Looks very cool!

Thank you for checking the work and all the comments which are very very valuable. Site does quite a lot to be honest so please take some time to explore more :)

- It has over 15k individual landing pages for search engines - a dedicated page for each city, state, company, county. These pages are very reach on how they look haha: - Exmaple: new jersey page-> https://warnfirehose.com/data/layoffs/new-jersey - Data is exportable to multiple format including json-d and parquet - i never heard of parquet before. - The site has MCP (model context protocol) built in ! - it accepts payments on multiple methods including paypal, apple pay, amazon pay, card etc. All refund and all built in. - It also has an invisible admin dashboard where I can see everything (all metrics, signups payments etc.) - Reports are crazy - these are genuinely better than someone writing at wallstreet journal, seriously. you would have to check to see them. - The api endpoints.

I am convinced the role Software engineer is going to go away by this year end. We are turning into builders, not coders. All SaaS apps are going to take big hit because they can be builkt better for fraction of cost by anyone - just think about it.

- Its all about ideas and anyone can do it.

lol :) I love the name ! may be the name is worth a thousand haha

you should just be able to go to data -> all records -> type company name.

By the way, if the company is public, it brings up stock ticker, SEC link and all layoff related news. Plus all historical WARN notices by that company.

I am agreeing with two comments. There might be many reasons. Just the fact that there are only 12M records in last 30 years or so for all 50 states it definitely doesn't represent all data - may be 10%

Hi @skadamat - I am not very experienced with claude code and don't know what it has done previously but new opus 4.6 is great. I think I need to work on claude.md. That really seems to be the soul of Claude. I've incurred quite a lot of money on API cost and claude plan and my time. But I feel like that can be cut to 1/4th easily with a solid claude.md plan.

@cobertos The UI things should have been addressed. However I did to an extensive testing myself and everything seemed to have worked for me. I am sold that vibe coding is a thing, seriously. To your question about normalization cleaning - I have gone through multiple iterations - the data is definitely not clean and all. However, claude has made a function (instead of cleaning them on demand, it has a function which gets updated with every pattern so it could be reused).

For the pricing, to be honest I have zero hope to make money. Its just out there because I wanted to integrate this with stripe for payments and all. At the same time, if you look at competitor sites, they seem crap lol. plus look at their pricing. The site does have some operating cost and I will have to recover them if i can if I want it to be self sustainable but only if this is a value to someone. I am trying to make this a value. Please offer if you have ideas and I would appreciated it :)

great perspective @mmooss. There is a lot to grasp but I am paying attention. Do you think there is a value to these data if presented accurately, timely and with good analytics?

Thats such a great point. What if I am (somehow) able to warrant that the data presented here exactly matches the state notices? would that be helpful?

Thank you @malshe. I will review and get it addressed. The site is not perfect at all and I will address them.

Thank you and I will have them addressed. There are many things in terms of data quality and I am still working on it.

This is great insights @vicchenai. I just made it in a whim. I asked Gemini for suggestions and it presented few and I picked this one because there didn't seem to be good players out there. There is layoffdata and warntracker and all but they were built using hand coding :) it probably took them quite long to have it done. This is a challenging thing - 50 states having different data formats and having to poll them daily. Data cleaning is another thing. Historical data is also a thing. Plus all the blogs, reports, data presentation and api endpoints.

If it all can be done in a weekend without having to write a single line manually, sky is the limit no? Anybody having an idea can make these thing happen. I am not expecting it to make any money and it was a learning project but I do see some value for certain people.

Insurance brokers would benefit if they are first to know so they coudl target these layed off people. Recruiters the same and definitely hedge funds, short shellers and quant. Gemini tells me data is the new oil ! I am convinced.
