Reddit keyword tracking: every match kept, scored and searchable in the inbox

Updated 21 September 2026

Redwatcher is a Reddit monitoring tool. Tracks keywords, brand mentions and competitors across the subreddits you choose, scores every match for relevance, and alerts by email, Slack, Telegram or webhook around the clock. From $29/month per project.

What does a Reddit keyword tracker keep?

A Reddit keyword tracker on Redwatcher keeps every post and comment that matches a keyword, your brand or a competitor in the subreddits you name, and it keeps them whether they were sent to you or not. A match on your brand's name or a competitor's is a mention, and Reddit mentions covers those on their own. Each match sits in the inbox as a card: the title with the matched word highlighted, the subreddit, how long ago it was posted, a chip naming the term that matched, a line saying where the match was found, the score from 0 to 100, and the reason written under it. In the screenshot below the first card matched the phrase email marketing tool in a post's title, scored 94, and the reason says it is a buying decision in progress, with the requirements and the budget stated.

What do Relevant, Skipped and All mean?

Relevant holds the matches above the bar you set, which are the ones sent to your channels, Skipped holds the matches under the bar, which are kept and counted but not sent, and All holds both. The three are the tabs at the top of the inbox, and each one carries its count. In the screenshot above the tabs read Relevant 3, Skipped 41 and All 44, so 41 of the 44 matches in that view were not sent, and they are still in the inbox to read. If a match was skipped for the wrong reason, you open it, mark it as wrongly scored and say what was wrong, and it becomes a rule that every later match is judged against.

How do you find one keyword's matches in the inbox?

To find one keyword's matches, type it into the search box above the list, which is labelled Search your terms, or open the filter. The filter has two groups. When narrows the list to the last 7 days, the last 30 days or all time. Show narrows it to everything, your brand, your competitors or your keywords, and a third choice shows only new matches, only read ones, or all. The order is newest first or highest score first, and a control on the right sets the bar the tabs split on, which in the screenshot reads Score ≥ 70: Relevant holds the matches at 70 or above, Skipped holds the ones under it, and All shows both, with the ones under the bar dimmed. Each card has a Mark as read button, which turns into Mark as unread once it is pressed, and the Before you started block has a Dismiss button.

What does the Stats screen count for your keywords?

The Stats screen counts what was read across your subreddits, how many of those posts and comments matched your terms, and how many of the matches came in above your bar, for the last 6 hours, 24 hours, 7 days or 30 days. Above the counts a line says whether every subreddit due to be checked in the period was checked, and under them you see what share of the comments and posts were checked, and a bar for every check, hour by hour. The Stats screen is on every plan.

Does the tracking cover what was said before you started?

Redwatcher's tracking starts when you press Start, and the first session shows what was already there: up to three threads from the seven days before, in their own block labelled Before you started. Those three are shown so you can see what the subreddits held, and they are not counted as matches and are not sent anywhere. From that point on every match is kept, and the All time window in the filter reaches back to the day you started.

What happens when a tracked match is scored wrong?

When a tracked match is scored wrong, you open it, say what was wrong, and it becomes a rule that every later match is judged against. In the example, the thread that scored 94 is corrected to 38. The buyer wrote that they wanted something under $30 a month, and the correction saved in the screenshot below, captured 30 August 2026, records that the example project's own plans start at $100 a month. The corrected thread moves to the tab its new score puts it in.

What does tracking keywords cost with Redwatcher?
