Reddit monitoring
Reddit monitoring that tells you which threads to answer.
Overhear searches Reddit for your keywords every hour, keeps only the posts that contain them, and sorts each one: a question to answer, a complaint to fix, a buyer asking for recommendations.
Reddit doesn't notify you
Unless someone tags your account, a thread about your product never reaches you.
Reddit search is loose
It returns posts that don't contain the word, and posts about something else with the same name.
Threads close fast
Most threads get their answers in the first day or two. A helpful reply after that is buried.
How Overhear does it
Exact matches only
A post is kept only when its title, text or link contains the keyword, and stored once however often it is found.
Sorted and ranked
Claude types each post (question, complaint, bug report, praise, buying intent, misinformation) and flags the urgent ones.
Reddit alerts by email
One email after a scan with the posts that need action, sent to everyone in your organization.
Replies that fit Reddit
Draft reply answers the question first and discloses that you work on the product. Clicks on its link arrive tagged utm_medium=reddit.
Leads on Reddit
Track phrases like an alternative to a competitor and get posts scored for fit and buying intent.
What it costs
One keyword on Reddit only, every hour: about 720 credits a month, $1.20 at the $10 pack rate.
Prepaid credits, no subscription, no keyword cap. Credits never expire and a failed search costs nothing.
Questions
Can I monitor only Reddit?
Yes. Sources can be turned off per keyword under Keywords; a source that is off is not searched and costs nothing.
Do people need to tag me on Reddit?
No. Overhear searches for the words. A post counts when its title, text or link contains your keyword.
Can I track subreddits instead of keywords?
No. Overhear searches all of Reddit for your keywords, and Claude hides posts that are about something else.
Is there a free trial?
Every new account gets free credits to start, and a Reddit search costs one credit. No card needed to sign up.
Does Overhear monitor Reddit comments?
No. Each scan searches Reddit posts from the last week and matches the title, text or link. Comments are not searched, so a mention deep in a thread is missed. Hacker News scans do include comments.
Is Reddit monitoring real-time?
No. The fastest cadence is hourly, so a post can be up to an hour old when it reaches you. Scan now runs a search immediately.
Does it do sentiment analysis?
Yes. Claude records whether each post is positive, neutral or negative toward your product and sorts it by type: question, complaint, bug report, praise, buyer asking for recommendations, misinformation or competitor mention.
Can I get Reddit alerts in Slack?
Not natively. Alerts go out by email and phone push, and a signed webhook POSTs every new mention, so any automation that accepts a webhook can forward it to Slack.
