## How do I find the Reddit threads AI engines cite?

Track the questions buyers ask AI and record every URL each answer cites, then filter for reddit.com. Gensiv does this daily on seven engines and groups the cited Reddit posts by subreddit, with the prompt and engine behind each citation, so you know which threads shape what AI recommends.

Included on every plan, from $29 a month, with a 7-day trial.

## Every cited thread, by subreddit

Cited posts over time, the most cited threads and a table of posts by subreddit, each tied to the prompts and engines that cited it.

- **Reddit citations**: See which Reddit threads AI answers cite in your category. YouTube is next.
- **Threads worth joining**: The Actions board suggests the cited Reddit threads where a helpful reply can earn a mention.
- **Citation trends**: Spot the domains that gain or lose citations from one week to the next.
- **Offsite mention outreach** (coming soon): Find cited pages that skip your brand and draft the outreach email.

## See Reddit next to every other source

Compare Reddit with the review sites, docs and blogs AI cites for the same prompts, so you know where a reply beats a new page.

- **Cited domains and URLs**: See every domain and page the answers cite, split by source type and engine.
- **Position of every cited URL**: See where each cited page sits in the answer, by engine and over time.
- **Actions board**: Turn tracking data into suggested fixes per client and track each one to done.
- **CSV and Excel exports**: Export prompts, responses, trends and Reddit citations into your own client decks.

## How Reddit tracking works

1. **Track buyer prompts**: Gensiv drafts unbranded prompts from your site and competitors, and runs them every day on the engines you pick.
2. **Collect cited threads**: Every Reddit post an answer cites is stored with its subreddit, the prompt, the engine and the date.
3. **Pick threads to join**: The Actions board suggests cited threads where a useful, disclosed reply from your team can earn a mention.
4. **Watch the citations move**: Trends show which sources gain or lose citations from week to week, Reddit threads included.

## Frequently asked questions

### Why do AI engines cite Reddit so often?

Reddit threads hold first-hand recommendations and comparisons in the words buyers use, and Google and OpenAI license Reddit data. Engines lean on them for best-of and alternatives questions.

### What is the best tool for responding to Reddit citations for LLMs?

Start with a tracker that shows which threads AI already cites for your prompts, then reply where your team has something useful to add. Gensiv lists those threads by subreddit and engine, and the Actions board suggests the ones worth joining.

### Does Gensiv post on Reddit for me?

No. Gensiv never posts on your behalf. A person on your team reads the thread, writes the reply and posts it under their own account, following the subreddit's rules.

### Is Gensiv a Reddit outreach tool?

Partly. Finding and suggesting cited threads is live. Drafted replies and outreach for new threads are coming soon and are marked on this page.

### Can I use AI-drafted replies on Reddit?

Many subreddits ban AI-written or promotional comments. Read each subreddit's rules, disclose who you work for and write the reply yourself. Gensiv flags the thread, it does not post it.

### Does Gensiv track YouTube too?

Not yet. Reddit comes first. YouTube is next.
