Earnings Theme Mention-Frequency Trend Tracker
Extracts and counts theme mentions across the tracked competitor set each quarter, appends the counts to BigQuery.

What it does
Treats earnings themes as a time series. Each quarter it extracts themes for every tracked competitor, counts how many companies mentioned each theme and how heavily, and appends those metrics to a BigQuery table. It then compares the latest quarter against the trailing four-quarter average to flag themes that are heating up across the sector — the leading indicator of an emerging industry narrative.
When to use it
When you want quantitative, trendable signal rather than a snapshot — e.g., tracking whether "AI monetization" mentions are accelerating across your category over several quarters.
How it works
- 1A schedule fires once per earnings cycle.
- 2The flow reads the tracked competitor set and transcript sources from Airtable.
- 3Firecrawl scrapes each transcript.
- 4OpenAI tags themes and per-theme emphasis for each company.
- 5The flow aggregates cross-competitor mention counts and appends the quarter's row to BigQuery.
- 6A trend step compares against the trailing average; spiking themes are pushed to a Slack channel for review.
