I built Needle because I kept jumping between Reddit, Hacker News, GitHub, and forums trying to understand what people were saying about certain problems and products.
Needle runs one search across 12 communities and shows the discussions in one place.
People use it to: - find potential customers - discover competitors - monitor keywords - spot emerging problems
We recently added a brand setup feature where you enter your product info once and Needle auto-generates relevant searches across the platform.
Would love feedback from the HN community.
