What you get

Themes people complain about — terms that appear disproportionately in negative discussion, not just the most frequent words
Themes people ask for — the same lift-based method applied to requests
Author signal — which authors consistently draw engagement, with a lower confidence bound so a single lucky post does not look like a pattern
Trend — monthly volume and negative share, so you can see direction rather than a single spike

How it works

Uses the public Algolia API that Hacker News provides. No login, no rate-limit wars, no terms violation.

Pricing

Pay per event. You are charged per item collected and once per analysis you select. Deselect analyses you do not need.
