## About + methodology

- [About Vibe Code Ideas](https://vibecodeideas.ai/about) — mission, data sources, who it's for, who built it.
- [Methodology](https://vibecodeideas.ai/methodology) — full pipeline: scrape schedule per source, extraction prompt fields, deduplication via pg_trgm, popularity scoring formula, commentary generation, known limitations.

## Methodology (short version)

- Data collection: scheduled cron scrapes of public posts across seven platforms. Each scrape batches raw posts and passes them through Claude Haiku to extract structured idea candidates (title, summary, category, difficulty, market_signal, competition_level, revenue_potential).
- Deduplication: PostgreSQL pg_trgm trigram similarity at threshold 0.6 on title+summary pairs. Duplicates increment the existing idea's mention_count rather than creating new rows.
- Ranking: popularity_score is a database-computed signal combining mention_count (log-scaled), source diversity (count distinct platforms), and recency (last_seen_at decay).
- Commentary: every new active idea additionally gets a 2-4 sentence editorial paragraph from Claude Sonnet 4.6 covering market timing, closest competitor, unit economics, and biggest risk.
