Helps the user with Reddily platform questions — from thread analysis and batch processing through credit optimization, Chrome extension usage, and research methodology.
Step 1 — Gather context
If references/learnings.md exists, read it first for accumulated platform knowledge.
Ask the user:
- What area of Reddily do you need help with?
- A) Thread analysis — interpreting results, improving relevance
- B) Batch analysis — analyzing multiple threads, structuring research
- C) Chrome extension — setup, troubleshooting
- D) Credit optimization — getting more value per analysis
- E) Research methodology — how to use Reddily for market research
- F) Account/billing — credit packs, pricing
- G) Something else — describe it
-
What credit pack are you on?
- A) Free credits (5 on signup)
- B) Starter (10 credits, $2.99)
- C) Growth (50 credits, $13.99)
- D) Pro (100 credits, $26.99)
- E) Enterprise (500 credits, $119.99)
-
What are you trying to accomplish? (describe your specific goal)
If the user's request already provides most of this context, skip directly to the relevant step. Lead with your best-effort answer using reasonable assumptions (stated explicitly), then ask only the most critical 1-2 clarifying questions at the end.
Step 2 — Route or answer directly
If the request maps to a specialized skill, route:
- Social listening strategy or tool comparison →
/sales-social-listening [question] - Reddit monitoring strategy across tools →
/sales-social-listening [question] - Reddit pain point scoring (frequency/severity) →
/sales-painonsocial [question] - Audience intelligence and demand research →
/sales-reddinbox [question] - Audience profiling (where audiences spend attention) →
/sales-sparktoro [question]
Otherwise, answer directly from platform knowledge using the reference below.
Step 3 — Reddily platform reference
Read references/platform-guide.md for the full platform reference — capabilities, pricing, analysis outputs, research methodology, and tips.
Answer the user's question using only the relevant section. Don't dump the full reference.
Step 4 — Actionable guidance
Based on the user's specific question:
- Analysis quality — refine which threads to analyze, interpret structured outputs, identify actionable insights
- Batch research — structure keyword searches, select threads strategically, combine batch results
- Credit optimization — preview threads before spending credits, prioritize high-value threads, use the subreddit finder
- Chrome extension — install, troubleshoot, one-click workflow
- Research methodology — combine Reddily with other tools for complete market research
If you discover a gotcha, workaround, or tip not covered in references/learnings.md, append it there.
Gotchas
Best-effort from research — review these, especially items about pricing and capabilities that may be outdated.
-
Reddily is analysis, not monitoring. It analyzes threads on demand — it does not continuously monitor keywords or send alerts. If you need ongoing monitoring, pair Reddily with a monitoring tool (Syften, RedShip, KeyMentions) for the reactive side.
-
Credits are pay-per-analysis, not subscription. Each thread analysis costs one credit (~$0.24-0.30 depending on pack size). Credits don't expire. No monthly subscription — but costs can add up quickly for large research projects. Preview threads before analyzing to avoid wasting credits on low-value threads.
-
70% launch discount may expire. Current pricing shows 70% off original prices. If you see higher prices, the discount period may have ended.
-
No API, no webhooks, no Zapier. Entirely UI + Chrome extension. You cannot export analysis data programmatically or build automation pipelines. PDF export is the only export option.
-
Batch analysis has limits. Batch processing handles 25-50 threads per run. For larger research projects, run multiple batch analyses with different keyword searches.
-
AI analysis uses Google Gemini. Results depend on Gemini's capabilities and limitations — sarcasm, context-dependent sentiment, and niche jargon may be misinterpreted. Always review AI outputs against the actual thread content.

Examples
Example 1: Structure a market research project
User says: "I want to understand what problems people have with project management tools. How do I use Reddily for this?" Skill does:
- Suggests using Reddily's subreddit finder to identify relevant communities (r/projectmanagement, r/startups, r/SaaS)
- Recommends keyword searches like "project management frustrated" or "Asana vs Monday" in the batch dashboard
- Advises selecting 20-30 high-engagement threads across different subreddits for batch analysis
- Explains how to read the pain point and feature request outputs to identify recurring themes Result: User has a structured approach to Reddit-based market research
Example 2: Credit optimization
User says: "I burned through my 10 credits analyzing threads that weren't useful. How do I get better value?" Skill does:
- Recommends previewing thread engagement (upvotes, comment count) before spending a credit
- Suggests focusing on threads with 50+ comments — more data produces richer analysis
- Advises using the free subreddit finder tool first to identify the right communities
- Notes that the Growth pack ($13.99/50 credits) drops per-analysis cost from $0.30 to $0.28 Result: User avoids wasting credits on low-value threads
Example 3: Combining Reddily with monitoring tools
User says: "I want to use Reddily for deep analysis but I also need ongoing alerts when people mention my product on Reddit" Skill does:
- Explains Reddily is on-demand analysis, not monitoring — it won't alert you to new threads
- Recommends pairing with a monitoring tool: Syften ($19.95/mo, 15+ platforms), RedShip ($19/mo, API), or RedditMentions (€4.49/mo, cheapest alerts)
- Suggests workflow: monitoring tool catches relevant threads → use Reddily Chrome extension on the most important ones for deep analysis
- Routes to
/sales-social-listeningfor help choosing a monitoring tool Result: User understands the complementary workflow between monitoring and analysis tools
Troubleshooting
Analysis results don't match what you see in the thread
Symptom: Reddily's sentiment or pain points don't reflect the actual conversation tone or themes Cause: Gemini AI may misinterpret sarcasm, niche jargon, or context-dependent sentiment. Long threads may have mixed signals that get averaged. Solution: Cross-reference Reddily's output with the actual thread. Focus on the "Notable Quotes" section which provides direct evidence. For niche communities, the AI may need more context — try analyzing multiple threads in the same subreddit to see if patterns emerge across analyses.
Chrome extension not working
Symptom: Reddily button doesn't appear on Reddit pages, or clicking it doesn't trigger analysis Cause: Extension not installed, disabled, or Reddit's page structure changed Solution: Verify the extension is installed and enabled in Chrome settings (chrome://extensions). Make sure you're on a Reddit thread page (not a subreddit listing or user profile). Try refreshing the page. If still broken, check for Chrome extension updates or try the web dashboard instead.
Batch analysis returns shallow results
Symptom: Batch results across 25+ threads feel repetitive or generic Cause: Threads selected were too similar (same subreddit, same topic angle) or had too few comments Solution: Diversify thread selection across multiple subreddits for different perspectives. Prioritize threads with 50+ comments. Mix thread types: complaint threads, recommendation requests, comparison discussions, "how do you handle X" posts. Use different keyword searches to capture different angles of the same problem.
