what is trending now?

Hi
I have been on the internet for almost 15 years, but I missed all the trending, hot opportunities. I missed the crypto boom (the biggest loss, I was in it, but I lost the opportunity for my bad decisions). I also missed the dropshipping boom, the affiliate boom, covid etc.
This doesn't mean I haven't done anything. I earned it, but wasn't able to get the original taste, only for my own bad decisions and mismanagement. I always entered the market very late.
I have done e-commerce, digital services, crypto, and made some good money for day to day expenses, but not any handsome amounts.
It sounds a bit creepy.
I want to know what you or people are doing right now? I know making money online is not so easy anymore. The thing I did 10 years back very easily, but it is not so easy anymore. What is now trending, have market gap, comperetively easy to enter the market?
Recently, I have made an AI SaaS for podcasters for post production. For now am building a SaaS for auto blogging. I am making this from my personal interest. I know these have a lot of competition right now.
Now I am seeking suggestions from you. What is now trending, have gap to enter the market?

I think entering a war is easier than entering the digital marketing industry

You are not late you just chase hype. Trends now are boring stuff like local lead gen and AI tools for small biz.

Real money is in solving simple problems not in new shiny boom.

All that AI claw shit is going like crazy recently.

I would think that home automation is the big thing in the future. Well, of course the big players are taking over the market.
But imagine that there is an Alexa-type device in the apartment. Which listens all the time, but it doesn't necessarily need an internet connection to work. The pre-information is downloaded to it, which you can then update. That's how it talks to you normally; you don't necessarily need to say the magic word to it.
"Hey Meta, Hey Siri" You just talk and it listens and It will say to you if you ask/say something. Some people are already building some mini mac AI artificial intelligence stuff right now. But this ChatGPT-type conversationalist is the future.

I would think that small e-commerce sites like this will disappear, and the big ones will take over and eat up the market. Same thing as small shops in some city. Same logic that people will automatically shift their customer traffic to bigger stores.

Videos and images are increasing. Which completely replaces texts. However, text stories are supporting the issue if someone wants to know more about this. But probably with the help of AI, short videos of the news will be automatically made from texts. So the same logic will then also be in the products that are sold. In other words, the products that are necessarily sold are no longer images but are direct videos. Which can be viewed directly from many different angles.

If I had the knowledge and skills, I would currently use artificial intelligence to make short videos directly about the products. That way, your "online store" is just short videos that the buyer can see and then buy.

Right now the edge is distribution + AI + personal brand. If you can combine those, you’re ahead.

if you looking for trends it won't help you have to be on it before it becomes a trend that is how you can make the ultimate out of it

Building on the idea of emerging AI-enabled micro-niches, I've found that targeting narrow industries with customized automation tools can yield significant returns. For instance, I developed an AI-powered invoicing solution for independent contractors in the construction sector, which increased their payment processing efficiency by 32% and reduced administrative time by 41%. By focusing on a specific pain point and executing a tailored solution, I was able to establish a strong foothold in this micro-niche and generate substantial revenue. The key is to identify a clear problem, develop a precise solution, and leverage AI to deliver exceptional value to a specific audience.

To me, your project is incredibly interesting and has great potential. You could earn a lot of money from royalties if more users know about and use it. Focus on the technical aspects and boost advertising on platforms like TikTok, Instagram, and Facebook to generate profit.

if you already built an AI SaaS for podcasters, that's actually more aligned with 2026 than chasing the next crypto

AI only fans, man, just think of something and put "AI" on it

Home automation definitely has a lot of potential, especially as tech becomes more integrated into everyday life. You're spot on about the big players dominating, but there's always room for niche innovations. A device that doesn't need a constant internet connection and can talk naturally sounds like something people would value for privacy and convenience.
In terms of e-commerce, you're right. Smaller sites face an uphill battle against giants, but carving out a niche with a unique product or service can still be lucrative. AI-driven short videos for product showcases could be a game-changer. People love dynamic content, and video gives that extra dimension that static images can't. If you can harness AI to auto-generate these, you're tapping into a huge trend.
Also, consider the shift towards sustainability and ethical products. Consumers are more conscious, and there's a growing market for eco-friendly solutions. If you can blend tech with sustainability, you'd be hitting a sweet spot.
Overall, you're thinking in the right direction. Stay agile, keep an eye on emerging tech, and don't hesitate to pivot when you see an opportunity. The market gap often lies where innovation meets customer pain points.

Right now; anything that allows you to use AI to promote your content; would be something to look into. Many users get AI to generate images and they post that on their profiles; and then make clothing out of it for users to get. That is one thing.
