Workflow Steps
1
Define idea phrase
Single sentence describing the problem the product solves.
2
Generate 4-5 framings
'Tool to X', 'how do you X', 'X is too hard', 'wish there was X'.
3
Scavio reddit/search per framing
Pull top 10 threads per framing.
4
Aggregate engagement
Sum upvotes + comment count across all framings.
5
Rank ideas by score
Highest aggregate = strongest demand signal.
6
Pull top-5 threads per top idea
Quote-worthy threads with URL + title for founder review.
Python Implementation
Python
import os, requests
H = {'x-api-key': os.environ['SCAVIO_API_KEY']}
FRAMINGS = ['tool to {X}', 'how do you {X}', '{X} is too hard']
def score(idea):
total = 0
for f in FRAMINGS:
r = requests.post('https://api.scavio.dev/api/v1/reddit/search', headers=H, json={'query': f.replace('{X}', idea)}).json()
for p in r.get('posts', [])[:10]:
total += int(p.get('score', 0)) + int(p.get('comment_count', 0))
