Building in public update about the Reddit Lead Finder tool 🔥

Added AI DM generation that actually sounds like a real human — no more robotic sales copy.

It reads the post context, understands the vibe, and crafts personalized messages that feel natural and engaging.

Building this in public — next up: improve the metrics and campaign dashboard.

What feature would help you if you used this tool?

[Lucas Henrique Procopio @LucasHProcopio]

@hoomanask @pcshipp Nice tips 👏.

Regarding building a solution and then looking for a problem, could you give one tip on how you search for a solution first?

[Lucas Henrique Procopio @LucasHProcopio]

@Fer_MOMENTO It makes sense, but what do you mean by successful SaaS? A SaaS that crossed, let's say, $10K MRR?

Also, if you could give one piece of SaaS advice, what would you give for people who are not successful yet?

Thanks 🙏

@qasimbizs Thanks for sharing this, very helpful 🙌

@aqibceo 👏👏 congratulations

@tonnoz @dpdawson I once made a fart 💨 sound Chrome extension that would fart every time people scrolled, minimized, or maximized the window, but Google rejected it 😂

I think u should do it. Assume you have nothing to lose. If SaaS fails, u'll learn a lot abt competition & building/shipping.

I built 2 SaaS projects & both failed. In both, I found others doing the same, but reasons differed. 1st: huge mkt but complex laws & distrib. 2nd: tool people used but not willing to pay.

Learned a lot & now building another. Guess what? LoL, others exist too 😂 but I will do different stuff based on what I learned so far

[Lucas Henrique Procopio @LucasHProcopio]

@FilipPanoski That is awesome, I think reddit is really good for cold DMs

[Lucas Henrique Procopio @LucasHProcopio]

@_Esther_george Thanks 🙏 for that. Soon I will make this tool available, and I hope to help as many people as possible with it.

🚀 Week 2 of RedditLeadFinder — Building in Public
I’m building this tool because I was tired of manually hunting Reddit for leads every single day.
This week I finally went from ideas → real code. Progress is being good

✅ Built a clean Metrics Dashboard — now I can see total leads found, average warmth score, and conversion potential at a glance

• Improved Warmth Scoring (AI that detects real buying intent: pain, budget mentions, “recommend me”, frustration, etc.)
• Added Action Events so the system learns what good leads look like over time

[Lucas Henrique Procopio @LucasHProcopio]

@santoshstack Nice, how is your daily routine to achieve this? Congrats 🎊

[Lucas Henrique Procopio @LucasHProcopio]

@_Esther_george 🙏

[Lucas Henrique Procopio @LucasHProcopio]

@AntonioEscudero @PabloSantanaT That is awesome 👏, congratulations 🎉. Thanks for sharing your journey — it's very inspiring.

[Lucas Henrique Procopio @LucasHProcopio]

@ApplyWiseAi The scoring at this initial step is based on campaign keywords and other information about the leads. With that, I define the scoring and set a warm level.

[Lucas Henrique Procopio @LucasHProcopio]

Week 1 building RedditLeadFinder in public ✅

Building tool to find Reddit leads via pain pts & AI intent signals. Scratching my itch for 1st product leads lol.

Done: repo live, API rsch, gen DMs, simple dash w/ leads counter by campaign, DMs sent + metrics.

Next: lead scoring & top campaign subreddits.

Would this be useful to you?

@marclou @matthieumatical Wow 18 KM run at 4 min /KM pace is really good 🙌

[Lucas Henrique Procopio @LucasHProcopio]

@martin_valchev_ I have seen some apps doing this and that could really be better than email, I hope it works 🙌

[Lucas Henrique Procopio @LucasHProcopio]

@tonnoz Yeah, maybe it's because AI is making coding easier, but it's sad that people copied your product like that, even colors. 🫨
