# Octolens

> Octolens is social listening rebuilt around AI relevance scoring. It continuously scans places where people talk shop, Reddit, Hacker News, LinkedIn, X, and GitHub, for mentions tied to your product or market, then uses AI to sort genuine signals from noise so you are not drowning in every stray keyword hit. The idea is to catch buying intent, churn risk, and conversations worth joining while they are still live. Where it earns its keep is in workflow. Instead of a dashboard you forget to open, relevant mentions land in Slack, so a small marketing or founder-led team can respond in the moment rather than days later. It launched in July 2026 and picked up a Product Hunt Launch of the Day award, finishing third that day. It is aimed at B2B software teams, but the underlying pitch travels: if your customers are talking about you somewhere on the open web, Octolens tries to make sure you actually hear it and can reply before the thread goes cold.
