Review criteria

Confirm the post shows a real problem, not only a keyword.
Check whether the author has enough context to qualify.
Lower priority for stale, vague, or unsafe threads.
Route strong posts into reply, CRM, or research workflows.

How to use the score

The score should explain why a thread deserves attention. It should not hide the judgment behind a number or push every relevant keyword toward outreach.

Use the score to decide the next action: prioritize fast review, inspect the context, route to an owner, save as research, or archive the match.

The disqualification checklist

Disqualify posts with no business context, no urgency, no budget, no authority, no problem clarity, stale timing, or high reply risk.

A lead can mention your category and still be a poor use of time if the poster is not likely to act.

False-positive library

Common false positives include students, hobbyists, freebie seekers, vendors, job posts, old threads, rage posts, theoretical debates, and broad opinion threads.

These posts create alert volume but rarely create pipeline.

Signal vs noise examples

A post asking for the best tool to replace a current vendor is stronger than a post asking what people generally like.

A post with a deadline, current workaround, and buying constraint is stronger than a post collecting random recommendations.

How Leadline uses disqualification

Disqualification keeps queues cleaner, helps reviewers focus, reduces bad replies, and protects teams from acting on every noisy mention.

The goal is not more Reddit posts. The goal is fewer, better conversations worth handling.

FAQ

Why disqualify Reddit leads before replying?

Because irrelevant or risky replies waste time and can hurt trust. Disqualification keeps the team focused on posts where engagement makes sense.

What is the biggest Reddit lead false positive?

Broad keyword matches are the biggest false positive. A post can mention your category without showing buying intent.
