I went through this year’s Hacker News threads where someone asks for a tool. 1 in 4 never got a single reply.

AI 分析

痛点:独立开发者和创始人很难找到真实且未被满足的工具需求,Hacker News 上大量“有没有做 X 的工具”的提问因无人回复而沉底,错失机会。

目标用户:正在找产品点子的独立开发者、独立创始人、早期独立创业者

证据:120 got nothing at all, and some of those are really specific, like someone asking which bank to use for a new US startup, or looking for a natural language testing framework. / I made it as part of Kasspian, which finds threads like these for founders.

变现:订阅制需求线索库:免费展示部分未回复提问,付费订阅解锁完整分类、每周邮件或 Slack 推送、按关键词和行业实时提醒;也可售卖分类趋势报告。

MVP:两周内用 HN Algolia API 和 Reddit API 抓取近一年“is there a tool for X”类帖子,按回复数筛选出零回复或低回复条目,用简单规则加 LLM 分类打标,做成可搜索列表页和每周邮件推送,首页放 Top 未满足需求榜。

摘要:作者用 HN API 抓取今年 480 条真实“求工具”提问,其中 360 条有回复、120 条零回复,且不少需求非常具体(如新美国创业公司该用哪家银行、自然语言测试框架)。约一半提问集中在 AI 和开发者工具,回复中出现最多的产品是 OpenCode、Claude 和 Codex。作者将结果做成免费页面,并作为其产品 Kasspian(为创始人找这类帖子)的一部分。
