Maker
📌
Hey PH! I'm Dani, the maker behind NicheRadar.
The idea came from my own frustration: I'd build something, then spend days guessing WHERE to share it. Reddit? Discord? Which subreddit? Which server? I kept posting in the wrong places and getting zero traction.
So I built NicheRadar — describe your product and target customer in plain English, get a ranked list of communities (subreddits, Discord servers, forums) with member counts, activity levels, promo rules, and a suggested first post for each.

How accurate is the promo rules detection, like is it actually reading each subreddit's sidebar or doing something shakier under the hood?
Report
how does it handle bigger communities, like the huge default subs where the promo rules are super strict or mods basically insta-delete anything that looks like a plug?

the suggested first post idea was honestly the most useful part, saved me from that awkward blank page when joining a new subreddit. member counts and activity levels next to each community made it easy to skip the dead ones too.

The subreddit suggestions actually matched my niche surprisingly well, and the promo rules for each one saved me from probably getting banned in a couple places. Solid weekend build.

The suggested first post for each community is such a thoughtful touch, it skips that awkward moment of figuring out how to introduce yourself without sounding salesy.
