Show HN: Leado – An AI Agent That Finds Reddit High-Intent Threads in Real Time

I built Leado because I kept noticing something strange while manually browsing Reddit: people were constantly asking for recommendations, comparing tools, and describing problems that matched exactly what many founders and indie hackers are building.

The opportunity was real, but the visibility was horrible.

Most of these posts only stay “hot” for a short window, and by the time you find them, someone else has already replied or the moment has passed.

So I created an agent that:

• watches selected subreddits in real time • detects buying-intent patterns (recommendation posts, tool comparisons, pain points) • sends alerts the moment a relevant thread appears • helps you engage without being salesy • and organizes everything in a simple dashboard

This started as a manual workflow I used to generate 500+ warm leads on Reddit, and I turned it into a tool because others kept asking how to replicate the system.

Happy to answer questions, share the tech stack, discuss the intent-detection model, or walk through how I approached the real-time monitoring.
