Social Snitch-style brand inbox

One inbox for every mention of your brand or project

Problem

Indie developers and marketers are spread across Hacker News, Reddit, X, V2EX and Product Hunt, and it's easy to miss when someone mentions their product — losing the chance to reply or do PR. The original Show HN literally pitches 'one inbox for all mentions of your brand or projects,' confirming the pain is real.

Solution

Users add keywords and sites, and the product polls public search results and RSS on a schedule, deduplicates, tags, and funnels everything into a unified inbox with read/assign states, CSV export, and a daily email digest. Start with low-friction sources like HN, Reddit, V2EX and Product Hunt.

Users

Indie developers, early-stage founders, open-source maintainers, personal-brand bloggers, small marketing teams

MVP

Only HN/Reddit/V2EX/Product Hunt; keyword polling with dedupe; inbox list with read/unread; daily or weekly email digest; no sentiment analysis or auto-reply in v1

Revenue

Free tier with 1 brand and 3 keywords; Pro subscription at $5–15/month per brand or keyword count; optional API billing for more automated teams

Why now

More indie makers than ever, fragmented community chatter, and existing social listening tools are expensive and enterprise-heavy. Nobody has built a lightweight, cross-community, solo-friendly version
