RespondAI
Turn webhooks into smart Slack alerts
Hey ,
I built RespondAI after realizing how fast HN threads move.
A negative post can hit 200 upvotes in 30 minutes. Most founders
find out way too late — when someone DMs them "did you see this?"
So I built a tool that:
- Scans HN every 5 minutes for your brand/competitor keywords
- Scores each mention: Risk (1-10) and Viral potential (1-10)
- Sends a Slack alert with a founder-style reply draft ready to paste
The goal is to respond in under 30 seconds, not 30 minutes.
What it doesn't do yet (honest list):
- Reddit / Twitter monitoring (coming soon)
- Dashboard to manage keywords
- Anything fancy
It's free to start — just enter your keywords and Slack webhook.
Would love brutal feedback, especially:
1. Is the reply draft actually useful or just noise?
2. What would make you pay for this?
