Social Listening Agent with Codex

Every sweep ends the same way: a batch of rows into Airtable carrying a link, a subreddit, a date, a one-line summary, sentiment and priority. That is structured data assembly on top of a search API, which Codex is genuinely good at. It also finishes quickly on the many ticks where the honest answer is nothing new.

Live demo

Watch it work before it's live

Run a staged conversation — no account needed. The agent handles it for real while a simulated world answers its tool calls; nothing touches real accounts, and nothing is actually sent.

Hourly sweep, Tuesday 09:00

Hourly scheduleevery hour, on the hour

The 09:00 tick fires and the last sweep ran an hour ago. Since then there are four new hits: a r/webdev thread where u/marek_dvorak recommends us in passing, two neutral pricing questions in r/SaaS, and a post in r/smallbusiness from u/naledi_mokoena asking whether anyone has migrated over from the competitor and how long it took.

What you'll need

Set up in minutes

Using this template drops you into a guided setup. It asks exactly this, nothing else:

  1. Connect Reddit

    One sign-in. The agent acts through your account, scoped to what this template uses.

  2. Connect Slack

    One sign-in. The agent acts through your account, scoped to what this template uses.

  3. Connect Airtable

    One sign-in. The agent acts through your account, scoped to what this template uses.

  4. Brand terms

    Every term worth watching, in your words: your product and company names, the misspellings people actually type, your domain, your founders' names, and the competitors you want compared against. The agent searches exactly these and treats everything else as noise.

  5. Response policy

    What earns an immediate Slack ping versus a quiet Airtable log, for example an unanswered complaint or someone asking which tool to buy pings, a neutral mention of your category does not. Say it the way you would tell a new teammate.

  6. Runs on Codex

    Preselected for this page — connect your Codex account during setup, or switch to NoClick's built-in models with one click.

  7. Watch it handle a test run

    A staged conversation against a simulated world — then it’s live.

A considered pairing

Why Codex for this agent

Clean rows, one write

The instructions call for a single create-records call at the end of the sweep rather than a row at a time. Codex is comfortable holding a structured payload together and sending it once.

Quick on empty hours

Most hours turn up four hits and none of them matter. A fast harness makes the boring ticks cheap, and the boring ticks are where the volume is.

Good to know

Before you fork

Do I need a paid OpenAI account to run this all day?

Yes, Codex uses your own OpenAI credential, and 24 sweeps a day means 24 short runs against it. Cost is driven by how much the agent has to read, so a brand with a busy subreddit presence adds up faster than a quiet one. Watch the first day of usage before leaving it unattended.
