# Nextatlas Generate > Nextatlas Generate is a generative trend-intelligence platform that answers consumer, cultural and market research questions in real time. Ask a question in plain language and Generate returns a sourced, structured brief with interactive visualizations — grounded in proprietary behavioral signals from 300,000+ early adopters tracked across 50+ social and online sources since 2012. Generate is built by Nextatlas (iCoolhunt S.p.A.) and powered by the Nextatlas signal engine: twelve years of cultural memory that captures what early adopters do *before* trends reach the mainstream. Unlike general-purpose AI trained on the public web, Generate is connected to a real-time, proprietary behavioral dataset, so every answer reflects observed consumer behavior happening now and is source-cited. It is designed for the people who write briefs, build decks and forecast what consumers will care about next — brand strategists, trend researchers, innovation leads, insights directors, and freelancers. Typical time to first insight is under 60 seconds. ## What Generate does - [How it works](https://generate.nextatlas.com/#how-it-works): Ask a question in plain language; Generate researches across 300,000+ early-adopter signals and returns a structured, source-cited brief with interactive visuals — no search syntax or methodology to learn. - [Features](https://generate.nextatlas.com/#features): Persistent cross-session memory of your brief (brand, category, tone); 9 deck-ready visualization types (charts, maps, timelines, mind maps, moodboards); consumer archetypes built from behavioral signals; adjustable depth (quick scan / standard research / deep analysis); file upload for briefs, competitor ads and moodboards (images, PDFs, creative files). - [Lenses & templates](https://generate.nextatlas.com/#lenses): 5 structured multi-step research flows plus 8 instant-brief templates, each triggered with a slash command. ## Lenses (structured research flows) - **/personas** — Decode an audience into 3–5 living cultural archetypes with name, biography, values and verbatim behaviors, not demographic boxes. - **/opportunity_map** — Map whitespace in a category: consumer needs that have momentum and breathing room versus existing offers. - **/signal_convergence** — Identify the meta-trend behind scattered early-adopter signals before it has a name. - **/audience_cluster** — Break any audience into data-driven segments with demographics, behaviors, motivations and cultural codes — no surveys or panels. - **/regional_divergence** — Compare the same trend across Italy, US, EU and APAC: phase, local nuances, barriers and regional leads. ## Quick templates (instant briefs) - **/trend** — Full anatomy of a signal. - **/compare** — Two signals head-to-head. - **/audience** — Who cares about this. - **/moodboard** — Visual early-adopter posts. - **/emerging** — What is sparking right now. - **/need** — Need-state analysis. - **/geo** — Geographic breakdown. - **/history** — Nextatlas chrono-history of a signal. ## Pricing Generate is token-based: you pay for actual AI compute (input + output).
