across TikTok, Reddit, and X specifically because those three have wildly different norms for what an authentic mention even looks like. a Reddit comment buried in a thread reads as more trustworthy by default than a TikTok video because TikTok incentivizes content creation in a way that distorts organic opinion. curious whether the verification weighting accounts for that platform difference or treats a mention the same regardless of where it came from

Love the positioning here. Once the platform surfaces an urgent, actionable insight (like a sudden spike in negative sentiment on TikTok), can it trigger instant alerts to our team via Slack or Microsoft Teams so we can manage it in real time?

Surveys give you sanitized feedback. Reddit threads give you unfiltered reality. The gap between those two is usually where the real product work is. Congrats on the launch!

Very good idea, Reddit is one of the best apps to get honest feedback But you can replace TikTok with X I think it’s more better

Great launch video - congradulations!! Was clear & engaging - not an easy task to pull off!!

In the video, you mentioned "no more noisy, outdated social listening tools" - how does Honestly specifically differentiate itself from other social listening tools out there that seem to be doing something similar?

the bot/fake review problem on social is so bad right now that "verified authentic" is doing a lot of heavy lifting here. curious how you handle edge cases where someone posts about your product without naming it directly (like describing a feature or a bug). does Honestly still pick those up?

Hey @scott_davidson_jr ,qq like a fake reviews are an absolute nightmare on marketplaces right now. does this track conversations happening inside closed loops like reddit threads and discord, or is it strictly pulling from public apis like twitter/x? great to see launch

This is the stuff founders are too scared to look at and most need to. Reddit especially will say to your face what no focus group ever would. Does it show you threads as they happen, or is it more of a periodic thing?

The gap between what consumers say in a formal research setting and what they actually think is one of the most underrated problems in brand strategy. Reddit and TikTok are genuinely where unfiltered consumer truth lives - this is an interesting angle on that. Curious how you handle conflicting signals when Reddit and TikTok audiences have very different takes on the same product?

This is useful because the raw mentions are usually less important than the repeated language behind them. The real value is spotting the phrases customers keep using before they turn into positioning, product, or campaign decisions.

Do you plan for predictive capabilities? For example, when launching new products.

Congratulations on the launch!
Being able to pull data from so many sources that are scraping protected is very impressive!

Later would you guys also consider getting information from Facebook, maybe Facebook groups?

It's really an interesting idea. There is so much customer feedback spread across different platforms now, but actually finding what is real and useful is becoming harder, I saw the other day about an influencer talking about the dead internet theory and how it's full of bots and AI generated stuff. I can see how this could help teams save a lot of time. Curious, how do you decide which conversations are trustworthy enough to include in the insights?

The Reddit + TikTok combo is the right pick — those two are where "what people actually think" lives, vs the polished stuff on X/LinkedIn. Curious how it handles small/new products with low mention volume — does it surface a single thread or does it need a baseline?

Interesting idea. How do you determine whether a comment is actually authentic versus just engagement bait or bot activity?

This is really interesting — the AI detection angle is what stands out to me. How accurate is the verification layer when it comes to short-form content like TikTok comments where tone is really hard to read even for humans?

How do you decide what counts as verified, account signals or matching to actual customers ?

Yeah! Love this. Reddit and TikTok not only are trendy but one of the best way to get honest feedback. Love to see you helping on this! Wish you all the best team!

Been doing this manually for months - searching Reddit threads for honest feedback on our tool is a real time sink. The verification layer to weed out AI-generated posts is what makes this interesting, because without it you'd just be surfacing more noise. One thing I'd love to know - how does coverage hold up for niche B2B products that don't have huge Reddit communities? That's usually where the signal breaks down for us.
