ForumScout
Live keyword monitoring across forums, with AI filters that surface the posts that matter.
Most founders miss buyer intent because it lives in forums, Reddit threads, and niche communities—not in your inbox. ForumScout tracks live keyword mentions across the internet so you can jump in while the conversation is still hot. It also filters the noise so you see the posts that can turn into leads, content, and product fixes.
Your customers are already talking. You’re just not there.
Today, ForumScout is taking a swing at the laziest growth mistake in SaaS: waiting for people to “discover” you.
If your market hangs out on Reddit, forums, and small communities, you don’t need more tweets. You need timing.
Here’s the deal: ForumScout tracks live mentions of any keyword across the internet and drops them into a feed you can act on.
What it does (without the busywork)
Set keywords. Sit back.
ForumScout checks for new mentions every hour, so you catch fresh threads before they rot into “too late”. That matters when you’re trying to reply, offer help, or spot a buying signal like “any alternatives?” or “what should I use?”
And it gets better.
The product leans hard on AI filtering. You tell it what you want - like “only show posts where someone asks for a tool” or “only show complaints I can fix” - and it cuts the junk. Less doomscrolling. More doing.
The features that make it stick
AI filtering (Starter and up): Useful when one keyword explodes and you can’t read it all.
Competitive intelligence (Pro): A dashboard that compares share of voice and sentiment vs competitors, then points at their weak spots so you can position against them.
Sentiment + emotion tracking (Pro): Charts over time, plus a per-mention emotion breakdown (Plutchik model) so you can tell if “buzz” means love or rage.
Audience insights (Pro): See where mentions come from, which communities matter, and which users keep showing up.
AI mention sorting (Pro): Mentions get grouped into categories automatically, so patterns pop faster.
Pricing that maps to reality
ForumScout starts at $19/month (Starter) for 5,000 mentions/month, 10 keywords, 3 months of history, hourly updates, AI filtering, and unlimited seats.
Pro runs $49/month with more volume, deeper history, and the analytics-heavy stuff (competitors, sentiment/emotions, audience, sorting). There’s also an Ultra tier at $129/month for teams swimming in mentions.
But there’s a catch: volume lies.
Most tools sell you dashboards. ForumScout sells you shots on goal - threads you can reply to, posts you can turn into content, and complaints you can turn into roadmap wins.
If you’re a solo founder, marketer, or PM trying to find demand where it actually lives, ForumScout is built for that grind.
