What this page is

This page quotes r/SaaSMarketing's rules as ThreadFox read them on 2026-09-24. The quoted text is the community's; the verdict above is our reading of it. Conditions often decide whether a post fits (a required thread, flair, posting day, account age or karma), and r/SaaSMarketing's current rules on Reddit always win over this page.

Free, for a specific product: a researched Reddit plan by email (communities whose rules fit your post, quoted and dated), or ThreadFox Lite, read-only tools an AI assistant can use to read a community's current rules itself, through your own Chrome (Claude Code: claude mcp add threadfox-lite -- uvx threadfox-lite). For an assistant that also writes and posts within each community's rules, the ThreadFox kit is $49 once.

Want to post here? Get ThreadFox ($49): your AI (Claude Desktop, Claude Code or Codex) reads a community's current rules, writes one post that fits and posts once from your own Chrome. No Claude? We'll post for you ($99 per 30-day campaign). Free: a Reddit launch plan for your product, ThreadFox Lite or the posting checklist by email.

A community dedicated to sharing and discussing all aspects of SaaS marketing, from super tactical stuff all the way up to overarching strategy. If you're a SaaS founder and you're making $5K-$500K MRR, consider joining our premium mastermind community StartupSauce.com as well.

Where to post: Helpful SaaS-marketing post that mentions your SaaS/blog/company where relevant; blog posts with the main ideas in the body and the link at the end

What it requires: Mention only if relevant, valuable and helpful; overdoing it is spam (ban); no unsolicited direct sales, no PM requests; blog links only at the end of a value post; no 'build in public' or 'what are you building' posts; no AI-generated posts

What its rules say about promotion

Submission Guidelines
Follow the Reddit site-wide rules and please treat others with respect, stay on-topic, and avoid non-productive self-promotion. No spam. If you do you'll get one warning, then you'll be banned. If you're not sure if you can post something, ask one of the mods first. Definitely as for permission rather than forgiveness ;)
No Direct Sales Or Non-Productive Self-Promotion
It's ok to mention your SaaS/blog/company IF it's relevant, adds value and is actually helpful for someone reading. Overdoing it is considered spam and will result in a ban. Direct sales that are unsolicited are forbidden as well. No PM requests please, and no promotion for other communities outside Reddit. No promotion of other communities.
Blog Posts
You may submit your blog post BUT please post the main ideas rather than just a link without context. You need to provide value to people through your post and not simply present what you're talking about in your article. The more value you provide in the body of the Reddit post, the safer it is to say that it won't be removed. The only way a link is allowed is at the end of the post (“Originally posted here”), unless highly relevant (don't abuse this). Anything else will be removed/banned.
No "Build in Public" Posts
Don't post these. 99% add zero value whatsoever, and are just spammy self-promo. Nobody cares about the random feature you just built. Unless you have valuable insights to share, it will be removed.
No "What are you building?" Posts
These are just spammy self-promo and will be removed. If you want to show up in AI and Google search results, find a way to add value.

What its rules say about AI and bots

No AI Slop
Don't be lazy and copy/paste from ChatGPT to boost karma or fake engagement. It's obvious, it's spammy, and it creates a lot of noise that distracts attention away from legitimately valuable and helpful discussion. If you do this, you'll be banned. In particular, don't use any tools that monitor Reddit and then respond with an AI comment. The world doesn't need more of that. Solve a real problem instead.

What the written rules don't show

  • Unpublished minimums. Many communities remove posts from new or low-karma accounts through AutoModerator settings that are not on the rules page, often before a moderator sees them.
  • Reddit's own filters. Reddit's site-wide spam filters can remove posts from accounts that mostly share links to their own site, in any community.
  • The community's norms. Many communities see themselves as peers, not an audience: post where you already take part, and make the post worth reading without the link.
