| description | PainOnSocial platform help — AI-powered Reddit pain point discovery with frequency/severity scoring, evidence-backed insights with real quotes and links, AI solution generation, 800+ profession-based community recommendations. Use when PainOnSocial scans aren't surfacing relevant pain points for your niche, you're unsure which subreddits to select for your target audience, pain point scores seem off and you can't tell which problems are worth solving, you want to validate a SaaS idea using real Reddit conversations before building, you're looking for a GummySearch replacement for Reddit pain point research, or you need to compare PainOnSocial vs Reddinbox vs SparkToro for idea validation. Do NOT use for social listening strategy across tools (use /sales-social-listening) or choosing between social listening platforms (use /sales-social-listening). |

- D) Understanding pricing / deciding between Starter and Professional
- E) Comparing PainOnSocial to other Reddit research tools
- F) Something else — describe it
-
What's your goal?
- A) Validate a SaaS idea before building
- B) Find gaps in an existing market
- C) Discover feature requests for my existing product
- D) Research a niche I'm considering entering

-
Current setup?
- A) Haven't used PainOnSocial yet — evaluating
- B) On the free trial
- C) Starter plan ($19/mo)

If the user's request already provides most of this context, skip directly to the relevant step.
