Why teams switch from Reddit Ads Spy
Real challenges that lead people to look for alternatives
Ads interrupt, conversations convert
Reddit users are notoriously ad-resistant. Organic engagement in real conversations builds trust that paid placements can't match.
Cost per click adds up
Reddit advertising costs money with uncertain ROI. Finding buyers in organic conversations is more cost-effective.
Ad fatigue and blindness
Users scroll past ads. But they engage with helpful responses to their genuine questions and problems.
Limited targeting options
Reddit ad targeting is broad. Organic intent signals let you reach people at the exact moment they're looking for solutions.
No buying intent signals
Ads target demographics. CatchIntent finds people actively expressing buying intent in their own words.
Requires ad creative and budget
Running ads requires creative assets, budget management, and optimization. CatchIntent finds leads with just keywords.

Frequently Asked Questions
Should I use CatchIntent instead of Reddit ads?
They serve different purposes. Reddit ads build awareness at scale. CatchIntent finds individual high-intent buyers for direct engagement. Many teams use both strategies together.
Is organic engagement really more effective?
On Reddit, often yes. Users are skeptical of ads but receptive to helpful responses in genuine conversations. Engagement feels authentic, not promotional.
How does pricing compare to ad spend?
CatchIntent is a flat subscription. You get unlimited signal detection for predictable costs, unlike variable ad spend based on competition and targeting.
Can I reach as many people?
Ads reach more people broadly. CatchIntent reaches fewer people with much higher intent. Quality leads over volume.
Do I need both ads and CatchIntent?
Many teams use ads for awareness and CatchIntent for high-intent lead capture. They complement each other in a full-funnel strategy.
