Quiccreach and Reddit

Quiccreach helps independent creators post their own work. On Reddit, it gets a creator’s post ready for the one subreddit they choose, and applies limits that keep their posting within Reddit’s rules on spam. Each subreddit’s own rules remain the creator’s to follow.

How it works today

1. A creator adds Reddit to Quiccreach. There’s nothing to sign in to: Quiccreach never sees their Reddit login.
2. They write the post, its title and their own words, and choose the one subreddit it goes to.
3. At the time they picked, Quiccreach shows the post ready to go, with a button that opens Reddit’s own submit page for that subreddit, title filled in. On a phone, it can pass the video to the Reddit app instead. They check the post and submit it on Reddit themselves.
4. If they paste the link to their post back into Quiccreach, it shows them where it went.

Quiccreach’s servers send nothing to Reddit. Quiccreach doesn’t use Reddit’s API, holds no Reddit logins or tokens, and reads nothing from Reddit.

The rules built into Quiccreach

These rules are built into the product. Quiccreach refuses a post that breaks one, and says why.

• One post goes to one subreddit.
• The same post can’t go to a second subreddit. Quiccreach refuses the same video or the same text for another subreddit, because Reddit treats that as spam.
• One post a day to each subreddit. No two posts from a creator’s Quiccreach account to the same subreddit within 24 hours of each other.
• Three Reddit posts a day. Never more than three from a creator’s Quiccreach account within any 24 hours, across all subreddits.
• Moderators decide. A subreddit whose moderators asked to be left out can’t be chosen, and a post already scheduled to it isn’t handed off.
• Nothing of Quiccreach’s in the post. Quiccreach adds no link, tag or mention of itself. The words are the creator’s: if they leave the title empty, Quiccreach uses the start of their own text.
• Nothing automated on Reddit. Quiccreach doesn’t post, vote, comment, send messages, follow anyone or join subreddits for anyone.

Each subreddit’s own rules still apply, and are the creator’s to follow. Many subreddits limit self-promotion or require a flair or format, so creators should read a subreddit’s rules on Reddit before posting there. These limits make spam less likely; they don’t guarantee that Reddit or a subreddit will accept a post.

For moderators

If you moderate a subreddit and don’t want posts arriving through Quiccreach, ask us to leave it out. Once it’s left out, it can’t be chosen in Quiccreach, and posts already scheduled to it aren’t handed off.

Message u/quiccreach from your subreddit’s modmail, or email admin@quiccreach.com with the subreddit’s name. We may confirm a request through modmail before acting on it, and we’ll reply when it’s done. To let posts through again, ask the same way.

If a post broke your subreddit’s rules, report it on Reddit as you would any post, and tell us too, so we can look at what led to it.

Reddit’s API

Quiccreach would post to Reddit through Reddit’s API only with Reddit’s written approval, and only on the terms Reddit sets. Until then, creators post on Reddit themselves, as described above. Before that changes, we’ll update this page, our terms and our privacy policy to say what changes.

Reddit’s policies

Creators who post to Reddit do so under Reddit’s User Agreement, the Reddit Rules and each subreddit’s rules. The Data API Terms, the Developer Terms and the Responsible Builder Policy govern apps that use Reddit’s API or data, and would govern any such use by Quiccreach.

• Reddit User Agreement: The terms for using Reddit, including what Reddit may do with what you post there.
• Reddit Rules: Reddit's sitewide rules for content and behaviour.
• Reddit Privacy Policy: How Reddit handles your data, and the apps you allow into your account.
• Responsible Builder Policy: Reddit's rules for apps: approval, spam, automation and use of Reddit data.
• Data API Terms: The terms for any use of Reddit's API.
• Developer Terms: The terms for Reddit's developer services, including its APIs.
• Reddit Data API Wiki: How apps identify themselves to Reddit, and Reddit's rate limits.
• Reddit Brand Guidelines: How others may use Reddit's name and logo.

This page describes how Quiccreach works. It doesn’t change or replace any of Reddit’s policies.
