SignalPipe is an agentic sales pipeline that monitors Reddit, Hacker News, and RSS feeds 24/7 for buying-intent signals. It uses AI to score each signal, draft a reply, and surface only real leads for human review and approval before anything is sent.

How does SignalPipe detect buying intent?

SignalPipe uses a three-stage pipeline: a keyword gate for cheap pre-filtering, OpenAI text-embedding-3-small for semantic similarity scoring against your anchor sentences, and a three-model LLM swarm (Optimist, Analyst, Skeptic) that evaluates each post independently. A hard skeptic veto suppresses any signal the most skeptical judge dismisses.

Does SignalPipe send messages automatically?

No. Every message requires human approval before it is sent. SignalPipe drafts the reply and queues it for your review — you approve, edit, or reject each one. Nothing is sent without your explicit sign-off.

What platforms does SignalPipe monitor?

SignalPipe monitors Reddit (via subreddit RSS feeds), Hacker News (via hnrss.org keyword feeds), and any RSS-compatible feed. You can add as many sources as you want per product.

How is SignalPipe different from Clay or Apollo?

Clay enriches contact lists you already have. Apollo is a cold email database. SignalPipe generates net-new leads by detecting live buying signals — finding people who are actively posting that they need what you sell, right now, in public communities.

SignalPipe has four tiers: BYOK ($19/mo — bring your own LLM key, 3 products, 50 leads/day, 1,000 prospects), Starter ($49/mo — 2 products, 25 leads/day, 500 prospects), Growth ($149/mo — 10 products, 250 leads/day, 5,000 prospects), and Scale ($499/mo — unlimited everything). Open Source is free for self-hosters. The first 100 waitlist members get 50% off for 3 months.

Does SignalPipe work with NVIDIA NeMoClaw?

Yes — fully compatible out of the box. NeMoClaw is NVIDIA's enterprise distribution of OpenClaw, so any OpenClaw plugin installs and runs on NeMoClaw without modification. For on-prem deployments, SignalPipe also supports local model inference: set COMPANION_LLM_PROVIDER=openai_compatible and point it at a locally running Nemotron or any OpenAI-compatible endpoint. Your leads, prospect data, and generated messages never leave your infrastructure.

Can I run SignalPipe fully on-premises?

Yes. Self-host the FastAPI backend on your own server, connect it to your own PostgreSQL database, and configure the companion message generation to use a local model via any OpenAI-compatible endpoint (Nemotron via NeMoClaw, Ollama, LM Studio, vLLM). The only external call that remains is the OpenAI embedding API for signal scoring — and that can be swapped for a local embedding model by request.

What is r/Entrepreneur?

r/Entrepreneur is one of Reddit's largest business communities with 2M+ members. It spans small business owners, startup founders, freelancers, and side-project builders. Members post business questions, share wins, and frequently ask for software tool recommendations. The buyer profile is broad — catching the right niche signal here requires precise anchor sentences.

What do buying signals look like on r/Entrepreneur?

High volume means high noise — keyword pre-filtering is critical. Look for posts combining a product category with a buying intent phrase: "best tool for", "looking for software to", "anyone using X for Y", "switched from... what else should I try". Specificity in the post title is a strong signal filter.

Example high-intent posts from r/Entrepreneur

"Best tools for finding warm leads without spamming people — what's working in 2026?"

Why it's a signal: Explicit warm lead generation need. Recency marker ("2026") signals active evaluation.

"I'm tired of cold email, what are entrepreneurs actually using for outreach now?"

Why it's a signal: Competitor (cold email) frustration + active search for alternatives.

"Just launched my SaaS, struggling to find my first 10 customers — tools and tactics?"

Why it's a signal: New buyer, acquisition need, early-stage — high intent to try new tools.
