The problem

The gigs are out there. You're just seeing them late.

01

Job boards are crowded and slow

Hundreds of applicants per listing, and by the time a gig is posted there, it's already picked over.

02

The best gigs are buried in threads

People ask for editors, designers and writers in Reddit posts and comments, not on job boards.

03

By the time you see it, 40 people replied

Clients hire from the first few replies. Showing up an hour late is the same as not showing up.

How it works

No keywords to set up. AI does the watching.

Most monitoring tools only watch posts. Social Radar checks every comment too, because that's where buying intent often shows up.

  1. 1

    Describe your business

    Describe what you do or paste your portfolio URL. AI picks up to 5 subreddits where clients post.

  2. 2 Your focus

    Get only what's relevant

    "Looking for a video editor." "Need a logo designer." You get the ping within minutes, not hours.

  3. 3

    Reply fast, in your own voice

    Be the first reply, with your own pitch and portfolio. Templates help you move fast; the words are yours.

  4. 4

    Turn questions into content

    Show up helpfully and often, and people start tagging you when someone asks for your kind of work.

This is the kind of post Social Radar surfaces for freelancers. You see it while there are still zero replies.

Why we built it

Built by someone who needed it first.

Social Radar was built by Michelle Rueda, a software engineer for 16 years. She built it to grow her own Austin newsletter, What's Weird ATX, and her app WhatsGoodATX, which reached 4,000 users with no ad spend through organic engagement on Reddit and other platforms.

Common questions

Will this find me gigs?

Social Radar shows you posts and comments where people ask for the kind of work you do, within minutes of them appearing. Landing the gig still comes down to your reply and your portfolio, but you'll be early instead of 40th.

How does Social Radar decide what to show me?

You describe your business, or paste your website and we pull the description for you. AI suggests up to 5 subreddits, then checks every new post and comment in them against your description. You're only notified about the relevant ones, while they're fresh. There are no keywords to set up.

Does it watch comments, or just posts?

Both. Most monitoring tools only watch posts, but buying intent often shows up deep in comment threads. Social Radar checks every new comment too.

Does Social Radar post AI replies for me?

No, and that's by design. Social Radar surfaces the conversations; you reply in your own voice. Reply templates help you respond quickly, but the words are yours. That authenticity is what builds trust.

Is Social Radar a good fit for me?

It fits best when your niche has active online communities: people asking questions, comparing options and asking for recommendations. If your customers rarely talk about what you offer online, the 3-day trial will show you quickly.

What devices does it work on?

iPhone, iPad and Mac. Android and Windows are on the waitlist.

What about X, LinkedIn, Instagram and TikTok?

They're coming as paid add-ons. Join the early-access list and we'll tell you when each one is ready.
