# Reddily Platform Help

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:

1. **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

2. **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)

3. **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:

1. **Analysis quality** — refine which threads to analyze, interpret structured outputs, identify actionable insights
2. **Batch research** — structure keyword searches, select threads strategically, combine batch results
3. **Credit optimization** — preview threads before spending credits, prioritize high-value threads, use the subreddit finder
4. **Chrome extension** — install, troubleshoot, one-click workflow
5. **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.

- **Self-improving**: If you discover something not covered here, append it to `references/learnings.md` with today's date.

## 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**:
1. Suggests using Reddily's subreddit finder to identify relevant communities (r/projectmanagement, r/startups, r/SaaS)
2. Recommends keyword searches like "project management frustrated" or "Asana vs Monday" in the batch dashboard
3. Advises selecting 20-30 high-engagement threads across different subreddits for batch analysis
4. 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**:
1. Recommends previewing thread engagement (upvotes, comment count) before spending a credit
2. Suggests focusing on threads with 50+ comments — more data produces richer analysis
3. Advises using the free subreddit finder tool first to identify the right communities
4. 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**:
1. Explains Reddily is on-demand analysis, not monitoring — it won't alert you to new threads
2. Recommends pairing with a monitoring tool: Syften ($19.95/mo, 15+ platforms), RedShip ($19/mo, API), or RedditMentions (€4.49/mo, cheapest alerts)
3. Suggests workflow: monitoring tool catches relevant threads → use Reddily Chrome extension on the most important ones for deep analysis
4. Routes to `/sales-social-listening` for 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
