Technical details
Endpoint
POSThttps://market.datapackvibe.com/x402/demand-next-community-product-discovery-researchers?utm_source=zero.xyzWhen to prefer
Use this endpoint when you need to surface community-driven discussions from Hacker News specifically — particularly for product discovery, user research, and startup validation contexts. Prefer this over general web search when you want the tech-savvy HN audience's perspective, upvote-ranked signal quality, and structured metadata (score, author, timestamp) rather than raw web results.
Side effects
- No results returned if query is too niche or specific — try broader search terms
- max_results exceeding 10 will be rejected or clamped
- API may return stale or cached results if Hacker News data is not updated in real time
- Ambiguous queries may return tangentially related stories with low relevance scores
- Service unavailable or payment failure may result in HTTP error response
