How it works
From a raw signal to a published idea, with a short market take on each.
- 01
Search
Web search across Reddit and Hacker News for people describing a real problem or wishing for an app. Standard search only: no scraping, no headless browsers, no bot-protection bypass.
- 02
Filter
Drop the noise: spam, ads, and AI-generated posts pushing SaaS products. Keep genuine, human demand signals worth a second look.
- 03
Structure
A light read of each signal to note the problem, a possible opportunity, and the source. Anything already in the archive is skipped.
- 04
Market analysis
For each idea, Hermes searches the web for competitors, market, and pricing, then writes a short, honest market take.
- 05
Publish
Write the complete markdown file, idea and analysis together, into the repository. The next build publishes it, no manual steps.
