ShovelScout

ShovelScout searches public posts and comments across Reddit, Hacker News and business forums, and returns the ones where a person is asking for something: looking for a tool, asking for a recommendation, hunting for an alternative, or stuck on a problem.

Every result carries a short label of what the poster wants and links back to the original thread, so you can decide in seconds whether it is worth answering.

Titles, links and short excerpts only - we never republish anyone's full post. Search is free without an account; paid plans raise the daily search limit.
