How it works

How Reddit monitoring works in Rumoro

Three steps, set up once in the dashboard or with one API call. After that there's nothing to watch.

Rumoro searches Reddit every 30 minutes

Across every subreddit through Reddit’s official API. Each new post is scored against how you describe your company.

  • r/SaaS · Linear vs Jira for a team of 12…81

The threads that matter reach you

Each alert sets its own relevance bar and can filter on sentiment and intent, from buying intent and comparisons to bug reports, churn and praise, then posts to Slack, Telegram, email, a webhook or your agent.

Switching

Coming from GummySearch or F5Bot

What carries over, and what works differently in Rumoro.

  • GummySearch

    GummySearch closed at the end of November 2025. If you used it to follow keywords on Reddit, Rumoro does that job, scores each post against your company and sends it to Slack, Telegram, email, a webhook or your agent.

  • F5Bot

    F5Bot emails you every time a keyword shows up on Reddit, Hacker News or Lobsters, relevant or not. Rumoro reads Reddit and 15 more sources, scores each post against your company and sends only the ones worth answering to Slack, Telegram, a webhook or your agent, on every account.

    The post and its subreddit

    The title and text with the author linked, and the subreddit it was posted in.

Beyond alerts

Reddit tracking beyond the alert

See where you stand against competitors, who's talking about you, and which keywords are worth their cost.

Your share of voice

See how often Reddit talks about you compared with your competitors, week by week.

The redditors behind the mentions

Each redditor who mentions you gets a profile with your tags, your notes and every post they've written about you.

Posts that link to you

Every link in a matched post is kept, so you can see which threads send people to your docs or pricing.

Subreddit filters

Keep only the subreddits that matter, or leave the noisy ones out for the whole workspace.

Keyword health

Find out which keywords bring useful threads and which mostly bring noise, with suggestions on what to exclude.

Needs attention

Rumoro checks every hour for sudden spikes, a wave of negative posts, noisy keywords or a channel that stopped delivering.

Digests for quieter keywords

Smaller keywords can send one daily or weekly summary to Slack, Telegram or email rather than an alert for every thread.

Views, filters and export

Narrow the feed by sentiment, intent, language or redditor, keep it as a saved view and download it as CSV.

Reddit MCP, API, SDKs and CLI

A Reddit MCP server for the threads that matter

Rumoro's MCP server gives Claude, Cursor or Codex your Reddit mentions with their scores and links, with no Reddit API keys. Your agent triages them and drafts replies for you to review.

Coverage, alerts and cost

Reddit monitoring questions

What is Reddit monitoring?

Reddit monitoring means searching Reddit for your brand, your competitors or a topic on a schedule, keeping each new post, and getting told about the threads that need you. A monitoring tool runs those searches for you and filters out posts that only share your keyword.

How do I set up Reddit keyword alerts?

Add a keyword and Rumoro searches every subreddit for it every 30 minutes. Each new post is scored for relevance, sentiment and intent, and an alert rule sends the ones you care about to Slack, Telegram, email, a webhook or your AI agent. Quieter keywords can arrive as a daily or weekly digest instead.

How do I track keywords on Reddit without the noise?

Let the relevance score do the filtering. A post that only contains your word scores low, and one where someone asks whether to use your product scores high. An alert can require a minimum score, a sentiment or an intent such as buying intent, so your channel only sees the threads worth answering.

Does Rumoro monitor Reddit comments?

No. Rumoro reads Reddit through its official Data API, which can search posts but not comments. You get post titles and text from every subreddit.

Which subreddits does Rumoro watch?

All of them. In your workspace settings you can keep only the subreddits you care about, or leave some out, and every mention keeps the subreddit it came from.

How often does Rumoro check Reddit?

Every 30 minutes for each keyword, up to the newest 100 posts per check. A new keyword also reads back the newest 10 from the last 30 days, billed as normal mentions.

Is there a free Reddit monitoring tool?

F5Bot has a free plan for 5 keywords that emails you raw keyword matches, up to 2 hours after they appear. Rumoro starts every account with $5.80 of credit and no card, enough for your first keyword for a month and 100 mentions on top. After that it's $5 a keyword a month and $0.008 per match, with no subscription.

How do I search Reddit for mentions of my brand?

Reddit's own search engine finds posts with your name when you look, but it doesn't keep watching. Add your brand as a keyword in Rumoro and every subreddit is searched for it every 30 minutes, so you get alerts for Reddit without searching again. Each new post is scored and the relevant ones reach you where you work.

Is Rumoro a GummySearch alternative?

For keyword tracking, yes. GummySearch, or Gummy Search as many people type it, closed at the end of November 2025. Rumoro follows your keywords across Reddit and other platforms, scores each post and sends the relevant ones where you work.

Is Rumoro an F5Bot alternative?

Yes, for teams that want fewer and better alerts. F5Bot emails every keyword match from Reddit, Hacker News and Lobsters. Rumoro scores each Reddit post against your company, sends only the relevant ones to Slack, Telegram, a webhook or your AI agent, and follows the same keyword on 15 more sources, with an API and an MCP server on every account.

Do I need my own Reddit API key?

No. Rumoro collects through Reddit's official API with its own access. You don't register an app or connect a Reddit account, and nothing is posted in your name.

Is the Reddit API free?

Only for non-commercial use, within Reddit's limit of 100 requests a minute and with a registered app. Commercial use, such as monitoring a brand for a business, needs Reddit's written approval and a separate agreement. Rumoro collects through its own access, so you don't need an API key or an agreement of your own.

Can I use Rumoro for Reddit marketing and lead generation?

Yes, if you do it the Reddit way. Track the phrases people use when they ask for recommendations or complain about a competitor, and Rumoro sends you those threads while they're still active. Reply as a person, be open about who you work for and follow each subreddit's rules. Rumoro never posts for you.

Can I get Reddit alerts in Slack?

Yes. Connect Slack once and each alert rule posts its matches to a channel with the headline, sentiment and intent, the post and its subreddit, the AI relevance score, a note on why it matters and buttons to open the thread, mark it handled or mute the author.

Can I track a subreddit or a Reddit user?

Rumoro follows keywords. To focus on certain subreddits, keep only those in your workspace settings. Every redditor who mentions you appears in your audience with all their mentions, and you can mute an author in any channel.

Is there a Reddit MCP server for brand mentions?

Rumoro's MCP server works as one, with no Reddit API keys. Claude, Cursor, Codex or any MCP client can search, filter and triage your Reddit mentions next to every other platform, then draft the replies.

How much does Reddit monitoring cost?

$5 per keyword a month, charged by the day, plus $0.008 per matched post. There's no subscription. You top up a balance, and a new account starts with $5.80 of credit and no card.
