SocialGTM for Reddit
Reddit is where people ask for recommendations in detail and compare options in public. A SocialGTM agent searches Reddit for the posts your job needs and drafts a reply that answers the question first.
How it finds posts
Agents search Reddit by keyword, so they find the conversation in whichever subreddit it happens. Add competitor names to catch people comparing tools, exclude terms to skip what you never want to answer, and a post age limit to stay with threads that are still active.
Agents check for new posts as often as every 1 hour on Scale, 2 hours on Growth and 6 hours on Starter.
How replies get posted
Approve a draft and the reply is copied and the thread opens in the Reddit account you are signed in to. You paste it and press Post, so it goes out as you. Posting reminders bring you a few replies at a time, spaced out so the account never posts in a burst. Nothing is posted until you approve it, and you can edit any draft first.
What you connect
Enter your Reddit username so SocialGTM can recognise your replies after they are posted. It never asks for your Reddit password.
Reddit’s Responsible Builder Policy requires approval before API access and asks automated accounts to be registered and labelled as apps. SocialGTM reads public posts, and you post each approved reply yourself instead. Reddit Help: Responsible Builder Policy.
What Reddit’s rules say
Reddit's Rule 2: “Participate authentically in communities where you have a personal interest, and do not spam or engage in disruptive behaviors.” It sets no daily number. Each subreddit adds its own rules, often on account age, karma and self-promotion, so read them before you reply. Reddit Content Policy.
The pace SocialGTM keeps
- A new account (under 30 days or under 100 comment karma) gets 3 a day, at least 10 minutes apart. Growing accounts get 5 a day, at least 5 minutes apart, and accounts over 180 days with 1,000 karma get 8 a day, at least 3 minutes apart.
- A new account mentions nothing of its own for its first 14 days, and the same website is never linked twice within 2 days.
- Link shorteners are blocked, and a thread has to be at least 5 minutes old before a reply goes out, since an instant reply looks automated.
- If the account looks shadowbanned or suspended, posting stops until it is clear again.
The reasons behind each limit, with sources, are in How to reply on Reddit without getting shadowbanned.
