Beforegeneric AI agent
You could browse Reddit manually and look for discussions related to your product category. There are subreddits dedicated to different topics, and you might find relevant conversations there. You'd need to spend time searching and reading through threads to understand what people are saying. This gives you real unfiltered feedback from actual users. It's pretty manual though. Some of the data might be old or not super relevant to your specific product. You could pick out interesting quotes to use in your marketing.
Afterwith Reddit Fetch Skill
REDDIT RESEARCH RESULTS QUERY: Product category research for project management tools Subreddits searched: r/productivity, r/webdev, r/startups, r/EntrepreneurRidge Time frame: last 90 days Discussions found: 47 relevant threads MAJOR THEMES (ranked by frequency) 1. PAIN POINT: Notification overload (24 mentions) Example comment: "I turned off all Slack notifications because I was losing 4 hours/day to interruptions. Now I check once an hour manually." Implication: Feature opportunity - smart notification batching 2. FRUSTRATION: Learning curve / setup friction (18 mentions) Example: "Spent 6 hours configuring the tool, still not happy with workflow" Implication: Onboarding is make-or-break, not a nice-to-have 3. DECISION FACTOR: "Does it work offline?" (12 mentions) Example: "Lost all data when internet cut out. Switched tools immediately." Implication: Emphasize offline-first architecture in positioning 4. COMPLAINT: Mobile app feels like afterthought (8 mentions) Example: "Desktop version solid. Mobile forces me to use desktop for important tasks." Implication: Mobile parity matters for adoption 5. POSITIVE: Integration ecosystem (14 approving comments) Example: "Best tool we found because it connects to Jira and Slack natively" Implication: Highlight integrations prominently in marketing LANGUAGE & PHRASING (direct from Reddit) • Users say "simple" not "elegant" or "intuitive" • They value "reliable" and "predictable" over "powerful" • Common complaint structure: "Task X should take 2 clicks, takes 7" COMPETITOR MENTIONS Tool A: praised for speed, criticized for limited integrations Tool B: popular in r/webdev, criticized for pricing model SURPRISES • Enterprise teams active on r/startups (not expecting this) • Solo founders avoid tools altogether (solving manually instead) • Teams testing 2-3 products in parallel (decision time: 4-6 weeks) Raw thread links + full quotes available in accompanying dataset file
