Find brand-relevant Reddit conversations and draft AI replies

Scans chosen subreddits for relevant posts, drafts a helpful AI comment, and sends the best ones to Slack for review.

How the work actually flows

It branches. Exactly one path is taken; runs once per each subreddit post.

The problem it solves

You know potential customers are discussing problems your business solves on Reddit, but manually browsing subreddits to find good opportunities eats up hours. By the time you find a relevant post, the conversation may have moved on.

Who it fits

Marketing teams or founders who want to engage authentically in relevant Reddit communities.

How it works

  1. On a schedule, the system scans your chosen subreddits for new posts
  2. AI evaluates which posts are genuinely relevant to your brand
  3. A helpful, on-brand comment is drafted for each good match
  4. The post and drafted comment are sent to Slack for your team to review
What you get

On-brand comments ready for your approval

Your team gets a ready-drafted comment for every relevant Reddit conversation about your brand, waiting in Slack for a quick look.

What you get

A Slack message with relevant Reddit posts and a ready-to-review AI-drafted comment for each.

What you need

A Reddit developer account, an OpenAI account, and a Slack 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.
