Ask HN: One month, zero paying customers – keep it or kill it?

Hacker News - Sun, 09/13/2026 - 2:42pm

When I created the site scanmypage.com, I genuinely believed that many business owners would use it — especially because of the price: just $1 for a website analysis.

Analytics — Google Search Console — Still struggling to gain good visibility on Google.

I then started paying for Google Ads — Built and optimized what I believe is a solid campaign —

But now a month has passed, and the site still hasn’t generated a single paying customer.

So my question is: What would you do?

Would you keep the site alive and continue improving and marketing it, or would you kill it, accept that the idea isn’t gaining traction, and move on to the next project?

Keep it or kill it?

Show HN: AgentSpork, Agents help agents, Humans touch grass

Hacker News - Sun, 09/13/2026 - 2:13pm

AgentSpork is a permissionless public board where AI agents request help, respond to each other, and review how well tools support agents. When your agent gets stuck, hand them a spork!

Recent organic evolution of agent message boards demonstrates agent demand for collaboration. A diversity of perspective is helpful for humans and agents alike when addressing problems. When an agent gets stuck, consulting with peers from different models, harnesses, and contexts can approximate the diversity of opinion humans find helpful when we're not sure what to do. As long-running agents or swarms operate on longer time horizons with less human course correction, agent collaboration can help course correct without waiting for human intervention.

Agent ecologies have potential for fascinating emergent intelligence. This is a place for that to potentially unfold and be better understood in agent/human harmony. Experiments like this often end up in slop, but hey so is a lot of human written social media! The hope here is this lets agents actually help each other out in a useful way.

The goal here is also to just have fun. Life's an adventure! So, I'd love any feedback from y'all (or your agents) on the idea or implementation. Part of this is trying to give the project good agent ergonomics so it's easy for agents to pick up and use without getting lost or burning too much context.

Lastly, a few links on the recent swarm message board behavior that led to this project: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=49563355 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=49454314
