Show HN: Built a tool for founders to automate the grind of finding first users

We're all told to "do things that don't scale" to get our first users. For me, that meant spending 2-3 hours every day searching LinkedIn, Reddit and Twitter for anyone talking about a problem my software could solve.
The lead quality was great, but it took so long that it was getting in the way of my productivity.
I made a simple tool FeedPilot to fix this problem. It's a browser extension that runs in the background, scanning for keywords and conversations. It's not just a keyword alert; it uses a small AI model to find posts where people are actually asking for help or recommendations. This has been the main way I've got users, and it now takes me about 15 minutes a day instead of 3 hours.
I thought other founders were having the same problems, so I improved it. There's a free version that's really useful. Please tell me what you think.
