Octolens - Social listening for the agent era
Your AI agents read your code, docs, and CRM but can't see Reddit, Hacker News, podcasts, or the news. Octolens is one API for every mention across the internet. AI-filtered JSON via API, webhooks & MCP. Pipe it into Slack, your CRM, your warehouse, or your agents.

Setup was surprisingly quick and the AI scoring actually seemed to flag the relevant Reddit threads instead of just dumping everything. Wish the Slack alerts were a bit more customizable but overall it nailed finding competitor mentions.

@kardelengk2rpc Thanks for the feedback! Noted on Slack customization - as a workaround right now you can use @Val Town from @stevekrouse to customize easily.
Best product to track mentions of your business! <3
Helped us a lot in Rork

@dora_akulshina thanks Dora! Glad to hear it
I see strong value in connecting mentions with Slack and CRM workflows. how do you measure whether a mention deserves immdeiate attention. A simple priority score with clear reasons could help teams respond faster and avoid wasting time.

@jason_scott8 Thanks! We do have a releance filter as well as tags which help triage. We also have a quick summary of why we think the post is important to you / your business.
With our MCP you can also add your own layer of what you think is important + your goals. I think we can definitely also expand and create some more skills with value add next actions steps and suggestions.

@Octolens is an amazing product! It used to be very hard to keep track of all the signals coming from all the different socials, octolens does this out of the box!

@pietrozullo Thank you, love to hear this!
Good call on changing the product to meet the customer where they are without changing the product. Really difficult to change user behavior. Really like this for our team

@ryanbutz great to hear!
Love how clean the alert feed is, the AI sentiment tags next to each mention save me from opening every post to figure out if it's worth jumping into.

@cafersxhm Thank you! We've put a lot of effort into a clean and easy UX so appreciate this feedback :)
Been using Octolens for a few weeks to track competitor mentions on Reddit and HN. Setup took maybe 3 minutes – just plugged in my website and it suggested keywords. Now I get Slack alerts when someone's complaining about a problem my tool solves. AI filtering actually works, not getting spammed with junk. One thing though – it's great for existing products, but if you're still in pre-launch validation, this isn't really the right tool. Solid for what it does though.

@rick_borduur Thanks for the review, glad you are liking it!! I agree that it's easiest to get value if you have an existing product or brand.
Reddit is one of the most useful apps if you want valuable feedback, how close is the data to real time ?
Octolens
@reda_roqai_chaoui very very close! Usually just a few seconds.

This is cool! How do you get around rate-limits, shaddow bans, and SoMe being generally inaccessible for automation, and geting stricter every day?
