Turn the Asian forums global tools ignore into sentiment you can actually read.
How it works
Three steps — the same pipeline behind every tool and tutorial on this site.
PTT, LIHKG, Bahamut, HardwareZone — public posts, no login, through battle-tested Apify actors.
Pipe it to GPT or Claude — sentiment, share-of-voice, and what people are actually saying.
Schedule it. When volume spikes or the mood flips, you hear about it — not a week later.

Latest guides
2026-10-15 PTT has never published a public API — not even for Gossiping, its best-known board. This guide compares the two ways to read it (board list vs single post), the over18 age-gate cookie, the incremental-fetch pitfalls, and when it's worth building your own scraper versus running a maintained one.
2026-10-13 Centaline publishes no official API. Wire Apify's official MCP server into Claude Code or Claude Desktop instead, and you can ask in plain English how Taikoo Shing's current asking prices compare with its recent deals — Claude calls centaline-scraper itself and does the math. We ran it for real: 33 transactions against 40 listings, for about $0.17.
2026-10-12 A practical guide to using TypeSafe's Jev API for sentiment, relevance and intent labels on forum posts: the HTTP request shape, a 7-step recipe with the measured evidence behind each step, the full question definitions we used, cost per 100,000 posts, rate limits and pitfalls.
Every tutorial is written from actually running the pipelines — not from theory.
