Reddit profile analyzer, free, no signup
Short answer: paste any public username. The tool reads the account's last 100 posts and 100 comments, then scores age, karma, comment balance, subreddit spread and recent activity. Under 45 means warm up before you promote anything.

What to do with this number
The free analyzer scores the account you have. MediaFast turns that score into subreddits worth posting in, rule-aware drafts, and a Ban-Safe Playbook so the next post does not get removed.

What you get
Four blocks, top to bottom: the score, the raw numbers, where the account is active and when.
Illustrative sample, not a real account
Readiness score
One 0 to 100 number with a status pill. Under 45 means warm up first.
Age, karma, spread
Years old, total karma and how many subreddits the account is active in.
Top 8 subreddits
Where your history lives, ranked by posts plus comments.
Timing and balance
Busiest day and hour in UTC, plus comments per post.
Enter any public Reddit username above and the tool fetches live data from Reddit's own API: karma, account age, cake day, top subreddits, post-to-comment ratio, and activity timing. It then rolls all of that into a single Marketing Readiness Score from 0 to 100, plus 3 to 4 plain-language recommendations. Use this before you post anything promotional. An account with low karma, an account under 90 days old, or an account with no history in your target subreddit is far more likely to get auto-removed regardless of how good your post is. Checking first, posting second, saves you the frustration of a silently deleted thread.
The scoring formula
Five factors, fixed weights. Age and karma carry 60 points, so a brand new account can't score high.
Bar length is the maximum points a factor can add. Age and karma carry 60 of the 100.
Age earns its 30 points in a straight line up to 730 days. Karma uses a log10 curve that maxes out near 100,000, so the jump from 10 to 1,000 karma moves the score more than 50,000 to 100,000. Balance gives full marks when 60 to 90% of recent activity is comments and drops when an account mostly posts. Diversity scales up to 15 subreddits. Activity gives 10 points if the account was active in the last 7 days and falls to 0 at 90 days of silence.
A quick primer on how the karma numbers in your report get calculated, useful background before you act on your Marketing Readiness Score.
Account trust tiers
Mods and AutoModerator read age and karma together. Find your tier, then read its verdict.
Brand new
Under 10 days, under 10 karma
Warming up
10 to 30 days, 10 to 100 karma
Established
30 to 90 days, 100 to 500 karma
Trusted
90 to 365 days, about 500 to 5,000 karma
Veteran
1 to 3 years, 5,000 to 25,000 karma
Power user
3+ years, 25,000+ karma
Subreddit moderators and AutoModerator both use combinations of age and karma to decide whether a post gets published, held for review, or removed automatically.
| Tier | Age or karma range | What mods infer | Marketing readiness |
|---|---|---|---|
| Brand new | Under 10 days old, under 10 karma | Likely a throwaway or freshly created promotional account. Heavily scrutinized by both mods and AutoMod. | Not ready. Most subs auto-remove any link or promotional post from this tier. |
| Warming up | 10 to 30 days old, 10 to 100 karma | Past the newest throwaway window but still unproven. AutoMod rules commonly gate this tier from posting. | Comment only. Build karma in your target niche before attempting a post. |
| Established | 30 to 90 days old, 100 to 500 karma | Cleared the most common AutoMod age gate. Karma suggests a few weeks of genuine participation. | Ready for lower-strictness subreddits. Still risky for tightly moderated business communities. |
| Trusted | 90 to 365 days old, roughly 500 to 5,000 karma | Past nearly every common AutoMod threshold. History is long enough to demonstrate real engagement. | Ready for most marketing-friendly subreddits, including SaaS and startup communities. |
| Veteran | 1 to 3 years old, 5,000 to 25,000 karma | Rarely questioned by mods. Long history reduces suspicion even for first posts in a new subreddit. | Highly ready. Focus shifts from account trust to post quality and subreddit fit. |
| Power user | 3+ years old, 25,000+ karma | Long-term community member, often recognized in niche circles. Sometimes moderates other subreddits. | Fully ready. The account itself is essentially never the limiting factor. |

