LeadPerchGummySearch alternative
Looking for a GummySearch alternative? Here is an honest option.
GummySearch has announced it is shutting down on December 1, 2026. If you relied on it to find people asking for a product like yours on Reddit, LeadPerch does that job and adds Hacker News and X/Twitter. It is a new, small product, so here is exactly what it does and does not do.
What LeadPerch does
- You describe your product and add keywords (for example "alternative to Mailchimp" or "looking for a CRM").
- Every day LeadPerch searches recent Reddit posts, Hacker News stories and comments, and X/Twitter posts for those keywords.
- Each match gets an intent score from 0 to 100, from AI with a heuristic fallback, so posts from people actively shopping rise to the top.
- For strong leads it drafts a helpful reply. You edit it and post it yourself from your own account.
What it does not do
LeadPerch never posts, comments, likes, follows or sends DMs for you. That keeps your accounts safe and your replies human. It is not yet a full audience-research suite: there are no subreddit audience analytics or saved-pattern reports like GummySearch had. If you mainly used GummySearch for deep audience research, you may want an additional tool for that.
