Use Cases

Social listening meets AI-powered action

Discover how marketing and support teams use AI agents to monitor Reddit conversations, engage communities, and extract customer insights without manual browsing.

Brand Monitoring Across Reddit Communities

Your marketing lead asks the agent to find recent Reddit discussions about your product. The AI Agent searches across subreddits for your brand name, retrieves matching posts sorted by recency, and summarizes the sentiment. Your team spots a trending complaint thread early and responds before it escalates, turning potential PR issues into customer wins.

Automated Content Publishing to Niche Subreddits

Your content team has a new blog post to share. The AI Agent first checks the target subreddit's posting rules to ensure compliance, then creates a link post with an engaging title and appropriate flair. The content reaches your target community instantly. Your team skips the manual posting workflow and focuses on creating more content.

Competitive Intelligence From Community Discussions

A product manager asks what people are saying about a competitor's latest release. The AI Agent searches Reddit for the competitor's name, retrieves top posts from the past week, and fetches comment threads with user feedback. The PM gets a curated summary of community reactions without spending hours browsing threads manually.

FAQs

Frequently Asked Questions

How does the AI agent search for posts across Reddit?

The agent uses Reddit's search endpoint to query across all subreddits by keyword. You can control the sort order (relevance, hot, new, top, comments) and restrict results to specific subreddits or search broadly. Results include post titles, scores, author details, and comment counts for quick scanning.

Can the agent post to subreddits that require post flair?

Yes. The agent first fetches available link flair templates for the target subreddit using Reddit's flair API. Once it has the valid flair IDs, it includes the appropriate flair when creating the post. This prevents rejection from subreddits with mandatory flair requirements.

What Reddit OAuth scopes does Tars request?

Tars requests identity, read, vote, submit, flair, and edit scopes. These allow the agent to read posts and comments, create new submissions, apply flair, and edit existing content. You authorize via Reddit's standard OAuth flow and can revoke access from your Reddit preferences at any time.

Does Tars store Reddit post or comment data?

No. All Reddit data is fetched in real time during conversations and used only within the active session. Post content, comments, user profiles, and subreddit information are not persisted in any Tars database. Each query hits Reddit's API live.

Can the agent monitor specific subreddits for brand mentions?

The agent can search subreddits for specific keywords at any time during a conversation. While it does not run continuous background monitoring, you can configure your agent to proactively search for brand-related terms whenever team members request a check, effectively creating on-demand social listening.

How is this different from using Reddit's notification system?

Reddit notifications alert you to replies on your own posts. Tars AI Agents proactively search the entire platform for any mention of your brand, product, or competitors. The agent also takes action, retrieving full comment threads, summarizing sentiment, and drafting responses, all within a single conversation.

Can the agent reply to comments on existing Reddit posts?

Yes. The agent uses Reddit's comment endpoint to post replies to any accessible post or comment thread. You provide the parent ID (post or comment), and the agent submits a Markdown-formatted reply. This works for community engagement, support responses, or discussion participation.

What happens if the agent tries to post in a subreddit with posting restrictions?

If a subreddit has karma requirements, approval restrictions, or mandatory flair, the agent reports the specific error back in the conversation. For flair requirements, it automatically fetches available flairs and retries. For other restrictions, it alerts your team so they can take the appropriate manual action.
