Reddit Ban Risk Analyzer

The Reddit Ban Risk Analyzer scores any planned Reddit post for ban risk before it is published. It evaluates the post title, body text, and target subreddit against known moderation trigger patterns to produce a Low, Medium, or High risk classification along with a 0-100 numerical score. Each flagged element receives a specific explanation so you can understand exactly what is likely to trigger removal.

Reddit moderators and automated spam filters look for specific patterns: overly promotional language, direct calls to action, commercial links, self-referential framing, and subreddit-specific violations. The Ban Risk Analyzer encodes these patterns and applies them to your draft before you post, turning a reactive 'why was my post removed?' into a proactive 'here's how to fix it first.'

Marketers, founders, and community managers use this tool as a final gate before submitting any Reddit post. A post that receives a score above 60 should be rewritten using the improved version the tool provides. Posts below 30 are generally safe across most subreddits, though you should always verify community-specific rules.

Reddit's moderation infrastructure operates on two layers: automated spam filters that process every post instantly based on account signals and content patterns, and human moderators who review flagged content and enforce community-specific rules. The automated layer catches the most obvious promotional patterns, keyword triggers, link domains on blocklists, low-karma account restrictions, before any human reviewer sees the post. Understanding which triggers are automated versus human-reviewed determines the priority of risk mitigation.

The most commonly flagged patterns are: starting a post with your product name or company, including URLs to your own domain without sufficient community karma, using phrases like 'check out,' 'excited to share,' or 'we built' in the opening, and posting identical or near-identical content across multiple subreddits. Each of these is detectable by automated systems within seconds of posting. The Ban Risk Analyzer flags all of these patterns explicitly so you can eliminate them before they trigger removal.
