Description
Posting on Reddit can feel like a minefield: every subreddit has its own moderators, automated bots, and unwritten rules, and a post that works perfectly in one community can get silently deleted in another. WillItStay works like a spell-checker, but instead of catching typos, it catches the reasons a Reddit post might get removed — before you ever hit "submit". You paste in your draft, and it tells you whether it's likely to survive Reddit's various layers of moderation, and how to rewrite it so it doesn't.
Under the hood, WillItStay checks a draft post against a database of more than 5,000 subreddit rule sets and evaluates removal risk across four distinct moderation paths: automated rule-based filters (AutoMod), human moderator review, Reddit's platform-wide spam filters, and shadowbans that silently hide a post or account without notice. For paid users, it also offers AI-assisted rewrites that adjust wording and structure to reduce flagged risk factors, along with post-publish tracking (72 hours on Pro, 7 days on Agency) to monitor whether a post actually survives after it goes live.
💬 Our review
The short version: WillItStay solves a narrow but genuinely painful problem — Reddit posts that vanish without warning — by predicting removal risk before you post, something no mainstream Reddit tool actually does.
Its two commonly cited "alternatives," Gummy Search and F5Bot, aren't really competitors on this specific job: Gummy Search is a broader Reddit research and audience-discovery tool for finding conversations and trends, and F5Bot is a free keyword-alert bot that notifies you when a term is mentioned somewhere on Reddit — neither one analyzes a draft against subreddit rules or predicts whether AutoMod, a moderator, Reddit's spam filters, or a shadowban will take your post down. That's an honest signal about this market: WillItStay is operating in a genuine niche with essentially no direct competition on removal prediction, which cuts both ways — it means less competitive pressure to keep improving, but also no established competitor to benchmark its accuracy claims against. At $29-59/month, the price is reasonable for anyone using Reddit as a serious marketing or launch channel where a single silently-removed post can mean a wasted launch day, but the free tier's 3 checks/month is really just a taste test — you'll hit the Pro tier fast if Reddit is a recurring part of your growth strategy. Worth trying the free tier first to see if the risk predictions actually match what happens to your posts before committing to a paid plan.
