How the forecast is computed

We add the average month-over-month change (momentum) over the most recent three months to the latest actual to estimate the next month, then normalize so all tools sum to 100%. Discontinuous changes such as new model launches or sudden buzz are not reflected.

For transparency, we also include a "backtest" where the same model forecasts the latest month and is compared with the actual. For the methodology, see also Data & methodology.
