Monitored channels

The places indie buyers actually compare notes

Communities where people ask for stacks, roast landing pages, hunt for alternatives, and upvote launches — the same surfaces where a helpful founder presence compounds.

  • X

    X (Twitter)

    Threads and keyword mentions in real time

  • r/

    Reddit

    Subreddits and discussions that match your keywords

  • HN

    Hacker News

    Launch threads and technical discussions

  • PH

    Product Hunt

    Product launch conversations and comments

New channels can be added as your monitoring strategy evolves.

How it works

Ship code by day, show up where it counts

A tight loop for solo builders: watch the keywords that describe your product, pick high-signal threads, reply in your voice (or with a draft) — then get back to building.

  1. 01

    Track your product and problem space

    Add the phrases buyers use — your name, category, competitors, and pain keywords — across X, Reddit, Hacker News, and Product Hunt in one inbox.

  2. 02

    Prioritize threads worth your time

    See what is fresh and relevant so you are not doom-scrolling. Spend minutes, not hours, deciding where a thoughtful reply actually moves awareness.

  3. 03

    Reply fast without sounding generic

    Use suggested replies when you want speed, or rewrite in your own voice. Stay consistent without burning the founder energy you need for the product.

Features

Built for builders who hate “growth hacks”

Fewer tabs, clearer intent, and a workflow that respects how little time you have between deploys and support.

  • You own your data

    Mentions, keywords, and drafts stay local-first — not parked on a random third-party “listening” stack.

  • One inbox across networks

    X, Reddit, Hacker News, and Product Hunt in a single flow so you are not context-switching across logins all morning.

  • Alerts that respect your focus

    Get nudges when something worth engaging hits your keywords — so you can jump in while the thread still matters.

About the founder

Made for shipping in public — without living in public

After years building software, the lesson stuck: distribution is not optional. But neither is deep work.

SocialTelescope is how I stay present where buyers ask real questions — without sacrificing the heads-down hours that actually ship the SaaS.
