Reddit is helping businesses connect with customers using new smart tools. These tools are part of Reddit Pro, a service that helps brands join groups, answer questions, and share updates. The new features use computer programs (AI) to help businesses look friendly and join real conversations.
Reddit is a place where people talk honestly about their favorite things, like games, skincare, or food. Now, businesses can join these chats without sounding like ads.

What Reddit Pro’s New Tools Do
AI Writes Business Descriptions
When a business signs up for Reddit Pro, they type their website link. Reddit’s computer program then suggests simple descriptions for their profile. For example, a pet store might get options like:
- “Helping r/DogOwners find the best toys since 2015”
- “Experts in cat food for r/CatLovers”
The business picks the best one, saving time.
Show Real Customer Chats on Your Profile
Businesses can now share posts and comments from Reddit groups on their profiles. If people are talking about a product, the business can show those chats.
For example, a shoe company could share a post from r/Running where users discuss their favorite sneakers. This makes the business look trustworthy because real people are talking about them.
Find Popular Topics Fast
Reddit Pro’s Trends Tab lets businesses track words or phrases. If a toy company wants to know what kids like, they type “STEM toys” into the Trends Tab. It shows popular posts and discussions.
This helps brands:
- See what’s trending
- Answer common questions
- Join talks before others
Why This Helps Businesses
Reddit is where people ask for advice and share honest reviews. Over half of all online shopping chats happen here. For businesses, this is a chance to listen and help.
Jim Squires, a Reddit leader, said, “Businesses can grow by being part of real talks. Our tools help them do that without sounding fake.”
Reddit Is Growing Fast
Reddit made $392 million last quarter, up 61% from last year. Daily users grew to 108 million, up 31%. More people and brands are using Reddit for serious chats, not just jokes.
