Why make this?
- Google results today are terrible. They are full of sponsored articles and bullshit listicles churned out by SEO farms who often don't know what they're talking about.
- Amazon is full of fake reviews. There are too many shitty 4.5 star products.
- Reddit is one of the last bastion of genuine online conversations. Thanks to its strong moderation and community. That's why people add "Reddit" to their Google searches.
- But researching on Reddit is cumbersome. You need to cross-reference multiple threads and piece together comments.
- I used to spend hours on Reddit researching products. I wanted to make this easier.
How it works?
- Regular scouring of Reddit to ensure comments are fresh
- Comments are analyzed and categorized with AI + humans
- Products are ranked by positive comments for a quick overview
- The full Reddit discussions are always linked as receipts and if you need more context.
