Who buys this

Recruiting and sourcing SaaS targeting companies that are hiring.
Developer-tool and dev-service vendors selling to engineering teams.
Sales teams using "actively hiring" as a buying signal.

How it works

It finds the recent "Who is hiring?" threads from the HN whoishiring account.
It reads each top-level post and parses the company, role, location, remote flag, salary, apply email, and apply URL.
Each post is scored and tiered, then pushed as one lead.

Output

One row per post:

{
  "company": "Marker Learning",
  "role": "Lead Full-Stack Engineer",
  "location": "Remote (U.S. only)",
  "remote": true,
  "salary": "$160k-$190k",
  "applyEmail": "lucie@markerlearning.com",
  "applyUrl": "https://markerlearning.com/careers",
  "website": "https://markerlearning.com",
  "month": "June 2026",
  "hnCommentUrl": "https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=...",
  "tier": "qualified_lead",
  "leadScore": 80
}

Tiers and pricing

Pay per lead. The first 10 qualified_lead per run are free so you can validate output.

Tier	Meaning	Price
`listing`	Post with company/role but no apply email or URL	$0.01
`lead`	An apply URL or company website	$0.02
`qualified_lead`	A direct apply email	$0.05

The HN API is keyless, so runs are fast and cheap.

Input

Field	Default	Notes
`months`	`1`	How many recent threads to include.
`keywords`	`[]`	Filter posts by text (rust, react, ml, senior, etc.).
`remoteOnly`	`false`	Keep only remote posts.
`requireEmail`	`false`	Only keep posts with an apply email.
`maxLeads`	`500`	Cap total leads per run.

Notes

Posts are free text, so the company, role, and location are parsed from the conventional pipe-delimited first line; some posts give an apply URL or careers page instead of a direct email.
Respect HN's terms and applicable outreach laws when contacting companies.
