    Congrats on shipping Redarly! 🚀 The AI-powered approach to Reddit engagement is smart, especially for scaling affiliate marketing.

    I'm building DAC Compliance Operating Layer (automating regulatory decisions), and your mention of "AI replies" raises an interesting question about compliance in AI-generated content.

    How do you handle transparency/disclosure when AI generates promotional replies? Is there a built-in mechanism to flag AI-generated content to stay compliant with platform rules and FTC guidelines?

    Great work on the Chrome extension approach - lowering friction for users is key!

    1. 1

      Thank you! I'm not aware of any limitations on Reddit regarding AI replies. The reply is sent manually (it's not a bot), so I hope it's not a breach of any rule.

      1. 0

        Thanks for clarifying the manual send process - that's an important distinction from full automation!

        You're right that Reddit doesn't explicitly ban "AI-assisted" replies currently, but the compliance angle I mentioned is more about:

        1. Transparency expectations: Some subreddits (like r/technology or r/askreddit) have rules requiring disclosure of affiliate links or promotional intent. An AI writing the reply doesn't change the need for those disclosures.

        2. Future-proofing: As AI-generated content becomes more prevalent, platforms like Reddit, Facebook, and Google are developing policies around AI disclosure. Building in compliance features now could be a competitive advantage.

        3. User trust: Even if technically allowed, users might feel deceived if they discover a "human-seeming" reply was AI-generated without disclosure.

        Your point about manual sending is valid though - it puts the human in the loop for final approval. Maybe that's actually your compliance feature: "Human-verified AI suggestions" vs fully automated replies.

        Appreciate the discussion! This is exactly why communities like Indie Hackers are valuable.

        1. 1

          Np. You are right, as the solution doesn't force the use of an AI reply. Its primary function is to monitor Reddit with AI; users are responsible for following any subreddit rules and adjusting their replies accordingly.

          1. 1

            That's an excellent clarification and actually touches on a key concept in compliance tech: "compliance-by-design" vs "user responsibility."

            You're absolutely right that the tool gives users flexibility rather than forcing AI replies. For many use cases, that's the perfect balance!

            The monitoring function itself is where interesting compliance questions emerge:

            - Automated monitoring of subreddits (even without automated replies) might still have implications under some platform ToS

            - Data privacy regulations (like GDPR/CCPA) could apply to the monitoring/data collection aspect

            - Competitive intelligence gathering has its own legal boundaries

            Your approach of putting users in control is actually quite aligned with enterprise compliance solutions where the system provides recommendations but final decisions require human approval.

            This discussion actually reinforces why tools like yours (and compliance systems like what I'm building) need to exist - the regulatory landscape for digital tools is getting complex fast! 🙌

            1. 1

              Thank you for your feedback, it's very useful.
              I'm not a specialist in this field, but I don't think the solution consumes Reddit resources, as it doesn't use the Reddit API, and the checks are done with a minimum one-hour frequency interval on the publicly available Reddit search pages.
              It's good to know there are policies I should be aware of.

              1. 1

                checking public pages at hourly intervals does sound reasonable for resource consideration. Appreciate the discussion and best of luck with Redactly!

    Congrats on the launch 👏

    quick question — did you already set any hard limits on LLM/API spend?

    I’ve seen a few indie AI apps get hit by agent loops early on.

    1. 1

      Thank you. You bring your own API key and choose the model. I didn't set any limits as the spending is quite affordable.

  3. 1

    Congratulations on your launch. It looks impressive! What channels are you exploring to attract early users?

    1. 1

      Thank you. I'm thinking of sharing the link on Reddit. Also, I've posted on LinkedIn.

      1. 1

        That sounds like a solid plan. Reddit can be a powerful platform if used carefully. I offer a small service on Fiverr, primarily assisting early-stage AI and SaaS products in testing their visibility on Reddit in a way that isn't spammy. If you're interested, I can share the link or provide some pointers here.

        1. 1

          Thank you for your offer. I have a referral program in place. 50% revshare for life. The link is on the extension page.

          1. 1

            Thank you for sharing that information; it makes sense. Referral programs are excellent for long-term growth.

            My main focus is helping with initial visibility on Reddit, putting the product in front of the right communities in a natural way, so early users can discover it and start discussing it. This early traction often leads to improved conversion rates for referral programs later on.

            If you're open to it, I would be happy to suggest a small Reddit testing approach you could try (no pressure at all).