account_age and combined_karma
The two checks this analyzer weighs hardest, 60 of the 100 points.
satisfy_any_threshold
Defaults to false, so both checks must trip. Set to true, either one removes the post.
Subreddit karma, since 2022
Mods can also gate on karma earned inside their own subreddit.
Both floors are documented by the community wiki at r/EncyclopaediaOfReddit and in AutoModerator guides. Checked October 2026.
In December 2022 Reddit added subreddit karma to AutoModerator: comment_subreddit_karma, post_subreddit_karma and combined_subreddit_karma. Mods still can't see what you earned in other subreddits, and Reddit suggested using these checks alongside the usual ones. The practical upshot: karma earned in the subreddit you target counts for more than a big total built elsewhere.
r/wholesomeanimemes asks for a 14 day old account with 10 comment karma before you can comment, and 14 days with 55 post karma before you can submit. AutoModerator enforces both.
These ranges reflect common patterns across publicly visible AutoModerator rules and subreddit wikis. Individual subreddits vary, and rules change over time, so always check a specific community's posting requirements before you submit.
Post now or wait
Find the line that matches your report. Wait means comment first, post means the account is fine.
Readiness score under 45
No promo posts yet. Comment in your niche for a few weeks.
Account under 90 days old
Skip business and SaaS subs, many gate at 90 days.
Readiness score 45 to 74
Post only where your top subreddits show history.
Mostly posts, few comments
Pause posting and comment for a week or two.
Readiness score 75 or higher
Account is fine. Put the effort into the post.
No overlap with your target subreddit
Comment in that subreddit first, sub history beats totals.
Inactive for more than 30 days
Run normal activity before the launch post.
Do not attempt promotional posts yet, even in loosely moderated subreddits. Spend the next few weeks commenting genuinely in your target niche to raise both age and karma naturally.
Skip business and SaaS subreddits entirely for now. A large share of these communities enforce a 90-day minimum through AutoModerator, and the post will be silently removed regardless of quality.
You can post, but stick to subreddits where your top subreddits list already shows activity. Avoid brand-new communities where you have zero history.
Pause new posts and comment for a week or two first. A history that is almost entirely posts with little conversation is one of the fastest ways to get flagged as promotional.
You are in good shape to post in most marketing-friendly subreddits, including tighter communities like r/SaaS or r/startups. Focus your energy on the post itself rather than the account.
Spend a week or two commenting in that specific subreddit first. Sub-specific history matters more to mods than your overall totals, even on an old, high-karma account.
A dormant account looks different to mod tools than an actively used one. A short run of normal activity before your campaign helps the account look organic rather than reactivated for a launch.

Warm-up playbook
Six steps that raise the score the honest way. Run the analyzer each week to track it.
Step 01Pick 5 to 8 related subreddits
Start from your top subreddits, add a few you want to post in.
Step 02Comment before you post
Week one is comments only. No product mentions.
Step 03Consistent, not bulk
A few comments a day beats 20 in one hour.
Step 04Let karma build naturally
Skip karma farms. Off-topic karma barely helps.
Step 05Re-check your score weekly
Watch score, diversity and ratio trend up.
Step 06First post gives, asks nothing
A lesson, a resource or a real question. No product.
Use the analyzer to see your current top subreddits, then add a handful more that overlap with where you eventually want to post. Diversity across related communities counts toward your readiness score and builds a broader base of trust.
Spend the first week purely commenting. Answer questions, add genuine value, and avoid mentioning your product at all. This is what moves your post-to-comment ratio into a healthier range.
A handful of thoughtful comments spread across several days looks far more natural than 20 comments posted in one hour. Reddit's spam systems and human moderators both notice bursty activity patterns.
Do not chase karma farming subreddits purely to inflate the number. Karma earned in unrelated communities does little for your credibility in your real target subreddit, since mods weight sub-specific history heavily.
Run the account back through this analyzer every week. Watch your readiness score, subreddit diversity, and post-to-comment ratio trend upward before you plan your first real post.
Before any product mention, post something that adds value with zero ask attached: a lesson learned, a resource, or an honest question. This establishes the account as a participant, not a marketing vehicle, right before you need that credibility most.
Common mistakes
Each one shows up in a profile report before a moderator ever sees it.
Even a great product post gets auto-removed on sight if the account is a week old with no comment history. Check age and karma first, every time, no exceptions.
A 10,000 karma account built entirely in unrelated meme subreddits carries little weight in a business subreddit. Sub-specific history matters more than the raw total.
An account with 50 posts and 2 comments reads as a marketing account at a glance, regardless of age or karma. This is one of the fastest ways to get shadow-flagged by both mods and automated spam filters.
A dormant account suddenly posting a product link after 6 months of silence is a classic pattern moderators watch for. A short warm-up period of normal activity avoids this red flag entirely.
Purchased or repurposed accounts often carry a hidden history: prior bans, karma from banned subreddits, or a wildly unrelated posting pattern. Run any account through an analyzer before relying on it for marketing.
A 30-day, 100-karma account might be fine in a smaller niche subreddit and immediately removed in a stricter, larger one. Check the specific subreddit's posting rules alongside your account's readiness score.

