Competitor Reddit feature-gap tracker to Linear
Weekly, it mines Reddit for threads where users praise a competitor or wish your product did something, extracts concrete feature gaps.
How it runs
The automated pipeline, trigger to output.

What it does
Each week it searches the subreddits your buyers frequent for posts comparing you to competitors or asking for capabilities you lack. It distills those into discrete feature gaps, scores demand by how often each comes up, and turns the strongest signals into Linear issues so product hears the market directly.
When to use it
Use it when you want your roadmap fed by unfiltered user demand and competitor envy rather than only sales anecdotes, without an analyst manually reading threads every week.
How it works
- 1A weekly schedule trigger starts the run.
- 2Apify scrapes target subreddits for posts and comments mentioning your product and rivals.
- 3OpenAI extracts distinct feature gaps and competitor advantages, each with demand count and quotes.
- 4A logic step keeps only gaps above a mention threshold and drops ones already tracked.
- 5For each surviving gap, a Linear issue is created (or updated) with the evidence and demand score.
- 6A weekly digest of new and rising gaps posts to Slack.
