    I knew that layoffs in tech were coming. When it started, I've created Layoffbase to collect people without a job and help them get a new one. Now, I try to manually connect them with companies. What do you think about it? How can I improve this?

    Hello everyone, I got laid off last year and during the job hunt, I kept running into ghost jobs, these listings that never lead anywhere. Super frustrating. After some point, I started tracking company behavior across job boards. It snowballed into a little web app where you can actually see how companies are hiring — or pretending to. It's free, early stage, UI is a bit rough, but here’s what some info it shows per company: -Job boards they post on -ATS system they use -Median salary by role -Post frequency + how old the listings are -Skills and degree requirements -Track all existing…

    Hi HN, I built Layoffstoday, an open platform that tracks tech layoffs across ~6,500 companies. What it does: Aggregates layoff events from public news sources Normalizes data by company, date, industry, and affected headcount Shows historical patterns instead of isolated headlines Why I built it: During job transitions, I noticed people had to jump across news articles, spreadsheets, and social posts just to answer simple questions like “Has this company laid people off before?” or “Is this happening across the industry?” This is an attempt to make that information structured, searchable,…

    Hi HN, I built WARN Firehose because I was frustrated trying to track layoff data across the US. The WARN Act requires companies with 100+ employees to file public notices 60 days before mass layoffs — but the data is scattered across 50 state websites with different formats, broken links, and no API. WARN Firehose scrapes every state workforce agency daily and normalizes the data into a single database going back to 1988. It now has 131,000+ notices covering 14 million workers. *What you can do:* - Browse interactive charts and data tables (no account needed):…
