For web designers & developers

The clients who need a site are already posting. You're just not there when they do.

Every day someone on Reddit, a Facebook group, or LinkedIn writes "can anyone build me a website?" ClientRadar watches for those posts, scores how ready they are to hire on a 0-100 scale, and drafts a reply in your voice so you can be the first credible answer, not the tenth.

  • Catches buying-intent posts across Reddit, Facebook, X and LinkedIn so you stop scrolling groups manually
  • Scores each lead 0-100 with the reason, so you skip the "just curious" and reply to the ones with a budget
  • Never auto-posts: every reply waits for your tap, so your accounts don't get flagged like bot tools do
  • Leads and your CRM stay on your own device, not on someone else's server
In short

ClientRadar is a Chrome extension that helps web designers and developers find clients by monitoring Reddit, Facebook groups, X, and LinkedIn for buying-intent posts like "looking for a web developer" or "need someone to build a website." It scores each lead from 0 to 100 using AI, drafts a reply in your own writing style ("Brand DNA"), and keeps your leads and CRM stored locally on your device. Unlike auto-posting bots such as Devi, ReplyGuy, or PhantomBuster, ClientRadar never posts anything without your explicit tap, which keeps your accounts safe as Reddit and Meta crack down on automation.

Why finding web clients feels like a second job

Most designers and developers are great at building and bad at being found at the exact moment a client decides to hire. The work is out there, posted in plain language every single day. The problem is the gap between when someone asks and when you see it.

Feast or famine, on repeat

When you're heads-down delivering a build, marketing stops. The project wraps, the pipeline is empty, and you're back to panic-applying on Upwork. Single-channel dependency is the number one cause of this cycle, and most devs have exactly one channel: referrals that dried up.

The lead is gone before you refresh the tab

Speed wins. The vendor who responds first often takes the deal — responding within minutes, not hours, dramatically improves your odds of being the one they pick. By the time you scroll past a "need a website" post in a 50,000-member group, ten other freelancers have already commented and the OP has stopped reading.

Manual monitoring eats the hours you should be billing

Babysitting r/forhire, a dozen Facebook groups, and LinkedIn searches is hours a week of unpaid scrolling, most of it past tyre-kickers and students with no budget. That's time you can't bill, spent looking for time you can.

Auto-posting tools are a fast way to get banned

The obvious "fix" is a bot that comments for you. But Reddit cracked down hard on automated posting in 2025 and rolled out human verification, and tools like GummySearch shut down. Spray-and-pray automation now gets your account suspended, not your calendar booked.

From a stranger's post to your reply, in four steps

You stay in control the whole way. ClientRadar finds and drafts; you decide and send.

Tell it what a good client looks like

Pick your platforms and keywords, in your words: "need a website," "WordPress developer," "can someone build a landing page," "recommendations for a web designer." ClientRadar watches the groups and subreddits where those posts actually land.

It scores who's ready to hire, 0-100

Only the post text plus your Brand DNA go to AI (DeepSeek, with Anthropic as fallback) to score intent and explain why. A small-business owner asking for quotes scores high; a student asking how to learn HTML scores low. You see a short queue of real buyers, not a firehose of mentions.

It drafts your reply in your voice

ClientRadar writes a first reply that sounds like you, references the specific ask, and leads with help instead of a pitch. Edit it, tighten it, or rewrite it. The point is you're answering in two minutes, not deciding whether to bother.

You tap send, your leads stay yours

Nothing is posted until you tap. The lead, your notes, and your follow-up CRM live locally on your device, so you own your pipeline outright and there's no bot footprint on your account.

Why this fits web designers and developers specifically

You don't need hundreds of leads. You need a handful of the right ones, fast, without torching the accounts you built your reputation on. ClientRadar is shaped for exactly that.

Your craft is the close, so being early is the whole game

Web work is won on trust and speed, not volume. When you're one of the first thoughtful replies to a "who can build this" post, you set the frame before the price race starts. ClientRadar's job is to put you there before the thread fills up.

