ReplyGuy finds mentions. EaseClaw finds buyers.
ReplyGuy is one of the closest tools to EaseClaw, and it gets the important thing right: it drafts, you send. So this is not a safety pitch. It is about what makes it through the filter. Here is an honest, first-hand comparison, including where ReplyGuy is the better pick.
What ReplyGuy gets right
ReplyGuy is a genuinely good tool, and it would be dishonest to pretend otherwise. It watches Reddit, X and Hacker News for the keywords you care about, and when someone mentions your space, it drafts a reply that works your product into the conversation naturally. It is affordable, it is quick to set up, and the entry plan starts at $10 a month.
Most important, it leaves the sending to you. You read the suggestion, edit it, and post it from your own account. On a platform like Reddit, where automated posting is a fast route to a ban, that is the correct design. EaseClaw keeps that exact model. Neither tool will ever hit send for you.
One note for accuracy: ReplyGuy’s pricing page uses the phrase “auto-replies,” but its own homepage says you edit and post the reply yourself. So the wording is looser than the behaviour. EaseClaw states it plainly instead: the human always sends.
ReplyGuy finds keyword mentions on three platforms and lets you sort the buyers out yourself. EaseClaw scores buying intent across eleven sources and hands you only the strong ones, already drafted in your voice. Pick ReplyGuy if you want the cheapest way to track a few keywords on Reddit, X and Hacker News. Pick EaseClaw if you would rather see fewer, warmer leads and skip the sifting.
EaseClaw vs ReplyGuy
Two tools with the same honest model. The difference is what reaches you and how it arrives.
| ReplyGuy | EaseClaw | |
|---|---|---|
| What it watches | Reddit, X and Hacker News for posts that contain your keywords. | Eleven sources: Reddit, Hacker News, X, Stack Overflow, GitHub, Quora, Indie Hackers, Product Hunt, Medium, LinkedIn and the open web. |
| How it decides what reaches you | Keyword match. If a post mentions your term, it surfaces, and you judge whether the person is actually a buyer. | Buying intent, scored 0 to 100 by Claude. Only posts scoring 40 or higher reach you, so vendors, tutorials and tourists are filtered out before you ever see them. |
| What it hands you | A suggested reply written to work your product into the conversation. | A reply drafted in your own voice, built from a profile of what you sell and who buys it, not a generic product mention. |
| Setup | You pick the keywords to track yourself. | You paste your website. EaseClaw reads it, works out your buyer-intent phrases, and proposes them for you to approve or edit. |
| Who sends the message | You do. ReplyGuy drafts, you post it by hand. That is the safe, correct model. | You do, too. EaseClaw drafts and hands you the permalink. It can never post, send or DM. That is a hard product rule. |
| Free sources included | Coverage is tied to your paid keyword count. | Hacker News, Stack Overflow and GitHub are the free backbone on every plan, so your net is wide before you spend a paid keyword. |
| For AI agents | No agent interface. | An MCP server, REST API and CLI on every plan, so Claude Code or Cursor can pull and draft leads directly. |
Pricing, side by side
ReplyGuy’s plans are priced by keyword count and replies per month. Annual billing takes roughly half off. Figures are from its public pricing page in July 2026.
| ReplyGuy | EaseClaw | |
|---|---|---|
| Try it | 3-day trial | $9 for 7 days (Starter & Pro) |
| Entry | $10 / mo · Small (5 keywords, 20 replies) | $49 / mo · Starter |
| Mid | $49 / mo · Pro (5 keywords, 100 replies) | $99 / mo · Professional |
| Higher | $99 / mo · Business (25 keywords, 300 replies) | $199 / mo · Business |
| Top | $199 / mo · Enterprise (100 keywords, 1,000 replies) | $199 / mo · Business |
Honest read: at the very bottom ReplyGuy is cheaper. From the $49 and $99 tiers up the two are effectively the same price, so at that level you are choosing on lead quality and source coverage, not on cost.
Is EaseClaw actually right for you?
- You are tired of sifting keyword mentions to find the one real buyer.
- You want buyers wherever they post, not only Reddit, X and Hacker News.
- You’d rather the free sources (HN, Stack Overflow, GitHub) come built in.
- You want a draft in your voice from a profile of your business, not a generic product mention.
- You want your AI agent (Claude Code, Cursor) to pull and draft leads over MCP.
- You want the cheapest entry and $10 a month fits your budget better.
- Your buyers really do only gather on Reddit, X and Hacker News.
- You are comfortable judging intent yourself and don’t need a score doing it for you.
If that is your setup, ReplyGuy is a solid, affordable pick, and we’d rather say so than sell you the wrong tool.
Getting started takes about two minutes
There is nothing to migrate. Where ReplyGuy asks you to choose keywords, EaseClaw reads your site and proposes them for you:
- Paste your website. EaseClaw reads it to work out what you sell and who your ideal buyer is.
- Confirm the keywords and sources. It proposes buyer-intent phrases; you approve or edit, and pick which platforms to watch.
- Review your first leads. The agent scans, scores, and drafts. You read the leads and send the replies you like.
