Hacker News warm leads from public Ask HN / Show HN intent

Last updated: 2026-11-04 · Public posts only · No scraped emails

Hacker News warm leads usually appear in Ask HN threads, “Who is hiring / seeking”, and comments where someone names a problem your product solves. Warm Lead Pack can include recent public HN items for your niche — still no scraped emails; you reply as yourself.

Warm Lead Pack angle: we can include this platform in Starter/Pro packs when it fits your niche. Same schema as the free sample. You always reply yourself.

DIY checklist

Watch Ask HN and keyword search on news.ycombinator.com for problem statements in your category.
Prefer threads and comments from the last 7 days with a clear need.
Save the item URL, username, and a short snippet; draft a non-spammy reply.
HN culture rewards helpful specifics; avoid hard sells in first contact.
