Show HN: Get emailed whenever your brand is mentioned on Hacker News or Reddit

Given that you're running it for free, any chance you'd open source it, so we can a) run our own, without costing you money and b) contribute?

Heh, I&#x27;ve been working on something similar too, but sending notifications to slack - <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;littlebirdie.io&#x2F;" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;littlebirdie.io&#x2F;</a> it&#x27;s sort of in beta phase at the moment, but you&#x27;re free to check it out.

I&#x27;ve seen this app: <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.trackreddit.com&#x2F;" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.trackreddit.com&#x2F;</a> Is the difference that your app covers Hacker News as well?<p>FYI, the verification email is not a link.

What&#x27;s the advantages using this service rather than using a custom Google search alert on a particular domain? <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.google.com&#x2F;alerts" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.google.com&#x2F;alerts</a>

I&#x27;ve tried to write something similar, but I found that I was hitting the upper comment limitation of reddits API (ie. If there are more than 10k comments on a subreddit within an hour). How did you get around this problem?

I made this as a tool that I found useful, and I decided that it wouldn&#x27;t be much more work to turn it into a free service and share. I&#x27;ll probably open-source it if there&#x27;s any interest.<p>It&#x27;s new, so any feedback is greatly appreciated!<p>Thanks for looking.

In case anyone is looking for something much more complex, quick google search came up with <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;mention.com" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;mention.com</a> - pricey, but looks pretty polished.

Trying to add keywords `react` &#x2F; `python` and others fail with...<p>&gt; That keyword is too common. Please enter a more uncommon keyword or phrase.<p>So some product names could fall under the `common` namespace.

I&#x27;ve been looking for something like this. Does it send you a daily summary, or an email for each mention?
