Subreddit stats that actually help you ship.
Most subreddit stats tools show you charts. Subscribers up. Posts per day. Cute. None of that tells a founder whether real demand for their idea lives there. Gorilla flips it. Paste an idea, get back the subreddits with the highest concentration of buying intent for it, with the posts and the scores attached.
What you get in one run
- The subreddits Gorilla picked for your idea, with size and activity.
- The exact posts that scored highest for buying intent in each one.
- Direct links to each post and OP for outreach.
- CSV/JSON export so you can keep your own analytics.
Why "subreddit growth" is the wrong metric for founders
A subreddit can grow fast and have zero people asking for your tool. It can stay flat for years and still be where your buyers post weekly. The metric that matters isn't subscriber growth, it's intent density. How often does someone in this subreddit say "looking for", "tired of", "alternative to", or "wish there was a tool that"? That's the number Gorilla actually computes for you, per subreddit, per run.
How it works
- You paste a one-sentence idea.
- Gorilla expands it into 20+ phrasings of buying intent.
- It picks the most relevant subreddits and scopes searches to them.
- Every match gets an AI intent score. You get a ranked list, by subreddit.
Total time: under two minutes. Cost: $0.99 per run, $3.99/wk Pro, or $149.99 lifetime.
Subreddit analytics for the validation phase
If you're pre-product or pre-launch, this is the right shape of analytics for you. Forget growth dashboards. You want to know: do enough people in this room have my problem to make it worth talking to them? A single Gorilla run answers that question for the top 5-10 subreddits at once.
Subreddit growth tracker for content founders
If you make content (newsletter, blog, YouTube), the question shifts. You want subreddits where your content angle resonates. Run Gorilla with your content angle as the idea, and you get a ranked list of subreddits where that angle lands. Then post there.
What we don't do
We don't do historical subscriber charts. We don't do mod-tools. We don't do scheduled posts. There are good tools for those jobs (GummySearch, Syften, Redreach). Use them. We're sharper at one thing: turning your idea into a ranked list of where the demand actually is.
Beyond Reddit
The same run also covers X, YouTube and TikTok. So you don't just get subreddit stats. You get a comparison: which platform has the highest demand density for your idea? Often the answer surprises you. We wrote about that in where your first 100 users hide.
