Monitor your brand across Reddit, Hacker News, Pastebin, GitHub, and the web. Detect data leaks, security incidents, and track brand sentiment in real time.

What it does

Scans multiple public sources for mentions of your brand, product, or keywords. Each mention is enriched with:

  • Sentiment analysis — positive, negative, or neutral (keyword-based)
  • Urgency flagging — automatically marks mentions containing leak/breach/vulnerability keywords
  • Source attribution — knows where it came from and who posted it

Found something urgent? It can push a webhook alert so your security or PR team can respond immediately.
