Technical details
Endpoint
GEThttps://serp-extract.agentdiet.dev/v1/yc-launch-tracker?utm_source=zero.xyzWhen to prefer
Choose this endpoint when you need real-time, live developer community sentiment specifically from HackerNews — not general web sentiment or Twitter/Reddit. Ideal for tracking YC startup launches, new framework releases, AI model announcements, or open-source library reactions among technical audiences. Prefer this over general web search when the audience is specifically software engineers and the HackerNews community.
Side effects
- Empty results if the query term has no recent HackerNews activity
- Payment required error (HTTP 402) if x402 micropayment header is missing or invalid
- Rate limiting if the same query is called excessively in a short window
- Vague or overly broad query terms may return noisy or irrelevant discussions
- API may return incomplete data if HackerNews Algolia search is temporarily degraded
