Find users for your AI product

AI tool discussions happen constantly on Reddit, X, LinkedIn, and HN. CatchIntent finds users actively looking for solutions like yours.

Why It Matters

AI discovery is a noisy, crowded space

Hundreds of AI tools launch every week. Users are overwhelmed with options. The companies that win are the ones who find users at the exact moment they're looking for help — when they describe a problem or ask for recommendations. Social listening cuts through the noise.

The Challenge

AI company growth challenges

The AI market is uniquely challenging. Here's what makes growth difficult for AI tool companies.

01

Overwhelming competition

New AI tools launch daily. Standing out in a sea of 'AI-powered' products requires perfect timing and positioning.

02

Rapid evaluation cycles

Users try multiple AI tools quickly. If you're not in consideration during their 24-hour evaluation window, you lose.

03

Use case discovery is hard

Users know what they want to accomplish, not which AI category to search. You need to find them by problem, not product.

04

Model comparison discussions

'ChatGPT vs Claude vs Gemini' threads happen constantly. Your positioning in these discussions shapes perception.

05

Early adopter timing

AI early adopters move fast. By the time you see a trending discussion, they've already made their choice.
