   Highly recommend for anyone to monitor keywords

   I use it every day. F5Bot is amazing at notifying for specific keywords. The only downside is that it doesn't have context around your keywords, so you will get more emails with keywords than expected. It really depends on your keywords and how you monitor them. Overall it's a high quality monitoring service.

   👍 Pros:    Free to use|High quality|Reliable

   Pretty useful little tool for catching reddit mentions :)

   Easy to setup and forget, would definitely recommend

   F5Bot is awesome. Compared to similar services, it delivers notifications in nearly real-time. I get notified about online discussions mentioning my product as they happen, not a day later.

• How to Successfully Promote and Market an API

  Sign up for F5Bot and set up keyword monitoring for your Problem space across Reddit, Hacker News, and Lobsters. For example, if you're building a payments API, setup monitoring on "Payments API", "Stripe", "payments via API", "API for Payments", and anything else your buyer might be searching for.

• Ask HN: What Are You Working On? (June 2025)

  v3 of https://stacktape.com Stacktape is a PaaS that deploy to user's own AWS account. V3 adds many new features, but namely the ability to generate IaC config directly from code, by analyzing the user's repository (both deterministically and using multiple AI techniques).

  At https://stacktape.com, we're also in the same space. We're offering Heroku-like experience on top of your own AWS account. I like what you're doing. But, to behonst, it's a tough market. While the promise of $265 vs $4 might seem like a no-brainer, you're comparing apples to oranges. - Your DX is most likely be far from Heroku's.
