A curated list of Reddit users actively seeking software alternatives or recommendations, delivered as structured data for immediate sales outreach.
The agent configures the Apify Reddit Scraper to search for specific keywords related to the user's product category and competitors. It sets parameters to filter for recent posts and applies an AI custom label to identify posts where users are explicitly looking for software solutions. The agent then retrieves the structured JSON output containing only the qualified leads, filtering out noise like job ads or self-promotion.
