The leads below come directly from a production campaign run on the platform. Nothing was cherry-picked or cleaned up — you're seeing the same output the user received in their Excel export.
Filters drive accuracy
Our job is to help you tighten filters — rating thresholds, price levels, review minimums, categories — so the AI scores leads more accurately for your specific use case.
We don't guarantee conversion
Lead quality depends entirely on your filters, persona description, and scoring thresholds. Lode Leads finds, scores, and enriches — but whether a lead converts is up to how well your filters match your actual business needs. The tighter your criteria, the higher the qualification rate.
I'm trying to find Reddit threads where I can engage authentically and mention our product — LodeLeads, an AI lead gen tool. I don't want to spam, I want to find threads where the conversation is relevant. Can you help?
Reddit market research is exactly what we do for this. We find threads where your product is genuinely relevant, score them by engagement opportunity, and suggest reply angles that add value first. Which subreddits do you want to search? r/Entrepreneur, r/startups, r/sales?

Market Research Summary

- • Lead gen is #1: “For us it's definitely lead generation and marketing diversification.” (58 upvotes)
- • Founder overwhelm: “Wearing too many hats. Handling marketing, sales, operations, and sometimes even customer support.” (48 upvotes)
- • Sales tool friction: “The problem isn't discipline. It's that every tool assumes you have 5 minutes after a call to sit down and log things properly.”

Top Engagement Opportunity
“Entrepreneurs, what's your biggest challenge currently with your business?”
Suggested Answer:
“Lead gen is the universal hurdle. What made a difference for me was consolidating the search. Instead of juggling separate searches on LinkedIn, Google Maps, and social media, I use a single tool with an AI agent that scouts across all of them based on my ideal customer profile.”
