The problem it solves

You want to catch new freelance job posts the moment they go up, but refreshing Reddit all day isn't realistic and by the time you check, the good ones are gone. Sorting real paid work from noise and remembering what you've already seen takes time you don't have. Missing a good lead by a few hours can mean losing it to someone faster.

Who it fits

Freelancers or small agencies who rely on Reddit as a source of new paid client work.

How it works

  1. Every five minutes, the system checks Reddit for freelance-related posts
  2. It filters out posts that aren't paid job opportunities
  3. It compares new posts against what's already been logged to skip duplicates
  4. Each new unique job post is saved to a spreadsheet
  5. A Telegram alert with the job details and link is sent right away
What you get

Fresh paid gigs spotted the moment they post

You get an instant Telegram alert with the link the moment a new paid freelance job appears on Reddit.

What you get

A running spreadsheet log of freelance job leads and an instant Telegram alert for each new one.

What you need

A Reddit account with API access, a Google account, and a Telegram bot.

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.
