Follow your launch day across Hacker News, X and Reddit

Your launch’s Hacker News thread, the posts on X and Reddit, and the press, read together every few hours with the questions to answer now.

Steps

At most, per call

A launch day monitor reads every conversation about your launch and tells you what to answer first. With Agentik, your AI reads your Hacker News thread from Hacker News, posts through the X API, Reddit threads through ScrapeCreators and the press with Serper.

Step 1: Read Hacker News
Hacker News search finds your launch post, and Hacker News returns its full comment thread.

Step 4: Write the read-out
Your AI writes the reception per platform, the questions and objections to answer with links, the bugs reported and what to post next.
Your agent does this part, with no tool call.

Cost of the example

At most $1.52one run

One Hacker News search and thread, 100 X posts, one Reddit search, one news search.

Give this to your agent

Use my connected Agentik MCP server for this job: launch day monitor.

Monitor my launch. First ask me for my product’s name, its domain and where I posted the launch.

Find my Hacker News post with hackernews/search and read its thread with hackernews/item. Read posts on X with x/search-recent, Reddit with scrapecreators/get-v1-reddit-search and the press with serper/news.

Finish with the overall reception, the questions and objections to answer now (with links), bugs reported, the people worth thanking, and what to post next.

Before running anything, inspect each tool with inspect_tool, ask me for any input you don’t have instead of inventing it, and tell me the total price. Wait for my go. At the end, tell me what Agentik charged.

Placeholders. Your rows come from your run.

Each provider does one part

No single provider covers this job. Your agent calls each one for its part, from one connection.

Good to know

Rerun it every few hours on launch day; each run picks up new threads.
Hacker News is free; X posts are billed per post returned.

When to use something else

For always-on brand monitoring after the launch, use the social listening playbook weekly or a monitoring tool. This one is built for the launch day itself.

Questions

How often should I run it?

Every few hours on launch day. Each run picks up new threads and posts.

Does it reply for me?

No. It drafts replies; you post them in your own voice.

What does the example cost?

At most $1.52, mostly the X posts. Fewer posts make each run cheaper.
