About Nicheloom

Nicheloom tracks every new product launch from Y Combinator, Product Hunt, Hacker News, and GitHub Trending — 33,000+ and counting — and clusters them into themes so you can see what's actually gaining traction right now, and which niches are already crowded. Think of it as a rabbit hole for builders: start with one launch and you'll end up a few themes deep in an idea you weren't looking for.

Why it exists

I built Nicheloom for myself. I wanted a straight answer to "what should I build next" that wasn't a guess — real launch data, not vibes. It turned out useful enough that I kept using it daily, so I opened it up.

This is supply-side data: what builders actually shipped, and how much attention it got. It doesn't measure demand, willingness to pay, or market size on its own. Every view on this site is a shortlist to go investigate — never a verdict.

What's on the site

• Themes — launches grouped by what they actually do, ranked by opportunity.
• Gaps — a vertical × function matrix showing underserved-but-attention-getting niches.
• Matrix — the full opportunity grid behind Gaps.
• Search — full-text search across every tracked launch.
• Blog — data-driven write-ups pulled straight from the live dataset.
• Newsletter — a daily digest of the day's top launches and a weekly opportunity spotlight.
