I've been doing Reddit organic for my own SaaS since early this year and got addicted to it as a channel. Better intent than ads, free, and the threads keep ranking on Google for months. Problem is the actual work of finding good threads is brutal.
I was spending 1 to 2 hours every morning just scrolling. Most threads in my target subs were useless. Either they didn't rank on Google so nobody would ever read my reply, or the OP was venting instead of looking for a solution, or the thread was 4 days old and already buried. By the time I'd found 5 worth replying to, half my morning was gone and I hadn't written a single comment.
I kept thinking the actual painful part wasn't the writing, it was the finding. So I started hacking on something for myself. A scraper that pulled threads from my target subs, scored them by buying intent (not just topic relevance, that's a different thing), and surfaced the 5 to 10 worth my time each morning. Then it would draft a starting point I could rewrite in my own voice. I'd still post manually from my own accounts because that's the whole point.
It worked well enough that I cleaned it up and shipped it as Reppit AI (already 70+ users). Full disclosure, I'm the founder, this is the pitch, but I'm trying to be honest about what it does and doesn't do. It does not post for you. It does not manage your accounts. It does not promise you'll go viral. It just cuts the research time from 2 hours to 20 minutes and tells you which threads are actually worth a reply.
The thing I underestimated when building it was how much the intent scoring would matter vs simple keyword matching. A thread can match all your keywords and still be worthless because the OP isn't looking to buy anything. That's the part I'm still iterating on the most.
Anyway, if any of you are doing Reddit organic and have figured out something I haven't, I'd genuinely love to hear it.
