Chat With Hacker News Demo

We connected camelAI to a ClickHouse database of every Hacker News story. You can use it for free with no login here to explore the data interactively yourself.

Hacker News is a real-time barometer of developer excitement. I mined every story title from February 2007 to June 2025.

You can ask questions like:

  • “When does dang tend to comment during the day?”
  • “Which domains have gained the most submissions since 2015, year-over-year?”
  • “How has average comment length changed each January since 2007?”
  • “Top five users who link to arXiv papers the most.”

The Problem

  • You get requests for custom insights and charts that aren't worth building into your dashboard.
  • Your engineers waste cycles on one-off data requests.
  • Building a chat-with-data tool in house means months of dev work plus endless maintenance.

With camelAI’s API and iframe offering, you can add a full-featured customizable ‘Chat With Your Data’ experience out of the box in 5 minutes.

Everything you need to get started is available on our website self-serve: https://camelai.com/api
