Reddit Post Template Generator

Fill-in templates for the Reddit posts founders actually need: launches, feedback requests, AMAs, case studies and more.

Where it fits

Project-sharing subreddits that welcome launches, such as r/SideProject, r/buildinpublic and r/microsaas. Most big industry subreddits ban this format.

  • Lead with the problem, not the product.
  • Say you built it. Undisclosed self-promotion is what gets posts removed.
  • Stay in the thread for the first hour and answer every comment.

I built [product name] because [the problem it solves]

Hey everyone, I'm a [your role] and for a while [the problem it solves].

So I built [product name]: it [what it does, in one line]. It's made for [who it is for].

What it does today

  • The main thing: [what it does, in one line]
  • [one more feature that matters to your audience]
  • [what it deliberately does not do]

Why I'm posting

I'd really like honest feedback before I build more. Specifically: [what you want from readers]

Happy to answer anything in the comments.

Replace anything in [brackets] before you post. Paste the body into Reddit's Markdown editor so tables and lists keep their format. Written in your browser; nothing is sent anywhere.

The formats

8 Reddit post templates

What each format is for and where it usually fits.

Launch: "I built this"

Show a project you made, the story behind it, and ask for honest reactions.

Where it fits: Project-sharing subreddits that welcome launches, such as r/SideProject, r/buildinpublic and r/microsaas. Most big industry subreddits ban this format.

Feedback request

Ask for a critique of your landing page, pricing or onboarding.

Where it fits: Feedback-friendly communities and weekly "feedback Friday" or "show off" threads. In stricter subreddits, post it in the pinned weekly thread instead of as a new post.

Customer research question

Ask how people handle a problem today, without pitching anything.

Where it fits: The subreddits where your audience already talks shop. This format fits strict subreddits because it promotes nothing.

Lessons learned

A value-first story about what you learned, with the product as context.

Where it fits: Founder and industry subreddits that allow personal experience posts. Keep links out of the post body if the rules ban them.

Results breakdown

A numbers-first case study: what you did, what it produced, what it cost.

Where it fits: Marketing, growth and founder subreddits that allow case studies. Screenshots of real numbers help; vague claims get called out.

AMA (Ask Me Anything)

Offer your expertise and let the community ask questions.

Where it fits: Subreddits that allow AMAs. Many require you to message the moderators first and some ask for proof of identity.

Honest tool comparison

Compare the options you tested, including your own, with disclosure.

Where it fits: Subreddits where people ask "which tool should I use". Always disclose which product is yours; undisclosed comparisons get removed and reported.

Beta testers wanted

Recruit early users with a clear ask and something in return.

Where it fits: Startup and project subreddits, and weekly self-promotion threads in bigger communities. Check the rules: some ban recruiting outright.

The guide

Reddit posts that get replies, not removed

Reddit rewards posts that read like a person sharing something useful. These templates are built around that, but the details are yours to fill in.

Match the format to the subreddit

Launch and beta-tester posts belong in communities made for sharing projects, such as r/SideProject, r/buildinpublic and r/microsaas, all lenient about self-promotion in Bazzly's data. Industry subreddits usually prefer questions and experience: the customer research and lessons-learned formats fit there because they promote nothing.

Lead with value, disclose the rest

The first two lines decide whether anyone reads on. Put the problem, the number or the question there. If your product appears anywhere in the post, say it is yours: undisclosed self-promotion is the fastest way to get removed and reported.

Stay for the comments

A post that gets early replies from its author keeps the discussion going. Plan to spend the first hour after posting answering comments, thank people for criticism, and edit the post with what you learned.

Posts versus comments

Posting is one way to reach people on Reddit; replying is the other, and often the better one. Most people who need a product never post about it directly: they describe a problem in a thread someone else started. Read how buyers phrase those posts in our study of buying intent on Reddit.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can't find what you're looking for? Feel free to reach out.

Lead with the problem or the question, not with your product. Keep paragraphs short, use a list or a small table for details, be specific with numbers, and end with a question so people reply. Read the subreddit rules first and post in the format the community already upvotes.

Only where the rules allow it, and with disclosure. Most large subreddits are strict about self-promotion: in Bazzly's data, 73% of buying-intent posts were in subreddits that ban or heavily restrict it. Project-sharing subreddits such as r/SideProject welcome launches; elsewhere, use the customer research or lessons-learned formats, which promote nothing.

A specific, plain-language title that says what the reader gets: a question, a number, or a clear result. Reddit allows up to 300 characters, but titles get cut off in feeds, so put the important words first. Avoid clickbait and all caps; many subreddits remove them.

Only if the subreddit allows it. Many communities remove posts with links to your own site, or only allow them in weekly threads. When links are allowed, put the link at the end, after the value, and say it is yours.

No. It fills hand-written templates with what you type, in your browser. That keeps it free and private, and it keeps the posts in a human voice. Edit anything in [brackets] before posting.
