The threads and feeds engines quote
AI answers lean on community threads and professional posts far more than most brands expect. Siftly finds the Reddit conversations where your category is being decided, drafts replies that read like a person, and plans a LinkedIn cadence from the topics your own citation data says are worth owning.
the action plan
Reddit is a citation surface, not a social channel
The threads worth your reply, ranked. Siftly surfaces live conversations in the subreddits where your category gets decided, each with the subreddit, how it was found, and how long the thread has been open. A stale thread is worth nothing; the clock is on the row for a reason.
Replies that read like a person. Each opportunity comes with a drafted reply in a persona you configure, sized for the subreddit it is going to. You edit it and post it yourself. Nothing is published on your behalf.
topics to target
LinkedIn, planned from your citation data
Post about what you are losing. The topic queue is built from citation evidence: questions where competitors are cited and you are not. That makes the content calendar an argument about visibility rather than a guess about engagement.
A week you can actually publish. Ideas become scheduled posts on a steady cadence, with the unscheduled ones visible so gaps are obvious. Each brief carries the reference articles and the citation requirements the post should satisfy.

Why AI Engines Cite Communities
How it works
How Reddit Opportunities Are Found
Watch the right communities
Siftly tracks the subreddits where your category is discussed, including the ones your brand is never mentioned in, which are usually the ones that matter most.
Score the thread, not the subreddit
An opportunity is a specific conversation with an unanswered question, recent activity, and relevance to a topic you track. Most threads in a relevant subreddit are not opportunities.
Draft in a persona
Each opportunity gets a reply drafted in the persona you configured for that community, at the length that community actually reads.
You post it
The draft is yours to edit and publish from your own account. Siftly does not post to communities on your behalf, because a brand account pretending to be a person is how you get banned.

How LinkedIn Topics Are Chosen
| Signal | What it means | What you post |
|---|---|---|
| Competitors cited, you are not | The question is being answered by someone else's page | A post that makes the argument in your own words |
| A topic you track with no coverage | You measure it but have published nothing against it | The first piece of coverage, then a page to follow |
| A thread you answered well | You already wrote the useful version once | Expand the reply into a post that stands alone |
| An earned citation | Something you published is being cited | Extend it, because the format is working |

Rules Of Engagement
Answer first
Lead with the answer, not with your product
One account
Post as a person, from a persona you actually maintain
Disclose
Say who you work for when the thread is about your category
Show up twice
A single reply is an ad; a pattern of them is a reputation
Getting started
Time to value, not time to configure
Day 1
Set the personas
Configure who is replying and in which communities. The persona sets the register of every draft, so a technical subreddit and a beginner one do not get the same voice.
Week 1
Work the action plan
Answer the threads with the strongest signal and the least time on the clock. Mark each one done as you post it, so the queue reflects reality.
Week 2
Publish the cadence
Turn the topic queue into a scheduled week on LinkedIn, then watch whether those topics start appearing in the answers you track.
