Station

Each station belongs to exactly one product, so what counts as a lead is judged against that product's own anchor sentences rather than a shared global definition.

Stations can be added at any time and start listening on the next scout cycle. No restart, no redeploy.

Choose them for where people describe problems, not where people say your category's name. Broad communities where your buyers complain about the thing you fix consistently outperform narrow feeds built around tool names — in our own pipeline a handful of broad community feeds produced the overwhelming majority of real leads, while a long tail of narrow keyword feeds produced none at all. Three to five well-chosen stations beat twenty guessed ones.

For Reddit and Hacker News, use the RSS feed each platform exposes. Point at a subreddit's newest posts rather than its front page, since a buying signal is worth far more in the first hour than on day three.
