01 THE IDEA

Agent Reach is a GitHub repo that gives AI agents the ability to pull data from Reddit, X, and YouTube simultaneously. The business idea is to use it to identify software categories where paying customers are still doing things manually — like exporting scheduling data to spreadsheets for payroll — and package those insights into actionable opportunity reports or sell them as a research retainer to founders and investors.

The deeper play is running recurring customer research for existing SaaS companies: monitoring complaint threads, identifying friction points, and delivering monthly insight summaries. Phrases like 'I export it every Friday' or 'does anyone know a workaround' are gold for product teams and copywriters alike. This service bridges the gap between raw social data and actionable product decisions.

03 THE VERDICT

This is a genuinely useful service that solves a real problem for founders who know they should do customer research but don't have time. Agent Reach reduces the collection burden to near zero, and the output — validated pain points with source posts — is immediately actionable. Package it as a $500/month research retainer for 20 clients and you have a real business.
