PromoLens

Click a Reddit post to see how promotional it is, whether the author disclosed it, and the evidence. Not affiliated with Reddit.

PromoLens helps you tell transparent promotion from possible undisclosed promotion on Reddit - the founder who says "I built this" versus the "workflow" post where one obscure tool gets the only link. Nothing happens on its own. A small button appears in the header of posts. Click it and PromoLens analyses that post and shows: - a verdict: Looks organic, Transparent promotion, Promotion disclosed late, or Possible undisclosed promotion - how the promotion is presented (a personal story that ends at a product, neutral advice that ends at a link, a workflow built around one tool...) - a promotional-likelihood estimate (0-100), the disclosure status and a confidence level - up to three reasons, quoted from the post, with links to the source when the evidence comes from elsewhere PromoLens also reads the author's recent public posts and comments (the same pages you could open yourself) to see whether the same product keeps coming back, and it can score a post straight from the feed without opening it. Both are one click, one post, never automatic. The contextual review uses your own Jev API key. The key stays in local extension storage, and only the post you choose is sent directly to TypeSafe. The rule engine still computes every score, so results stay explainable. PromoLens itself is free and open source, with no account, email signup, subscription or usage allowance. What it is not: PromoLens never labels people, never reports or hides anything, and never acts on your account. Every result is an estimate based on observable signals and can be wrong. Transparent promotion is treated as fine. Privacy: only the post you clicked is sent directly to Jev using your key. Nothing is sent for posts you do not click. Results are cached on your device for 24 hours and can be cleared with one click. No account, email collection, analytics, payments, data selling or model training.
