Find buyers on Reddit while you keep shipping

You find buyers on Reddit by answering the threads where they're already asking for what you built. Viewfy scouts those threads while you ship, drafts the reply, and waits for your approval before anything posts.

No autoposting. No agency retainer. A queue you clear over coffee, then back to the repo.

Why is Reddit where buyers ask before they buy?

People go to Reddit when they want a straight answer from someone who has actually used the thing. A thread titled "what do you use for this" is a buyer with a problem, mid-question, asking strangers to name a tool. If your product is the honest answer, showing up there looks more like support than marketing.

Those same threads also shape what search engines and chatbots say later. It helps the person asking today, and it sits where other buyers read for a long time afterwards. Thread scouting is the search for live threads where a buyer is asking for your category, and it's the spine of Viewfy. Everything else is what he shows up with.

How does Viewfy find the threads where buyers ask?

He reads live threads across Reddit and the other places your buyers hang out, picks the ones where someone is asking for what you built, and drops a drafted reply into your queue. You paste your URL and he works out the category from your own site. The free tier gives you 100 drafts with no card, so you can see which threads he finds before you pay anything.

A growth agent is software that runs the repeatable parts of marketing on a schedule and hands you the decisions. Viewfy's day starts at 7am. He works threads on Reddit, LinkedIn, X, Threads, Hacker News, DEV, Indie Hackers, Product Hunt, Quora, Peerlist and Facebook. Reddit gets its own post here because that's where the "what should I use" threads pile up.

What stops a drafted reply from reading like spam?

A draft needs one fact that's true of your product and nobody else's, or it stays in the queue. The reply answers the question first, in the words the thread is already using. Your product appears as a specific detail once the question has been answered. Nobody upvotes a pitch, and moderators remove them.

There's also a hard refusal list for copy that sounds machine-written. No em dashes, none of the words that give machine copy away, no recycled year-trend posts. Anything that trips it doesn't ship.

For the human side, the rules about tone and picking your subreddits are in Reddit outreach for SaaS without looking like spam. Read that before you approve your first batch.

What happens between the draft and the post?

Nothing goes out until you approve, edit or skip it. Every thread reply and every editor pitch waits in the queue for that decision. Viewfy has no autopost setting, and if you want one, it's the wrong tool for you.

That's a deliberate choice about Reddit account standing. Reddit account standing is the trust a subreddit and Reddit's own systems place in an account based on how it has behaved. Templated comments dropped across many threads are what moderators watch for, and a banned account takes your history with it. Reddit's own AI moderation changed who gets to post at all, and we covered that in how Reddit's AI moderation changed who gets to post.

The Chrome extension follows the same rule. It doesn't post, comment, upvote, follow or message on your behalf, and it doesn't read your browsing history. You open a thread, the drafted reply appears in the site's own comment field, and you decide.

Approve, edit, or skip. That's it.

A community reply tool is software that finds or drafts replies for threads on Reddit and similar sites. If you're comparing Viewfy with ReplyGuy, Okara AI or another community reply tool, ask each one the same question. Does a human see every reply before it posts? Some tools in this lane post automatically, and that trades your account for volume.

Which Viewfy plan finds the threads for you?

Viewfy Mini Max and Viewfy Pro do the finding. Viewfy Mini drafts a reply on whatever thread you already have open. Mini Max also goes out and finds the threads, so you're not the one scrolling.

Mini is $29/mo for 100 drafts a day. Mini Max is $49/mo for 500 drafts a day and does the thread finding. Pro is the full growth agent and starts with a call. Prices are current as of the day this post was published.

Start with the free tier. If it finds nothing worth answering, that tells you something about where your buyers ask, and it cost you nothing.

What do the daily post and the SEO pull request have to do with Reddit?

They give the reply something to point at. A thread reply that links to a thin landing page dies there, while one that links to a post answering the exact question keeps working. So Viewfy publishes one post a day on your own domain, with your colors, logo and search markup. He also ships SEO fixes for schema, meta, sitemaps and alt text as a pull request, which is a proposed code change you review and merge yourself, with app logic untouched.

Editor pitches work the same way as thread replies. They wait for approval, leave from your own address, and nothing is bought. As Viewfy's own FAQ puts it, posts alone are half the job. If the blog part makes you nervous about becoming a content machine, read marketing while building product without becoming a content machine.

Do Reddit replies still count if ChatGPT stopped citing Reddit?

Yes, because the person in the thread is still a buyer who asked a question, whatever a chatbot decides to cite. The reply that helps them today gets read by the next person searching the same phrase. We went through the citation change in detail in do your Reddit replies still count after ChatGPT stopped citing Reddit.

Viewfy tracks chatbot visibility and never promises it. He checks whether the crawlers ChatGPT and Claude read with can reach your site at all. A site that blocks them can't be named by them. Then he asks your buying questions monthly and tracks the visits that actually arrive, rather than a vanity score.

The guarantee covers live mentions on real sites. What a chatbot will say is something nobody honest can promise.

What does a morning look like once he's running?

One message at 7am. It tells you what changed, which drafts are waiting, and what needs a decision from you. You clear the queue, approving the good replies, editing the ones that need your voice, skipping the rest. Then you go back to shipping.

Changed your mind about that day's blog post? Reply kill to the morning message and it comes down within the minute. That's the safety valve for a founder who'd rather ship than babysit a dashboard.

Viewfy is a bad fit if you:

• want replies and pitches posted with no human approval
• need a guarantee about what ChatGPT or Claude will say about you
• plan to buy links or paid placements
• haven't shipped anything yet, so there's no live site for him to read

Everyone else can paste a URL at viewfy.ai and see what he finds. You keep shipping. He keeps the queue full.
