How we're building No Coders on Reddit with this automation [Behind the Scenes]

How We Semi-Automated Answering Bubble.io Questions on Reddit

Engaging with the Bubble.io community is essential for sharing knowledge and growing our platform. To streamline our responses on the Bubble subreddit, we’ve built a semi-automated system that detects new posts, analyzes their content, and generates helpful AI-powered responses based on our extensive video library.

Here’s how it works and how we ensure high-quality, relevant answers without spamming Reddit.

How Our System Detects Reddit Questions

Instead of using the Reddit API, we rely on Reddit's RSS feed to detect new posts in the Bubble.io subreddit. This allows us to track discussions in real time without violating Reddit’s policies on automation.

Step 1: Filtering Posts with AI

• When a new post appears in the Bubble.io subreddit RSS feed, our system evaluates it using GPT-4o mini to determine if it’s a genuine question or a self-promotion post.
• If the post is not a question, the workflow stops.
• If it is a question, we proceed to find the most relevant answers from our content library.

How We Match Questions to Our Video Tutorials

We have a custom-built knowledge base powered by Xano. This database contains vector embeddings of over 500 video tutorials, transcripts, and articles from our platform.

Step 2: Finding the Best Matches

• The question from Reddit is vectorized and compared to our database.
• Our system retrieves three of the most relevant videos or articles that closely match the question.
• These results are formatted as structured data, including video titles and excerpts from transcripts.

How AI Generates Helpful Responses

Once we have the most relevant content, we use Claude 3.5 Sonnet to craft a detailed response.

Step 3: Structuring the AI-Powered Answer

• We pass the retrieved videos and transcripts into Claude 3.5 Sonnet and instruct it to generate a natural, helpful response based on the user's question.
• The AI incorporates insights from our tutorials to provide a well-reasoned answer that includes direct links to our content.
• This AI-generated response is sent to our company Slack, where we manually review before posting it on Reddit.

Why We Chose a Semi-Automated Approach

Reddit discourages automated AI-generated posts, so we manually verify every response before posting. This ensures:

• High-quality, human-reviewed answers
• Relevant and accurate responses based on real Bubble.io knowledge
• Compliance with Reddit’s guidelines
