The problem it solves

You want to keep an eye on a subreddit relevant to your business or industry, but checking it manually throughout the day is a distraction. New posts worth seeing can easily slip by unnoticed.

Who it fits

Community managers, marketers, or founders who track industry discussion on Reddit.

How it works

  1. The subreddit is checked on a regular schedule.
  2. Only posts that are new since the last check are picked out.
  3. Each new post is formatted into a short message.
  4. The message is delivered straight into your team's chat channel.
What you get

Subreddit posts you'd otherwise miss

New posts from the subreddit you care about show up directly in your team's chat.

What you get

A running feed of new subreddit posts delivered directly into your team's chat, with nothing to check manually.

What you need

A team chat account capable of receiving automated messages.

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.