Safe by design, because your accounts are your storefront

A flagged Reddit or LinkedIn account is lost reputation you can't easily rebuild. ClientRadar never auto-posts and keeps a human on every send, so you stay inside the 90/10 norms and platform rules while the auto-posters get suspended around you.

Private by default, which matters when you handle client work

Leads and CRM never leave your device; only the public post text and your Brand DNA touch the AI to score and draft. For developers who care where data lives, the architecture is the pitch, not a checkbox.

What it looks like in your week

The "need a new website" Facebook post

A local business owner posts in a regional group asking for a web designer recommendation. ClientRadar surfaces it within minutes, scores it 88 (clear budget, clear deadline), and drafts a reply that answers their actual question. You edit one line and send before the comment thread turns into a pile-on.

The Reddit thread that becomes a retainer

Someone in a niche subreddit asks how to fix their slow Shopify store. Low ad-spend intent, high need. You reply with one genuinely useful tip, no pitch, and the DM that follows turns into ongoing work, the way Reddit actually rewards.

The LinkedIn post you'd never have seen

A founder writes "our site is embarrassing, who do I talk to?" On the Max plan, ClientRadar catches it on LinkedIn and X too — you're in the comments with a calm, specific answer while the post is still warm.

Filling the gap between projects

Instead of waiting for the famine, you spend ten minutes a day reviewing a scored queue. The channel keeps running while you build, so the pipeline doesn't reset to zero every time you ship.

Questions, answered

Will using ClientRadar get my Reddit or LinkedIn account banned?

It's designed specifically to avoid that. ClientRadar never auto-posts or mass-comments, which is what triggers Reddit and Meta's automated bans, it just surfaces posts and drafts a reply you send yourself. Because a human approves every action, you stay within normal posting behaviour and the 90/10 self-promotion convention. The bans hitting freelancers in 2025-2026 come from automation tools that post for you; ClientRadar deliberately isn't one.

How is this different from Devi, ReplyGuy, or PhantomBuster?

Those tools lean toward automated commenting and broad reach, and several have run into account-suspension problems as platforms cracked down. ClientRadar is narrower on purpose: it scores intent so you reply to fewer, better leads, it keeps a human on every send, and it stores your leads locally instead of in the cloud. If you want maximum automated volume, a tool like Devi may suit you; if you want safe, precise, owned pipeline, that's the trade ClientRadar makes.

Can't I just monitor Facebook groups and r/forhire myself for free?

Yes — and for some people that's genuinely enough; manual monitoring costs nothing but time. ClientRadar earns its price by removing the scrolling, scoring out the tyre-kickers, and drafting the reply so you respond in minutes instead of hours. If you have one or two groups and plenty of free time, do it manually. If you're losing leads to slow response and unpaid scrolling, that's the gap this fills.

What data actually leaves my device?

Only the text of a public post plus your Brand DNA (your writing-style sample) are sent to the AI to score the lead and draft a reply. Your leads, notes, contacts, and CRM stay stored locally in your browser, not on ClientRadar's servers. Nothing is posted anywhere until you tap send.

Which platforms and plans cover web design leads?

Pro (€59/mo, or €29 annual) covers Facebook and Reddit, which is where most "need a website" posts surface. Max (€99/mo, or €59 annual) adds LinkedIn and X for founders and B2B buyers. There's a free tier that teases blurred leads, a 7-day trial, 50% off your first payment, and you can cancel anytime. One signed web project usually covers the year.

Does it write spammy copy-paste comments?

No, that's the opposite of the design. Each draft is generated from the specific post and your Brand DNA, so it references what the person actually asked and sounds like you, lead-with-help, not lead-with-pitch. And since you edit and send manually, you control the final words every time, which is exactly what keeps replies from reading as templated spam.

Be the first credible reply to your next web client
