Pythia · Stack Exchange — Dev Adoption Intel
Search Stack Overflow and the full Stack Exchange network (serverfault, security, etc.) by tag or full text. Where developers go for help reveals which technologies they actually use.
What it does
Tag mode returns questions tagged with a specific technology. Text mode full-text searches title + body. Output is structured for downstream dev-adoption analysis.
Quick example
Input:
{ "queries": ["datadog", "snowflake"], "site": "stackoverflow", "mode": "tag" }
Output: Per question — title, tags, score, view count, answer count, link, asked_at.
Use cases
- Tech-stack adoption — Track which competing tools devs are asking about
- Pain-signal mining — Find unmet dev needs in your category
- Dev marketing target list — Find experts in a tag for outreach
Pricing
$0.02 per actor start + $0.03 per question. Free Stack Exchange API; no key required for low volume.
Limitations
Stack Exchange API rate-limits per IP; this actor uses Apify proxy to spread load.
