By dang 2019-08-2518:44 Getting friends to do promotional votes and comments isn't ok on HN. This is in the FAQ: https://news.ycombinator.com/newsfaq.html. We ban sites and accounts for doing this, so please don't. Also, it's usually obvious to the HN community when this is happening, and they consider it spamming.
We want users to upvote submissions that they personally find intellectually interesting, not because they or their friends have something to promote.
By joshguthrie 2019-08-2313:321 reply This is exactly what I needed, all other solutions I've been exploring so far have either been a pain to set up or a pain to use for my users. Price seems good for what's being sold too, it's ridiculous how some competitors ask for twice that amount but cannot even do basic UX!!

Wow. That's something quite great for product team who need to include a comunity around their service or product. Just wonder how it works for the BtoB side and with what i can plug it (and how) but some great things can be done.
By MadMatt13 2019-08-2314:08 You can actually setup a webhook that will be called all the time there is a new message. You can integrate this webhook with pretty much anything with some setup. It's only the beginning though, we hope to make more integrations and improve the dashboard for moderation etc...
