The problem it solves

Bad reviews or complaints can pop up on Reddit at any time, and if nobody is watching every thread you can miss a problem until it grows into a bigger reputation issue. Checking manually across keywords and threads every day just isn't realistic for a small team.

Who it fits

Marketing or brand teams who need to catch negative online chatter before it spreads.

How it works

  1. The check runs automatically on a schedule
  2. Reddit posts matching your brand keywords are pulled in
  3. AI reviews each post and keeps only genuine negative mentions
  4. Irrelevant or low-content posts are filtered out
  5. Each flagged post is logged in a spreadsheet with its title, link, and excerpt
What you get

Brand complaints you catch before they spread

Reddit is scanned automatically for genuine negative mentions of your brand and each one is logged for your team.

What you get

A running spreadsheet log of genuine negative Reddit mentions about your brand, with links and excerpts.

What you need

A Reddit API connection, a Google Gemini API key, and a Google Sheets account.

We can build this. But should you?

The hard question is not how to build it. It is whether this is the right thing to build first.

That is what a Fractional Chief AI Officer figures out with you, before anyone writes a line of code.
