Beanie is an AI social listening tool for Reddit. It searches Reddit for conversations where potential customers describe the exact problem your product solves, grades each one for buying intent, surfaces the best matches, and drafts a reply for you to review and post yourself.

Which platforms does Beanie monitor for leads?

Reddit, and only Reddit today. Beanie searches Reddit as a whole rather than watching a list of subreddits, so there are no communities for you to pick and nothing to maintain when your market shifts. The keywords it searches are generated from your product description. Other sources may be added later; nothing else is connected right now.

How does the intent scoring work?

Two AI passes run on every post. The first decides whether the post is relevant to your product at all and discards it outright if not. The second grades how ready to buy the person is, from 6 to 10: 6 is someone describing the problem without asking for help yet, 7 to 8 is someone actively researching a fix, and 9 to 10 is someone asking for a tool or ready to switch. Every post that clears the first pass is scored and reaches your dashboard, so your feed stays signal-rich without anything held back.

Is there a free plan? Do I need a credit card to sign up?

Yes. Beanie gives you 10,000 free credits on signup with no credit card required. That is enough to run your first campaign and see real leads before deciding to upgrade. Paid plans start at $28.99/month and differ in how many campaigns you can run at once, from one up to six, along with the monthly credits that come with them. Your first payment on any plan is half off.

What is a credit and how quickly will I use them?

Credits are charged per qualified lead saved, based on its intent score. A passive match (score 6) costs 300 credits, a strong signal (7-8) costs 1,000, and a buying-intent post (9-10) costs 1,750. A small scan fee of 1 credit applies to each post processed but not saved, capped at 125 per run. If a campaign finds no leads at all, the run is completely free. The free plan's 10,000 credits are a real taste of the product. The Founder plan's 100,000 monthly credits support an always-on campaign that checks every 3 hours.

How is Beanie different from a Reddit keyword alert tool?

Alert tools ping you every time a word appears, which mostly produces a feed you still have to read. Beanie grades each post for intent before it reaches you, throws out off-topic matches entirely rather than scoring them low, and shows you the reasoning behind every score alongside a draft reply. You get a short list worth reading instead of a stream worth skimming.

Can I export my leads?

Yes. Every lead in your dashboard can be exported to CSV with one click from the Leads page. The export includes the post title, community, intent score, collected date, and current pipeline status.

How long does a collection campaign take?

A one-time collection run has a hard ten minute budget and stops there with whatever it has found, so it can never sit spinning. Real-time campaigns work differently: they check every 3 hours, with a five minute budget per check. You can watch progress live from the dashboard, and any run can be paused, resumed, or cancelled at any point.

What types of businesses use Beanie?

Beanie is built for small B2B teams (2 to 10 people) and solo founders who sell to people that discuss their problems openly online. It works especially well for SaaS companies, digital agencies, and consultants whose ideal customers seek advice in online communities, which covers most B2B categories.

Yes. Beanie uses row-level security (RLS) so each user can only access their own data. All data is stored in a Supabase-managed PostgreSQL database with encryption at rest and in transit. No lead data is shared or visible across accounts.

How do I set up my first Beanie campaign?

Create a free account, then describe what you sell in one or two sentences on the campaign setup screen. Beanie uses that description to generate a targeting profile and keyword set automatically. Click Launch campaign, choose how many leads to collect, and the scan starts immediately, with results appearing in the dashboard as they are found rather than all at once at the end. A run stops after ten minutes whatever it has found. No manual keyword research, no community selection, and no configuration is required.

Beanie vs ReplyGuy

Keyword monitoring with AI reply suggestions

ReplyGuy monitors keywords and suggests replies. Beanie adds a two-AI scoring layer that separates real buying intent from keyword noise, builds your customer profile from a short product description, and tracks each lead through a pipeline. Every Beanie reply is a draft you post yourself, from your own account.

Who switches from ReplyGuy to Beanie

Three common reasons founders make the move.

You post from your own account

Beanie never posts anything. It drafts, you edit, and you publish from your own account, which is the only version of this that survives a subreddit noticing.

Too many irrelevant alerts

Keyword matching surfaces everything mentioning the word. Buying intent is different. Beanie's two-AI scoring filters down to the threads that actually matter.

You want to track what happens after you reply

Beanie tracks each lead through your pipeline, from New to Contacted, so nothing slips.
