Rumora zeroes in on the annoyance brands face with ads that viewers ignore and the wasted budget chasing eyeballs. By scanning YouTube for viral hits in your niche and slipping in natural, AI-written mentions, it taps authentic conversations to spark curiosity and achieve 3x higher conversion rates. The machine learning pipeline feels polished and onboarding runs smoothly, though YouTube’s moderation and algorithm shifts pose a constant risk. With a 7-day free trial that lowers friction and strategic upvotes boosting visibility over time, this stealth tactic feels both clever and cost effective.

Hey Product Hunt! 🚀
After building and launching 6 products in 2024, we faced the same founders struggle many of you know: getting users is way harder (and more expensive) than building! For one of our SaaS tools, Olovka AI, running ads didn’t make sense - the payback period was just too long at a $9.95/mo price point.
That’s when @djordjevic_nikola and I discovered the power of engaging on viral YouTube videos. Here’s how it works:
1️⃣ You find high-potential, trending videos in your niche posted in the last 24 hours.
2️⃣ You post insightful, genuinely valuable comments that (subtly!) mention your brand.
3️⃣ As those videos rack up views, people notice your comment, get curious, Google your product, and visit your site.
This strategy brought in over 24,000 signups for Olovka AI in just a few months—almost all from organic search and direct Google queries!
Here’s the catch: manually managing it all was incredibly time-consuming. We found ourselves constantly checking which comments were live, shadow-banned, or needing more engagement to stay visible. It worked, but it was exhausting.
So we decided to build Rumora for ourselves to automate the whole process:
🔎 Effortlessly discover relevant, viral YouTube videos in your industry as they become popular
💬 Instantly generate comment ideas that sound authentic and mention your product naturally (no spam!)
🚀 Hourly tracking of comment status, position, and estimated reach so you can quickly boost, re-post, or take action as needed
If you’re curious about what this can do in practice, we wrote up a full case study for Olovka here: https://rumora.ai/case-studies/o...
And if you want to see how to do it manually (even without Rumora), check out this detailed guide: https://rumora.ai/blog/youtube-c...
Hope you find Rumora useful - we would love to hear your thoughts and feedback! Thanks for checking it out 🙌

@djordjevic_nikola @whoisrade I hoped you would keep this app a secret just a bit longer. Now I'm getting jealous that other people will get to use it besides me 😕
Just kidding, Rumora is a mega sexy and refreshing solution for those who always need to boost their brand a bit more, increase trial conversions a bit more, and generally squeeze that ROI juuust a bit more 😂
Rumora
@gashomor Haha, thanks Radomir! 😄 We definitely debated keeping it to ourselves a little longer, but ultimately decided everyone deserves a shot at it! Really appreciate your support (and your sense of humor 🚀)
Rumora
@gashomor Haha, you know we couldn’t keep it hidden forever 😎 Glad you’re enjoying Rumora — let’s keep pushing those ROI boundaries together! 💪

@mogabr Thank you so much, Gabe! Really appreciate the support. 🙌 If you get a chance to check out Rumora, I’d love to hear your thoughts!
Rumora
@mogabr Thanks a lot for the support, Gabe!
@djordjevic_nikola @whoisrade Heyy!! Congrats on the launch!!🍀
Do you have any success stories or real examples with good results? How did you test if this would actually work?
Rumora
@kksrm Thanks so much, Ksenia! Yes - we first tested this strategy with our own B2C tool, Olovka, and grew it from 500 to 24,000+ users in just a few months, all organic and no ads. We’ve shared the full case study with screenshots on our site.
Right now, we’re working with early adopters across all kinds of niches (apps, e-commerce, supplements, personal brands, etc.) to build more case studies, but we want to give it a bit of time since results keep compounding as videos get more views. The main thing you need is to be in a niche with lots of YouTube videos.
Rumora
@kksrm Thanks so much for the kind words and support! 🍀🙏

@djordjevic_nikola @whoisrade luck with launch! Curious in which niches it works best
Rumora
@kostyabolsh Thanks, Kostya! In my experience, Rumora works best in niches where a lot of new YouTube videos are published daily and those videos attract decent view counts. Some examples: tech/software tutorials, AI and SaaS reviews, productivity tools, e-commerce, education, health & fitness, personal finance, etc.
Basically, if your audience is searching for solutions and there’s a steady stream of content (with engagement in the comments), YouTube can be a powerful channel. I could see @mgmate fitting in well with videos around team management, productivity, and workplace culture - there’s definitely an active discussion there. If you want to brainstorm for your niche, happy to chat more!
Rumora
@kostyabolsh Really appreciate the support and kind words, — means a lot! 🙌

