💡 Pro Tip — YouTube’s API quotas can be a bottleneck when you’re pulling data at scale. ScraperNode is a community node with dedicated scrapers for channels, videos, and comments — no quota limits, just structured data.

Description

What it does

Automatically monitors multiple subreddits daily, identifies trending posts with high engagement, and delivers AI-powered summaries directly to your inbox. Never miss important discussions in your favorite communities again.

Perfect for

Investors tracking market sentiment, researchers monitoring industry discussions, content creators finding trending topics, or anyone wanting curated Reddit insights without endless scrolling.

Apps used

Reddit, OpenRouter (GPT-4o mini), Gmail

How it works

1. Triggers daily at your chosen time across all specified subreddits
2. Fetches hot posts from the last 24 hours with scores above 30 upvotes
3. Sorts posts by engagement score to prioritize trending content

5. Generates concise AI summaries for each high-value thread
6. Compiles summaries into a clean HTML email digest
7. Delivers the digest to your Gmail inbox with clickable Reddit links
