Nowline
Hi HN, I built Nowline, a real-time trend signal feed for creators and researchers. It tracks emerging narratives and produces: • Top 10 trending topics • hourly issue summaries • Korea vs US narrative comparisons The output is available as RSS so it can be plugged into Feedly, Slack, or Zapier. Feedback is very welcome.
Nowline launched on February 25, 2026 with 3 votes, #3,486 of 16,627 launches that month and more than 50% of that year's launches.
What it does
Most trend tools show what's already viral. Nowline catches it before it breaks. 30+ sources monitored every 30 min. AI clusters mentions, scores viral potential, delivers via RSS. - Detects issues 30-120 min before Google/YouTube Trends - 3-layer viral scoring (momentum + predictive + trends) - RSS-first: trends in Feedly or any reader - KR vs US perspective comparison - AI noise filtering Free during beta. Under a minute to start.
AI monitors sources in real time, detecting cross-border signals hours before they become mainstream trends.
Measured lead times benchmarked against public trend platforms. Detect emerging signals across borders, before they become mainstream trends. We measure lead time, not sentiment. Korean signals surface hours before English-language coverage. We measure how many hours Korean community signals appear before mainstream coverage, not positive/negative polarity scores that every vendor already sells. Korean online community forums surface narratives hours before they reach English-language media. No English-language vendor has these sources. Track how issues propagate between Korean and US markets. When the same story surfaces across markets, propagation lead time is automatically measured.…from nowline.ai

Real-time system that tracks how news spreads across 200k websitesNov 2025 · yandori.io · ▲256I built a system that monitors ~200,000 news RSS feeds in near real-time and clusters related articles to show how stories spread across the web. It uses Snowflake’s Arctic model for embeddings and HNSW for fast similarity search. Each “story cluster” shows who published first, how fast it propagated, and how the narrative evolved as more outlets picked it up. Would love feedback on the architecture, scaling approach, and any ways to make the clusters more accurate or useful. Live demo: https://yandori.io/news-flow/
TL;DR2025 · tl-dr.tv · ▲199I love Hacker News but I rarely have time to read full articles / comments, so I built a simple site to summarize the top posts & comments to make it easier to get a big picture. A few implementation details: - It pulls the top stories from the HN Firebase API (`/v0/topstories`) - Filters stories with >200 points - Uses Claude Sonnet for post + comment summaries - Tries to capture the sentiment of the comments (still working on improving this) - Refreshes both posts + summaries hourly It has already helped me I hope it helps you! Please let me know if you have any feedback --…

- ATA tool to analyze Hacker News sentiment on any term in seconds2024 · classysoftware.io · ▲126
Hi everyone, we developed a tool that can easily tell you the overall sentiment of a message based on a word. For now it’s hacker news only but we think this thing has potential. Whether you’re a startup, solopreneur or product manager, you can track trends with it. We are also planning to add predictive tools and real time analysis. Operationally this tool is a lot cheaper than Sprout Social or other similar solutions on the market. No sign-up required. Just type and see results. I'd love your feedback on the tool's usefulness and any ideas for improvement.

Hello my name is Ben Ward for the past 3 years I have been remastering the financial game Wall Street Raider created by Michael Jenkins originally on DOS in 1986. It has been a rough journey but I finally see the light at the end of the tunnel. I just recently redid the website and thought maybe the full story of how this project came to be would interest you all. Thank you for reading.