Rumora.ai is pure growth hacking magic.
It finds viral content in your niche and helps you slip your startup into the conversation naturally. No more forced promos - just smart, timely engagement where the eyeballs already are. The 3x higher conversion isn’t a surprise - it’s relevance at work. A brilliant tool for founders who want visibility without being spammy.
Rumora
@istiakahmad Thanks so much, Istiak! Love how you put it, relevance really is the secret sauce. Appreciate the support!

minimalist phone: creating folders
Partially looks like F5BOT – when I get notifications via email about topics mentioned on Reddit, Hackernews, etc.
Who are your target audiences? I would reckon big companies that want to increase visibility on YT?
Or individuals as well? Because atm it looks like for B2B :)
Rumora
@busmark_w_nika F5Bot is a listening tool - you get notified when someone happens to mention you.
Rumora is the opposite: it's an action tool. It actually creates genuine, user-style comments about your product (using a pool of real YouTube accounts), so your product gets brought up naturally in relevant conversations.
It's not just for big companies—anyone can use it, as long as people can find your product by searching it, and your niche has active YouTube videos. We even have notable authors as users, promoting their personal brand.
minimalist phone: creating folders
@whoisrade So what is the impulse for creating a comment? Mentioning a specific topic of your niche?
Rumora
@busmark_w_nika Thanks for your thoughtful comment! Really appreciate your interest. Looking forward to hearing more feedback from you!

Social commenting — automated? Al last! You've done it, guys 🥹
Always hated this monkey job.
Rumora
@goshatirov Thank you so much, Gosha! Glad to hear Rumora hits the mark for you! Can’t wait to see what you do with it once you launch 🚀
Rumora
@goshatirov Thank you so much for the support, Gosha! We totally get how tedious that “monkey job” can be — that’s exactly why we built Rumora to make it effortless. Looking forward to seeing your launch and how Rumora can help you grow! 🚀

Oh, I love how you guys think outside the box and build something that can give an advantage over following the same playbooks where you compete with everyone else - and in the end, it's all about how much you spend. I’m definitely going to give Rumora a try for my next product launch. I’ve seen how talking with people directly on social platforms beats paid ads, but honestly, I gave up trying to follow hundreds of subreddits, YouTube channels, X threads, Facebook groups, you-name-it platform. It's like a full-time job.
Congrats on the launch!
Rumora
@whatisyourhandle Thanks so much, Sergey! And you nailed the pain, trying to keep up with all those platforms is overwhelming. The cool thing is, Rumora isn’t just for launches; it works for ongoing product promotion too, as long as folks can find you on Google and your niche has active YouTube conversations. Can’t wait to see what you do with it!
Rumora
@whatisyourhandle Thank you so much for the kind words and support! We’re excited for you to try Rumora and see how it can simplify your product promotion.
Hello, what are the limits that YouTube places on commenting, and how do these restrictions impact the functionality of the Rumora app?
Rumora
@alsafa_alizada Great question, Alsafa!
YouTube definitely has strict limits and automated systems to prevent spammy behavior: like posting too many comments in a short time, repeated content, and using new accounts excessively. That’s why with Rumora, we focus on quality over quantity:
We don’t post from your personal YouTube account, so your main presence is never at risk.
Comments are posted via a vetted pool of real, aged YouTube accounts, each used very sparingly, 1-2 meaningful comments per relevant video that you approve.
We avoid spam triggers: no mass posting, no copy-paste comments, and every comment is tailored to the context and value of the video - you can edit it before posting to ensure it fits well.
Comments are upvoted from the same pool of users to maximize it's visibility, but upvotes are also kept in a natural range to avoid suspicious activity.
This approach keeps things compliant with YouTube’s guidelines and maximizes the chance your comment stays visible (and doesn’t get removed or buried). Our goal is not to flood YouTube, but to join genuine conversations where your brand fits naturally and provide value, while very subtly mentioning your product.
@whoisrade Thanks for clarification
