This Starts Happening When You Grow

You Find Out Too Late

A Reddit thread about your product had 200 upvotes before anyone on your team saw it. The conversation happened without you.

Manual Checking Doesn't Scale

You used to check Twitter and Reddit every morning. Now there are 8 platforms to watch, and you have a company to run.

Your Team Misses What You'd Catch

Nobody on your team has the same instinct for what matters. Mentions fall through the cracks between marketing, support, and product.

5 Minutes to Set Up. Every Mention After That Is Automatic.

1. Add your keywords

Your brand name, product names, competitor names. Octolens starts tracking across 11 platforms immediately.

"Wild AI-native onboarding experience. I literally entered zero input other than `vercel⁠.com` to get my Octolens feed up and giving me mentions"

What Founders Use Octolens For

Know What Users Really Think

The honest feedback lives on Reddit and Twitter — not in your support inbox. Surface the conversations users have when they don't think you're listening.

Catch Issues Before They Snowball

A frustrated user posts about a bug. Three people pile on. By tomorrow it's a narrative. Octolens alerts you in minutes so you can respond while it still matters.

Discover Who's Using Your Product

Tally discovered OpenAI was using their forms — through an Octolens alert. No tag, no announcement. These moments are invisible without monitoring.

We discovered that OpenAI was using Tally through Octolens. It wasn't tagged or announced anywhere — we just spotted it through a post.

Stay on Top of Competitors

Know when competitors ship, break, or get praised. Track their mentions alongside yours without checking five platforms a day.

Saves 10+ hours/week

For a long time, we were in the dark. We would occasionally stumble on Reddit threads or niche forum posts, but discovery was random and incomplete.
