Real workflows

What people actually build with Hacker News

Workflow 1

Daily curated HN brief

Wake up to a 4-bullet summary of what's worth reading on HN in your domain. The agent reads the top 30 stories, filters by your interests, and distills the best comments into one scannable email.

Workflow 2

'Who's Hiring' job filter

Set criteria — remote, staff+ level, Python, Series B or later. The agent scans the monthly 'Who's Hiring' thread and sends matching roles to Telegram with a draft application.

Workflow 3

Show HN opportunity scout

Watch Show HN for launches in your space — potential partners, competitors, or acqui-hire targets. The agent surfaces them with a summary and engagement traction from the comments.

Why Klaws

Klaws vs HN's Algolia search

HN's search works if you know exactly what you're looking for. A Klaws agent reads the feed continuously and surfaces what matters to *you*.

Reads comments, not just titles

The signal on HN lives in the replies. The agent summarizes top comments so you don't have to click every story.

Learns your filters

After a week it knows which topics you actually read vs skim. Irrelevant stories stop appearing in your digest.

Catches trends early

Surfaces stories gaining upvote velocity before they hit the front page. Useful for scoping new tools.

Delivered where you work

Email, Telegram, or Slack — not a dashboard you have to check.

FAQ

Common questions

Does it use the official HN API?

Yes. All data comes from the public Hacker News Firebase API. No scraping.

Can it post comments on HN?

No. Klaws is read-only on HN — posting would require your personal account and the community frowns on automated replies.

How often does it check HN?

Continuously for urgent matches, digests are delivered on your chosen schedule (hourly, daily, weekly).

Can it track specific HN users?

Yes. Add any HN username and the agent watches their submissions and comments. Useful for following specific founders, researchers, or domain experts.
