Quick start

How to check brand mentions on Reddit

Paste a brand name, get recent public Reddit mentions. No Reddit login, no signup for the free tier.

  1. Step 1

    Enter a brand or competitor

    Use the product name people actually type on Reddit: “Notion”, “Linear”, “HubSpot”, not a slogan.

  2. Step 2

    Pick sort and timeframe

    Newest for fresh chatter, top for high-signal threads. Past week is a good default for mention checks.

  3. Step 3

    Skim the mention list

    Each row is a public post with title, subreddit, score, and comment count from the production Reddit search endpoint.

Why use it

Public Reddit mentions for brand spot checks

Use this when you need a quick read on where a brand is showing up, not survey-scale sampling.

01

Spot checks, not a listening stack

Paste a brand, see where it showed up recently. Useful before a launch review or competitor readout.

02

Communities, not just titles

Mentions include the subreddit so you can see which communities are talking, not only that a hit exists.

03

Same API underneath

This page calls GET /v1/reddit/search with Cloudflare Turnstile. Paid keys unlock pagination and scheduled sweeps.

Query tips

What to type for useful mention results

Vague category words return noise. Exact brand names return posts you can skim.

Exact product names

“Figma” beats “design tool”. Exact names pull mentions; category words pull general discussion.

Competitor pairs

Search each competitor separately, then compare volume and communities week over week.

Noisy short brands

Add a category word when the name collides with common English (e.g. “Linear project management”).

FAQ

Brand mention checker FAQ

What does this brand mention checker do?

It searches public Reddit posts for your brand or competitor and returns titles, subreddits, scores, and comment counts. Same data as GET /v1/reddit/search.

How is this different from the Reddit research tool?

This page is for brand/competitor mention spot checks (defaults to newest + past week). Reddit research is for broader topic and audience queries.

Do I need a Reddit account?

No. The tool uses Social Fetch’s production Reddit search. Public posts only.

Does it cover X, TikTok, or YouTube?

Not on this free page. Those platforms are available on the paid search APIs. This tool demos Reddit mention checks.

What queries work best?

Exact product names. Add a category word when the brand is a common English word. One-word generics are usually too noisy.

What do sort and timeframe mean?

Sort: newest, top, or relevance. Timeframe: day, week, month, year, or all. Same filters as the paid API.

Why only one page of results?

The free tool returns the first page. Paginate with cursor on the API when you need more.

What are the free tool rate limits?

Lookups are capped per IP and gated by Turnstile. Use the API when you need volume or schedules.

Are empty searches charged on the API?

On the paid API, a completed search is billed even with zero posts. This free page does not charge credits.

Can I automate brand monitoring?

Not from this page. Call GET /v1/reddit/search on a schedule with your API key.

Need more than a spot check?

Sign up for 100 free API credits, then call these tools from your own code — no browser Turnstile in the way.
