Hacker News Scraper 🟠

Search and export Hacker News — stories, comments, Show/Ask HN, polls, and the front page — via the official Algolia HN Search API. Title, URL, points, comment count, author, text, and dates, in one clean feed.

Great for tech/startup trend tracking, brand and product monitoring, developer sentiment, and feeding AI agents with tech-news signal.

What it does

Search by keyword, filter by type (story, comment, Show HN, Ask HN, poll, front page).
Filter by author and minimum points.
Sort by relevance or newest; auto-paginates.

Input

{
  "queries": ["AI agents"],
  "type": "story",
  "sortBy": "relevance",
  "minPoints": 50,
  "maxItemsPerQuery": 100
}

Output (one row per item)

{
  "type": "story",
  "object_id": "40000000",
  "title": "Show HN: I built an AI agent framework",
  "url": "https://example.com",
  "author": "someuser",
  "points": 412,
  "num_comments": 133,
  "created_at": "2026-07-14T...",
  "hn_url": "https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=40000000"
}

Notes

Uses the official, free Algolia HN Search API — stable and reliable.
No key and (usually) no proxy needed.