Need more history than 100 posts and 100 comments? RedditMetis reads up to 1,000 of each and is the better pick for deep research. For a quick go or no-go before a launch, the score here is faster. Once you know where you stand, tools like MediaFast can turn a weak profile analysis into a growth plan: subreddits that fit, drafts that follow each rule set, and a short daily routine.
Careful with browser extensions. At least one Chrome extension named "Reddit User Analyzer" has been pulled from the store and flagged by extension auditors as possibly malicious. A web tool that only asks for a public username needs no browser permissions at all.
After your first report
Short answers below, full reasoning in the fold.
As a gate, yes. Age is a hard cutoff, karma matters more after you clear it.
Yes. The score covers account trust, not the post or the rules.
Often. Their top subreddits show where your market talks.
Generally yes, at least as a gate. Account age is a hard cutoff in most AutoModerator setups, meaning a 29-day-old account with 5,000 karma still gets blocked from a subreddit requiring 30 days. Karma tends to matter more once you clear the age gate, since it signals ongoing participation rather than a one-time signup.
Yes. The score reflects account trust, not post quality or subreddit rule compliance. A veteran account with a perfect score can still get a post removed for breaking a specific subreddit's self-promotion rule, using a banned link shortener, or posting in the wrong flair category. Treat the score as clearing the first hurdle, not a guarantee.
Often, yes. Checking a competitor's or an influential user's top subreddits and activity pattern can reveal which communities are engaged with your market, not just the obvious ones. Since account data is public, this is a legitimate research step, similar to checking a competitor's public social media following.

8 answers on the readiness score, karma gates and analyzing any account before you market on it.
A Reddit profile analyzer pulls public data from Reddit's API and turns it into a readable report. Our tool shows account age, cake day, total and split karma, your top 8 most active subreddits, post-to-comment ratio, average post and comment scores, the hour and day you post most, and a Marketing Readiness Score that summarizes how prepared the account is to post in marketing-sensitive communities.
Yes, completely free with no login or signup required. Enter any public Reddit username and hit Analyze Profile. We fetch live data directly from Reddit's public JSON API, so every report reflects the account's current state, not a cached snapshot from months ago.
The Marketing Readiness Score is a 0 to 100 rating we calculate from five weighted factors: account age, total karma, the balance between posting and commenting, how many different subreddits the account is active in, and how recently it has posted or commented. A higher score means the account is less likely to get auto-removed or flagged when it starts posting in business, SaaS, or product-related subreddits.
Account age contributes up to 30 points, with full credit around two years old. Total karma contributes up to 30 points on a logarithmic scale, so the jump from 10 to 1,000 karma matters more than the jump from 50,000 to 100,000. Posting and commenting balance contributes up to 20 points, rewarding accounts that comment more than they post. Subreddit diversity contributes up to 10 points, and recent activity contributes up to 10 points, decaying if the account has been inactive for more than a week.
You can analyze any public Reddit account, not just your own. Account creation date, karma totals, and recent post and comment history are all public information exposed through Reddit's open API. This makes the tool useful for checking your own account before a campaign, vetting an account you are considering buying or partnering with, or researching how an active community member built their profile.
Moderators and AutoModerator bots often check whether an account has a genuine history inside a subreddit before approving a post, especially in business, SaaS, and startup communities. If your top subreddits are unrelated to where you want to post, that is a signal worth fixing before you launch a campaign. Seeing your top 8 subreddits at a glance tells you exactly where your existing credibility lives and where it is missing.
Yes, through AutoModerator. Since December 2022, AutoModerator can check comment_subreddit_karma, post_subreddit_karma and combined_subreddit_karma, which is the karma you earned inside that one community. Moderators still can't see your karma in other subreddits. That's why history in your target subreddit counts for more than a big total built somewhere else.
General-topic subreddits commonly ask for an account 3 to 30 days old. Business, SaaS and startup subreddits often push that to 90 to 180 days. Combined karma gates usually sit between 10 and 500. One public example: r/wholesomeanimemes asks for 14 days and 10 comment karma to comment, and 14 days and 55 post karma to submit. Every community sets its own numbers, so read the rules first.
