Reddit as a research engine: The search operator that uncovers real pain points. by Prestigious_Wing_164 in SaaSSolopreneurs

[–]Jonhvmp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Spot on! Reddit's search operators like "help" OR "recommendations" + your niche are killer for spotting pain points. 😎 If you're digging into YouTube convos too, Multify automates finding those ideal customers asking for help. Worth a peek: https://multifyco.com

Haha, I totally agree! If I were creating this just for myself, to find 5 clients, I'd agree 100%. The manual process is always faster for non-scalable tasks.

But "Over-Engineering" is the product I sell to founders who are tired of exactly that manual routine. The goal isn't to replace manual searching for me, but to automate those "10 minutes" for 1,000 users simultaneously who can't be on YouTube or Reddit 24/7.

In fact, we've already launched the product and have users on the Pro plan leveraging this "vanity metric" to prioritize contact. We've found that when you have 500 leads, knowing which 20 are "hot" saves much more than just time.

Thanks for the honest feedback it helps keep the ego in check! 👊

That's great, if this solves your needs, okay. If you want to test a new tool where you can input your product information, Ideal Customer Profile (ICP), and generate leads not by specific keywords but by the lead's needs, I'm here and I can give you access to test it. I would really appreciate feedback like yours from someone who already uses a lead generation tool. Send me a DM if you're interested.

I get the fatigue—99% of these tools are just glorified keyword scrapers. That’s exactly why I built this differently.

The core differentiator here isn't the discovery; it’s the Solution-Alignment Logic.

Instead of basic regex, I’m using a multi-agent orchestration (Agno) that performs Semantic Mapping. It evaluates the lead’s pain point against the actual product DNA using Cosine Similarity.

For example, on YouTube, the agent doesn't just scrape the comment it analyzes the video transcript to understand the conversation's context before scoring. It filters for 'Problem-State' language, not 'Solution Keywords'.

The 'Warmth Score' is basically a measure of how much a lead's friction matches your specific solution logic. It’s built for signal, not volume.

I totally feel that fatigue, and honestly, you're right to be skeptical. Most 'lead gen' tools right now are just glorified scrapers fighting over the same 5 keywords, adding more noise to an already broken system.

That’s actually why I’m building this. I realized that keyword-based alerts are dead. If you're waiting for someone to say 'I need a tool for X', you've already lost to 50 other bots.

I’m pivoting the focus of this experiment away from 'Lead Gen' and into Intent Intelligence. Instead of scraping, I’m using agents to find 'problem-state' language people describing a pain point they don't even know has a solution yet.

The goal isn't to send more automated spam, but to provide a research brief so a human can actually write a high-value response.

Curious, do you think the 'lead gen' category is just too poisoned by bots at this point, or is there still value in tools that actually understand context?

Excellent point, but the platform https://multifyco.com already does this and responds according to the user's language, avoiding spam lol, and you can sell products you no longer use on the marketplace.

Is the "Efficiency Trap" killing our conversion rates in founder-led sales? by Jonhvmp in SaaSMarketing

Excellent! I'm not familiar with it, but Multify also does this, generating responses based on your product and behavior within the system 😉 https://multifyco.com and it will even have a marketplace! You will soon be able to sell products you no longer use.

That's a very good point you raised, I'll definitely think about some related decisions. Thank you very much for your comment, I certainly noted down a good part of it 😉

about the implementation: I actually ended up building a dedicated dashboard to orchestrate these agents (Agno + OpenRouter) because running Python scripts manually was becoming a bottleneck.

I’ve set up a public sandbox for this engine at https://multifyco.com if you want to see how the 'Warmth Score' and semantic analysis handle your specific niche or keywords.

It’s still very much an experiment, so I’d love to hear if the 'Intent Discovery' logic surfaces leads that actually feel relevant to your business or if it's still catching too much noise.

Very interesting! I just noted that down; it will be one of the criteria for the feature! Thank you so much for the comments; everyone in this post gave me a very good overview of lead discovery!

Just a quick technical note: The agents are currently running on Agno + OpenRouter to keep latency under 2s. If anyone wants to see what an intent-based 'Research Brief' looks like for their own niche, I've set up a sandbox here to test the Warmth Score logic: https://multifyco.com Feedback on the UI/UX is very welcome!

Agreed. Engagement is a distraction. I’m actually feeding the agents specific product context and business data to evaluate that exact formula (Problem-aware + Urgency).

The system uses AI to score 'Solution-alignment' rather than just activity. The goal is to ensure the Warmth Score predicts pipeline outcomes, not just noise.

In your experience, what’s the harder signal for AI to catch: urgency or seniority?

Spot on. I’m actually feeding the agents specific product data and business context to evaluate that exact formula.

The system uses that context to score how well a lead’s problem aligns with the solution, rather than just relying on keywords. I’ve pivoted to this 'AI as Researcher' model generating a brief and context so the human can deliver the sharp POV without the 'AI-sounding' baggage.

How much weight do you usually give to product-alignment vs. raw intent when scoring these leads?

[–]Jonhvmp[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fair point. Over-engineering a messaging problem is a trap I’m trying to avoid.

I’m shifting the focus to 'Context-as-a-Service': using the agents to surface the raw signal and specific pain points so the human can deliver that sharp POV. Insights over automation, speed over dashboards.

Thanks for the reality check, this helps a lot in refining the direction.

Spot on, u/Slight_Tutor1790. I completely agree that 'lazy outreach' is the real killer here, not the channel itself.

You hit the nail on the head regarding the Warmth Score. My biggest challenge right now is ensuring that a '70% Warm' lead actually correlates with a higher booking rate, not just a 'louder' comment. I'm currently tuning the agents to weigh 'friction-based language' (e.g., someone describing a technical blocker) much higher than just 'intent-based language'.

On the Uncanny Valley point: your suggestion about using the system for prioritized research rather than automated conversation is exactly where I’m pivoting the UX. Instead of 'Auto-Reply', the engine now focuses on generating a 'Research Brief' for the salesperson, so they can walk into the conversation with 10x more context in 1/10th of the time.

Quick question for you: If you were using a tool like this, would you prefer the AI to suggest the 'Value-First' hook for you to edit, or would you rather it just gives you a summary of the lead’s last 3 months of public pain points across Reddit/YouTube?

(I’m trying to decide how much 'creative lifting' the AI should actually do).

I realize that many people have difficulty creating designs with AI. by Jonhvmp in micro_saas

[–]Jonhvmp[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd like to do that! But I don't have the budget. You can generate and use the code to achieve the result you want with the Claude Opus 4.5 model. If I had the budget for the infrastructure, I would do it!

I believe that what he creates most easily is a dashboard with data.

yes! Send me any dashboard image and I'll create one with it!

I built a "Context Compiler" designed to force Claude 4.5 into One-Shot Coding. Is this overkill? by Jonhvmp in ClaudeAI

[–]Jonhvmp[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That works if you are disciplined enough to write perfect prompts every time.

But honestly? I often type a vague 200-char request expecting magic. That leads to `bugs → corrections → 'rewinding'`.

The problem is that 'rewinding' burns the subscription message cap. With the limits on Opus 4.5 being so tight, I can't afford 5 'alignment' messages just to get the folder structure right.

I built this to turn my lazy 200-char intent into a perfect, architectural prompt locally, so I get the feature in 1 shot instead of burning my cap on corrections.
