How leads are found

Sources

• Reddit: public search results.
• Hacker News: stories and comments via the public Algolia search API.
• X (Twitter): paid plans only, within a monthly allowance (see Plans and limits).

Freshness

Each refresh looks back over the past week. Feeds refresh automatically once a day, and “Refresh now” on the dashboard runs one immediately.

Few or no leads?

• Use buyer phrases rather than your brand or product name.
• Shorten long keywords; exact long phrases rarely match.
• Add phrases about competitors (“alternative to X”, “X too expensive”).
• On the free plan only your first 3 keywords are searched.
