We built MarkGroww because we had the alerts and we were not using them.
That is the whole origin story. We were monitoring Reddit for our own product, the keyword tool worked exactly as advertised, and the Slack channel filled up with matches. Job postings. News. Someone using our category name in passing. A genuinely good thread, occasionally, usually spotted a day after it stopped mattering.
The channel was muted within a month. Not because monitoring was the wrong idea, but because a raw match is not a lead, and turning a match into a reply took more attention than we had on any given Tuesday.
So the product is shaped around that gap rather than around coverage.
What it does
Three things, in order.
It watches the communities you choose rather than everything. You pick the subreddits, you write the keywords, and it scans continuously.
It reads each match and scores it. A language model looks at the actual thread and rates how well it fits what you sell, so a post asking for a recommendation in your category ranks above a post that happens to contain your competitor’s name in a funding headline. You set the threshold. Only what clears it reaches Slack. This is the part that decides whether the channel is still alive in month six.
It drafts a reply for the ones that clear. In context, for that specific thread, referencing what the person actually asked. A starting point that a human then edits.
What it will not do
It will not post anything. There is no setting for that, and there will not be one.
This is the design decision people push back on most, so it is worth explaining. Automated posting on Reddit fails in a specific and expensive way. The account gets banned, which is annoying. Then, in the bad cases, a moderator adds your brand name to an automod filter, and every future mention of your company in that subreddit gets removed, including mentions by actual customers who like you. That is not a setback you recover from by making a new account.
The draft exists to remove the blank page, not to remove the person. Every reply gets read and edited by someone before it goes anywhere. That review step is also where the comment picks up the specific detail that makes it credible, which no model reliably supplies.
It also will not find you more threads than exist. If your category generates four real buying conversations a week, this tool will find those four faster and score them accurately, and that is the ceiling. Reddit does not scale with budget. We would rather say that plainly than let anyone discover it after paying.
Who it is not for
If you are pre-launch and still working out who your buyer is, the scoring has nothing to score against. Go read communities manually first. There is a method for that in how to find your target audience on Reddit.
If you track one keyword, your own brand name, a simple alert tool does that for less money and less setup. We compare the options honestly, including where we lose, in GummySearch vs Syften vs MarkGroww.
If you want a channel that runs without you, we are the wrong tool, on purpose.
Getting started
Point it at your site. The scan reads your pages, works out what you sell, and comes back with live threads and a fit score for each one, in about thirty seconds. No card, no account.
That first scan is also the honest evaluation. If the threads it finds are not ones you would have wanted to reply to, you have learned something useful for free and you should not buy anything.
Common questions
How does the scoring actually work?
A model reads the full thread, not just the matched phrase, and judges whether the author is describing a problem your product addresses and whether they appear to be looking for a solution. A recommendation request scores high. A passing mention scores low. You choose the cutoff for what reaches Slack.
Is monitoring Reddit allowed?
Reading public posts is ordinary use. The risk in this category lives entirely in what you post afterwards, which is why approval is mandatory rather than optional here.
Which communities does it cover?
The ones you add. We do not ship a fixed list, because the right set depends completely on who you sell to and a default list would be wrong for almost everyone.
How long until it is worth anything?
The first qualified thread usually shows up within a couple of weeks, since it depends on someone asking the right question rather than on you building anything. The search traffic from indexed comments takes months, and then it does not stop.
