People post 'best tool for X?' threads on Reddit daily. This workflow scans target subreddits for those threads, scores them by buying intent, and delivers each match with the thread context and a suggested reply. Replies are written to be genuinely helpful first -- product mentions are included only when directly relevant to what the person asked.
Problem
High-intent Reddit threads asking for tool recommendations go stale within hours, and manual monitoring cannot keep up.
- 1.
'Best tool for X?' threads are posted daily and go stale before you find them

Relevant posts are spread across dozens of subreddits
- 3.

How it works
Configure target subreddits and keywords
Define subreddits, keywords, competitor names, and pain-point phrases to monitor. The Subreddit Research skill can help identify the best targets.
Agent scans threads and scores by intent
On schedule, the agent searches for matching threads and comments. 'Best tool for X?' and 'alternative to [competitor]?' posts score high. General discussion scores low.
Review leads and reply
Each lead includes the thread, context, and a suggested reply that answers the question helpfully. Product mentions appear only when directly relevant to what the person asked.
FAQs
