The problem it solves

Manually searching Reddit for what people are saying about a topic means scrolling through endless threads and copying the useful bits yourself. By the time you have gathered enough to be useful, the moment may have passed.

Who it fits

Marketers, researchers, and product teams who track what people are saying on Reddit about a topic or brand.

How it works

  1. You submit a keyword and, optionally, a specific subreddit
  2. The system searches Reddit and filters for recent, popular posts
  3. It pulls the most upvoted comments from each matching post
  4. Everything is organized into a clean, readable report
What you get

Conversations you understand before deciding anything

You get a clean report of the most popular Reddit posts and comments on any keyword or subreddit you choose.

What you get

A structured report of the most relevant Reddit posts and top comments for your search.

What you need

A Reddit developer 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.
