GummySearch stopped taking signups in November 2025. ClientRadar picks up where it left off for the part most people used it for — finding real conversations. It runs in your own logged-in browser (no shared bots, no paid API), watches the same communities, and scores each thread for buying intent so you know who to answer.

ClientRadar is the closest working alternative to GummySearch for people who used it to find clients rather than to write market-research reports. GummySearch was a Reddit audience-research tool that stopped new signups on 30 November 2025 after it couldn't reach a Reddit commercial API agreement. ClientRadar runs as a Chrome extension inside your own logged-in browser session — so it carries none of the per-call API cost that ended GummySearch's model — and watches the subreddits (plus Facebook groups, X and LinkedIn) you already belong to. Its Audiences view lets you rebuild your GummySearch setup in about five minutes: describe your niche and it assembles the communities for you, or paste your old subreddit list. It then scores each matching thread 0–100 for buying intent with the reasoning shown, and drafts a reply in your voice that you approve and send yourself. If you used GummySearch for deep niche clustering and trend research, a dedicated research tool may suit you better; if you used it to find and win customers, this is the migration path.
GummySearch didn't fail as a product; it was killed by distribution. Reddit closed self-serve API access and moved to commercial licensing, and the founder chose to shut down rather than operate unlicensed. That same shift is the lens for choosing what comes next: how a tool gets its data, and what it does on your account, now matters as much as what it finds.
GummySearch was profitable to the end — it was the Reddit API cost (roughly $0.24 per 1,000 calls) that made a constantly-scanning server tool unsustainable. Any replacement that scans thousands of subreddits from the cloud inherits that same toll, and the same fragility, the moment Reddit changes terms again.
The tools marketed hardest to ex-GummySearch users often auto-post or auto-DM from managed accounts — exactly the behaviour Reddit's 2026 detection scores and removes. Swapping a research tool for an automation tool trades a data problem for a ban problem.
Keyword pingers email you every match with no ranking. You still wade through dozens of 'interesting but not now' threads to find the two people actually ready to hire — the triage GummySearch users didn't have to do themselves.
For deep audience clustering and trend graphs, Reddit's API lockdown means nothing fully replaces GummySearch. But if what you actually did with it was find customers, a session-based client finder is the practical successor — and we'll say so honestly rather than overclaim.
The Audiences view is built for exactly this move — no CSV wrangling, no re-learning a new dashboard.
Open the Audiences view and either paste your old subreddit list or just describe your niche — ClientRadar assembles a starting set of active communities for you. Add your Brand DNA so drafts sound like you. That's the five-minute part.
ClientRadar reads the feeds you're already logged into, in your own browser, on your own schedule. No paid Reddit API, no separate scraper, no fleet of warmed-up accounts — the distribution channel Reddit can't revoke or invoice.
Each matching thread gets a 0–100 buying-intent score with the reasoning attached — the ranking GummySearch never did. Only the post text and your Brand DNA go to AI; your leads and CRM stay on your device. You get a shortlist, not a firehose.
For threads worth it, ClientRadar drafts a helpful, on-topic reply that answers the person first and mentions you second. You edit and send it yourself — nothing posts automatically — and a local CRM keeps follow-ups from slipping.
ClientRadar is designed around the reality that ended GummySearch and is now reshaping the whole category: platforms punish automation and API-toll scanning, and reward humans who help. Here's what that means for your accounts.
Because it runs in your own logged-in browser session rather than Reddit's paid commercial API, ClientRadar avoids the per-call bill that made a constantly-scanning server tool unsustainable. The economic problem that ended GummySearch isn't part of this design.
ClientRadar never posts for you. It drafts; you read, edit, and click send. That single rule keeps you clear of the automated-behaviour patterns Reddit's 2026 systems flag — and respects each community's self-promo etiquette.
There's no cloud database of your leads. Your Audiences, notes, pipeline and CRM live locally in your browser — export or delete them any time. Only the public post text and your writing style are ever sent to AI, and only when ClientRadar checks a thread.
If GummySearch was how you spotted 'looking for' and 'can anyone recommend' posts, ClientRadar does that across Reddit, Facebook groups, X and LinkedIn — and drafts the reply so you can answer first.
Rebuild your tracked communities as Audiences, then let ClientRadar score and shortlist the real opportunities instead of staffing someone to refresh Reddit all day.
Session-based reading is the one model the 2026 platform crackdown doesn't touch. If watching GummySearch get cut off made you wary of cloud-scraping tools, this is the safer footing.
If you replaced GummySearch with an auto-reply tool and had a post removed or an account flagged, the human-on-every-send model lets you rebuild on Reddit safely, one genuinely useful reply at a time.
GummySearch stopped new signups on 30 November 2025 after it couldn't reach a commercial Reddit API agreement. Reddit closed self-serve API access and moved to paid licensing; the founder chose to shut the tool down rather than operate against Reddit's terms. It closed profitable — killed by distribution cost, not lack of demand.
For finding and winning customers, yes — it watches the same kinds of communities and adds intent scoring, drafted replies and a local CRM GummySearch never had. For deep audience research (niche clustering, trend graphs), no tool fully replaces GummySearch, because that depended on the Reddit API that's now locked down. We'd rather tell you that plainly than overclaim.
Yes. In the Audiences view you can paste your existing subreddit list to recreate your setup, or describe your niche and let ClientRadar assemble a starting set of active communities for you. Most people are up and running in a few minutes.
ClientRadar is built to avoid exactly that. It reads in your own logged-in session and never auto-posts — it drafts, and you send every reply yourself at human pace. It doesn't run a swarm of accounts or push the same link everywhere. No tool can promise zero risk on someone else's platform, and your own posting habits and respect for community rules still matter most.
There's a free plan so you can judge it on your own communities before paying — no card needed. Paid plans start at €29/mo billed annually and add Reddit plus the other networks; one signed client covers the year. See the pricing page for the current breakdown.
