Show HN Tracker

Track Show HN launches on Hacker News. Built for PR, comms, media-monitoring teams and AI agents.

⏰ Run this as a launch watch (recommended)

Every IP registry actor is a monitoring subscription, not a one-shot lookup. Schedule a weekly sweep and catch new filings as they land:

{
  "query": "company or keyword",
  "limit": 100
}

Weekly cron (0 8 * * 1) turns this into an always-on launch watch.

📊 What you get

Clean JSON, one record per story (full output has 7 fields):

title — Title
url — Url
points — Points
author — Author
num_comments — Num comments
created_at — Created at
story_type — Story type

Pricing: $0.02 per story (Pay-Per-Event) — about 50 storys per $1.

🤖 Use with AI agents

Point Claude, the OpenAI Agents SDK, an n8n flow or any MCP-aware client at it and run Hacker News Show HN launch monitoring on demand.

Sample agent prompt:

List new Show HN launches this week with points and comments.

Agentic payments (x402): Supports agentic payment via x402 — agents can call this actor with USDC, no API key required.

Full media-monitoring stack — monitor every major wire: PR Newswire, Business Wire, GlobeNewswire, PRWeb, EIN Presswire, Brand Mention Monitor
