Replied to the GP directly about how we find this, you pretty much nailed it!
As for astroturfing: I am certainly guilty of self-promotion. When this post didn’t get traction, after a few days I thought maybe Show HN finds this interesting. In addition, my team of ~5 will have upvoted this post (although that probably works counter productive with HN's algorithms, I couldn’t/wouldn't stop them). Other than that we don’t deploy any schemes here, what you likely see is that, because we exploded on Reddit over the weekend, its users are posting it to HN too.
