Consumers recommend products to strangers on Reddit constantly, and those recommendations carry weight precisely because there is nothing in it for the person giving them. At scale, those threads are what shapes a category.

The B2C audience is concentrated in 6 subreddits with 11.6M+ combined members. These are the communities where B2C brands get recommended, compared and complained about, in public, by people with no incentive to be polite.

Nearly 30% of the sources Google and AI cite for buyer questions are Reddit threads, more than every other community site combined. So those same threads are what Google and AI assistants answer from when a b2c buyer asks which product to pick. Whether your name appears in them is not a vanity question.

OpenScout scores every matching thread for brand relevance, buying intent and engagement opportunity, drafts a reply written for that specific subreddit, and writes original posts you can publish in these communities yourself.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why does Reddit matter for B2C?

Consumers recommend products to strangers on Reddit constantly, and those recommendations carry weight precisely because there is nothing in it for the person giving them. At scale, those threads are what shapes a category. Those conversations happen in public on Reddit, which means you can find customers at the moment they are choosing, and it means Google and AI can read the same thread when the next buyer asks.

Which subreddits matter for B2C?

OpenScout tracks 6 key subreddits for B2C, with 11.6M+ combined members. It recommends them from your brand URL, and you can add, remove or pause any of them.

Will posting in these subreddits get my account banned?

It will if you post like an advertiser. OpenScout checks every draft against the target subreddit's own rules before you see it, never includes a link, and names your brand the way a person mentions where they work rather than the way an ad does.

How does AI scoring work for B2C threads?

Every thread is scored on brand relevance, buying intent and engagement opportunity. The scoring is deliberately calibrated so that a thread in the B2C space that is not about your product cannot rank high on intent alone.

How much does OpenScout cost for B2C brands?

Starter is $49/month with 10 keywords and 10 subreddits. Autopilot is $99/month with 20 of each, the Content Engine, and posting handled for you. Both include a 3-day free trial, no credit card required.
