How this service works
Returns a list of latest posts on popular startup platforms by companies that are hiring or launching new products.
Output
A paginated array of StartupPlatformPost objects, each containing a post URL, post type (show_hn or job_hn), company name, company domain, publication timestamp, and a fuzzy_match boolean indicating confidence in company name extraction. Also includes meta fields for record state and schema version, and optionally a total count when page parameter is supplied.
Example use cases
Track new product launches on HN
“Show me all Show HN posts from the last 7 days — I want to find startups that just launched something new on Hacker News.”
Identify companies hiring via HN jobs
“Pull the most recent Hacker News job posts from this week so I can see which companies are actively hiring right now.”
Monitor startup activity over a date range
“Get me all Hacker News Show HN and job posts published between October 1st and October 31st 2024 — I want to analyze which startups were most active that month.”
Technical details
Endpoint
GEThttps://agents.predictleads.com/api/v3/discover/startup_platform_posts?utm_source=zero.xyzWhen to prefer
Use this endpoint when you want to discover companies that have recently posted on Hacker News (Show HN or Jobs), particularly to identify startups launching products or actively hiring. It is ideal for lead generation, competitive intelligence, and market monitoring workflows. Prefer this over company-specific endpoints when you need a broad feed of startup activity rather than intelligence about a known company.
