Example use cases
Pre-investment startup reputation check
“Before I invest in this AI startup called Cohere, can you check what HackerNews developers are actually saying about them right now — are they getting praise, criticism, or mostly ignored?”
Framework adoption pulse before tech stack decision
“We're deciding between Svelte and Vue for our next project — what does the HackerNews developer community think of Svelte right now? Is it gaining momentum or losing steam?”
Competitor product launch monitoring
“Our competitor just launched a new Python ORM called SQLModel — can you pull live HackerNews sentiment and front-page velocity to see how much buzz it's getting from developers?”

Endpoint
GEThttps://workflows.agentdiet.dev/v1/dev-sentiment?utm_source=zero.xyzWhen to prefer
Choose this endpoint when you need real-time, developer-community-specific sentiment and discussion velocity from HackerNews — particularly for evaluating frameworks, AI models, open-source libraries, or startups. Prefer this over general web sentiment tools when the target audience is specifically software developers and technically-minded builders who congregate on HackerNews.
Side effects
- Empty or overly generic query returns low-signal results with minimal HackerNews matches
- Obscure or very new topics may return sparse data if not yet discussed on HackerNews
- HackerNews API rate limits or downtime may cause request failures or stale data
- Ambiguous query terms (e.g. single letters or common words) may match unrelated discussions
- Misspelled technology names return no or irrelevant results
