F5Bot
F5Bot is a free, no-frills keyword alerter. Give it your keywords and it emails you when they appear on Reddit or Hacker News. It is a great, cheap way to start detecting mentions.
Subportly
Subportly is the part F5Bot does not do. Those email alerts have no owner, no status, and no record. In Subportly each one becomes a tracked conversation in a shared inbox, assigned to a teammate, replied to from the right account, and resolved.
How Subportly and F5Bot fit together
- Forward or webhook F5Bot alerts into Subportly so they stop piling up in an inbox folder.
- Turn a stream of emails into a real queue with owners and statuses.
- Reply, assign, add internal notes, and resolve, all from one place.
- F5Bot is a fine free detector. Subportly is the workflow it was never meant to be.
Bottom line
F5Bot finds mentions for free. Subportly is where your team handles them. A natural pairing for teams starting out.
