How Reddit Scout Surfaces Threads Worth Engaging With
Retrieve the top-cited Reddit threads for a GEO cluster over Content Hub MCP, ranked by citation volume, with brand mention status for each thread.
AI models cite Reddit threads in addition to your own content. A thread can carry significant citation weight across ChatGPT and Perplexity without mentioning your brand.
Reddit Scout derives these threads from LLM citations:
- When you create a GEO cluster in Infrasity, you add target prompts. These are the queries and recommendation searches that your buyers ask AI models.
- Infrasity runs the prompts across ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini, and Claude, and captures every source URL that the models cite.
- When a model cites a Reddit discussion, Reddit Scout indexes it and aggregates its citation volume across the cluster.
These threads already rank and receive citations from LLMs for your cluster prompts. They identify the forum conversations that AI models trust, so you can prioritize where to comment.
Before you start
- Create a GEO cluster and add prompts to it.
- Complete several runs, so that Reddit Scout has citation data to check threads against.
Fetch Reddit citations with brand mentions
Request the Reddit citations for the Developer Marketing cluster in the Infrasity organization, and include brand mentions.
Claude first returns the cluster scope:
- Window: 180 days
- Threads cited across the cluster prompt runs: 217
- Total citations: 1,363
- Status: live-checked
A single table follows, ranked by citation volume. Each row shows the citation count, the share of total cluster citations, the engines that cite the thread, and whether Infrasity is mentioned. The combined view makes gaps visible. Ranks 3, 4, and 5 each have significant citation volume and no brand mention.
Claude then summarizes the overall results:
- 211 threads were live-checked, and 6 have a confirmed mention. The mention rate is 2.8%.
- The rate was approximately 40% in March, when only a few prompts had been evaluated. It declined as the evaluated prompt pool and thread count grew to 217.
- The rank 1 thread drives nearly one third of all citations and includes a mention. It is the highest-leverage thread to monitor.
Claude offers to retrieve the full 50-thread list, citation trends, or competitor share of voice next.
Request takeaways
Ask Claude to convert the ranked table into takeaways. Claude returns five findings:
- Concentration. The rank 1 thread receives more citations than ranks 2 and 3 combined.
- Engine split. ChatGPT cites nearly every top thread more than Perplexity does. Gemini and Claude citations are almost absent.
- Mention rate. The brand mention rate is low and declining. The mentions that exist are in high-traffic threads. Two of the top six threads by volume include a mention and account for 38% of all citations.
- Thread growth. Growth has plateaued since mid-August. The citation surface appears fully mapped for the current prompt set.
- Opportunity. Ranks 3 through 5 account for roughly 8% of total citations and have no brand presence. The rank 3 thread is the best single target, because ChatGPT citations carry significant weight in this cluster.
The full workflow, from cluster prompt runs to a ranked table of cited Reddit threads with brand mention status, runs in one Claude Desktop conversation.
