💡 SaaS Idea: BotProof Social: Bot detection and auto-mute/block for creators and community managers

Web tool that scores and detects likely bot accounts across X/Quora/Reddit replies and followers, auto-mutes/blocks via API or exports. Cleans replies, protects brand, improves engagement metrics.

Platform: web

Why it's a good idea?

Problem & Audience

Creators, brands and community managers on social platforms (X/Twitter, Reddit, Quora) are increasingly flooded by spam-bots and low-quality automated accounts. These bots:

  • Dilute engagement metrics (CTR, likes, meaningful replies)
  • Create a toxic or scam-heavy comment section that scares real users away
  • Waste the time of the account owner who has to hide / mute / block them manually

A tool that automatically detects likely bots in the follower list and under every new post/reply thread, then bulk-mutes or blocks them, promises an immediate, easy-to-understand ROI: cleaner timelines and higher-quality engagement.
