Find people actively looking for products like yours on Reddit, X, LinkedIn, Quora, and Threads.
Why it matters
Scores each mention by buying intent and generates a draft reply, so you spend time on leads most likely to convert rather than filtering raw search results manually.
Typical use cases
- Finding Reddit threads where users ask for CRM recommendations
- Spotting X posts from people frustrated with a competitor tool
- Monitoring LinkedIn for buyers evaluating project management software
- Tracking Quora questions about referral program software
- Getting draft replies to high-intent mentions before the conversation goes cold
