Reddit Insights

This connects Claude to reddit-insights.com's semantic search API to find what people are actually saying on Reddit right now. Unlike keyword search, it understands intent and can filter by engagement metrics. Works best for product comparisons ("Notion vs Obsidian"), pain point discovery, and side hustle research where relevance scores hit 0.70+. Weaker on abstract concepts or non-English queries. Three modes: quick (top 5 results), standard (synthesized themes), and deep (full competitive intelligence). The honest tradeoff is 12-25 second response times, but you're getting live data across millions of posts instead of manually browsing subreddits for two hours. Free tier available, requires API key from reddit-insights.com.

Reddit Insights MCP

Semantic search across millions of Reddit posts. Unlike keyword search, this understands intent and meaning.

Mode

Detect from context or ask: "Quick pulse, full research, or strategic intelligence report?"

Mode	What you get	Best for
`quick`	1 query, top 5 insights, no synthesis	Fast pain point check, content spark
`standard`	3–5 queries, full synthesis with themes and patterns	Product validation, content research
`deep`	Multi-angle research + sentiment analysis + content angles + competitive intelligence	Business decisions, campaign strategy

Default: standard — use quick for a fast read. Use deep if they're validating a product idea or building a content strategy.

Why This vs ChatGPT?

Problem with ChatGPT: It has no real-time Reddit access. It can't search current discussions, can't filter by engagement, and can't show you what people are saying RIGHT NOW about your topic.
