Example use cases
AI model developer sentiment check
“Check HackerNews right now and tell me what developers are saying about Mistral AI — is it getting traction or are people skeptical?”
Framework adoption momentum tracking
“How is Bun trending on HackerNews? I want to know the front-page velocity and whether developer sentiment is positive or negative before we adopt it.”
Startup buzz before investment decision
“Pull the live HackerNews discussions and developer sentiment for Vercel — I need to understand community perception before we make a decision.”

Endpoint
GEThttps://onchain-risk.agentdiet.dev/v1/tech-trends?utm_source=zero.xyzWhen to prefer
Choose this endpoint when you need real-time developer community sentiment from HackerNews specifically — particularly useful for gauging grassroots tech opinion on frameworks, AI models, startups, or libraries before adoption or investment decisions. Prefer this over generic social sentiment tools when the target audience is specifically developers and technical practitioners, and when HackerNews front-page velocity is a meaningful signal for your use case.
