Hi everyone 👋

After months of working nights and weekends after my 9–5

I’m launching my first product ever! 🥳

It’s called Reddiscope

It analyzes thousands of Reddit posts and pulls out real pain points

So you can find validated product ideas in minutes

Here is a small walkthrough demo.

Also, would love your support on Product Hunt 🙏

@pobidowski Make sense, was it based on feedback or just your own tries?

[Ozan @akmandev]

I am building this for indie hackers like us so happy to connect with anyone interested 🙂

Hey there! 👋

What if I told you there is literally a telescope for Reddit posts?

Spoiler alert: It's built by me :)

And it has a great wide lens where you can see through multiple subreddits at the same time.

What I mean by that is, it filters posts down into categories like "pain points" so you don't have to spend hours finding them manually yourself.

I think 1 image tells more of a story than many words, so let me share a screenshot of Reddiscope Patterns with you.

This is one of my favorite features; it's fast and will help you build around problems worth solving by seeing real customer issues.

@andrewcairns Yeah i guess it gets better when people interact with you but still, a strange feeling

[Ozan @akmandev]

When do you stop feeling cringe while trying to market your product? 😅

I am proud of the product I built but I have no clue about marketing so I'm just trying a few things now. Building was just fun. But it feels strange trying to sell it.

[Ozan @akmandev]

@terencebuilds Yes, definitely a better perspective. Helps others to understand it and potentially be interested in too

[Ozan @akmandev]

Analyzed 2M+ Reddit posts already (and counting)

You can test it yourself and let me know if you need a discount! 🙂 https://t.co/OY2UXla7KJ

The problem with Reddit research:

Reddit has all the insights you need, but you have to read through 200 threads yourself to find them.

Who has time for that?

So I built the thing: point Reddiscope at the subreddits of your market, and it generates a Market Intelligence Report:

→ Pain points, clustered by theme
→ Whitespace opportunities: stuff people ask for that nobody's built (yet)
→ Concrete product ideas, pulled from the data, not made up
→ Who's getting mentioned and whether people like them
→ Overall sentiment: is this community energized or frustrated?

It turns a day of scrolling into something you can read in 5 minutes.

@ksprashu @mattpocockuk It just makes sense 😆

[Ozan @akmandev]

I couldn't remember @mattpocockuk's last name, and I just searched for him with "matt typescript" 😆

[Ozan @akmandev]

@imtiaznabi_ @mattpocockuk ahahhaa legit

[Ozan @akmandev]

@mattpocockuk Even better 😆

Doing some backfilling for Reddiscope.

Task: run sentiment analysis on ~1.5 million Reddit posts.

Created a small analyzer that sends each post to an LLM API provider and automatically switches to the next provider+model combo whenever the provider rate limit is hit.

I'm using Prism, which provides a 'resetsAt' property when PrismRateLimitedException is thrown, so I can resolve TTL per provider/model, cache it, and switch to the next provider until then.

The implementation is quite simple, but extremely effective.

So far, processed 1M+ jobs without a single failure 🙂

I bought my SSD 3 years ago for €69.90, now the same SSD is €264... What the hell happened to the SSD space? 😅

[Ozan @akmandev]

Reddiscope already has so much data about Reddit, which we collected over months - now you can generate "Market Intelligence Report" which will give you an executive summary and some great insights like Product Opportunities.

Here is an example from the wedding market research I just created.

DM me if you're interested so I can help you setup an account 🙂

[Ozan @akmandev]

Almost 1 month since I launched, and DR is already 7!

Mostly just added it to a few directories (paid)

Next: add 1-2 useful content each week

[Ozan @akmandev]

I love seeing new places but I don't like traveling at all. Is there a name for this? 😅
