Reddit

6 production-ready jobs — subreddit voice mining, product feedback focus groups, trend-to-content pipelines, AMA-style persona interviews, competitor sentiment tracking, and pain point discovery for messaging

Overview

Reddit is the internet’s largest collection of self-organizing communities, each with a distinct vocabulary and emotional register. These six jobs pull posts, comments, and search results from Reddit’s OAuth API into Mavera’s surfaces (Brand Voice, Focus Groups, Mave Agent, Speak, Generate) to extract community voice, mirror feedback with synthetic personas, turn trends into content, run AMA interviews, track competitor sentiment, and discover pain points for ad copy.

Reddit API — Base URL: https://oauth.reddit.com/. Auth: OAuth 2.0 — Authorization: Bearer {token} header. Rate limits: 100 requests per minute per OAuth client.

Prerequisites

1. Reddit application credentials

   Create a script application at reddit.com/prefs/apps. Record the client ID and client secret.

   Reddit requires a descriptive User-Agent (e.g., script:your-app:v1.0 (by /u/yourname)). Requests without one are throttled.
3. Mavera API key

   Get your key from Mavera dashboard.
4. Environment variables

   export REDDIT_CLIENT_ID="...", export REDDIT_CLIENT_SECRET="...", export REDDIT_USER_AGENT="script:mavera:v1.0 (by /u/you)", and export MAVERA_API_KEY="mvra_live_xxxxx"
