Frequently asked questions
Isn't this spammy?
It only captures public posts that express intent — you still reach out like a human. Used well, it's timely and helpful; used to blast links, it isn't. Keep outreach genuine.
How do I stop duplicate leads?
De-duplicate on the Reddit post ID or author before Step 3, and upsert in Google Sheets keyed on a unique field.
