Community template · Updated August 2026
Reddit community monitor template.
Name a subreddit. AyeWatch checks new posts there and pings you when something matches what you asked for.
Why this template
What it is for.
Important threads bury themselves in an hour. Reddit’s own mail is noisy. A generic web monitor treats r/foo like any other page and often gets the login wall.
The actual subreddit, not a Google recap
The monitor uses the official r/name listing and post pages. Other subs stay out.
Keywords if you want them
Leave keywords blank to see new posts. Add GGUF or a product name to narrow it.
Not brand listening
This is one community, not Instagram, TikTok, or a mention dashboard.
Use cases
Where people use it.
A product community
Watch r/LocalLLaMA for a model or format you ship on.
A support beat
Catch recurring complaint threads in a niche sub before they become a wiki page.
Research
Follow a technical sub for papers, releases, and firsthand reports.
How to use it
Four steps. A blank or two.

- 4

Alerts land in your feed and as a push. Paid plans add email, Slack, Discord, and webhooks. Templates are included with every paid plan.
What you fill in
SubredditRequired
For example: LocalLLaMA, r/LocalLLaMA, or a reddit.com/r/… link.
KeywordsOptional
Optional. For example: GGUF, Qwen, or a product name.
Suggested speeds: A few times a day, Daily, Weekly. Subreddits move through the day, but hourly checks are rarely worth it unless a thread is breaking.
- Paste r/name or the reddit.com/r/… URL. Either works.
- One subreddit per monitor. Split noisy communities.
- Daily is enough for most subs. Use 6-hour checks when a thread is breaking.

FAQ
Reddit community template, answered.
Do you scrape every comment?
No. You get new posts from the official listing, then the post body when we can read it. This is not a full-thread archive.
Can I watch all of Reddit for a brand?
Not with this template. Use a topic monitor or News tracking for broader coverage. Brand-wide social listening is a different product.
