🙏 🔗 https://www.velocityradar.io
