Can I post my AI product here?
Only if it is genuinely helpful, you are active in the subreddit, and you label the post clearly as self-promotion. The rules say repeat offenders get banned, so one careless link can end your account's standing here.

Rules can change, so Rankhog keeps verification dates and the original public Reddit sources visible.
Rule summary
- Stay On Topic: All posts must relate to AI content, such as: • News & updates from companies like OpenAI, Google, Meta, etc. • Prompt sharing (image, video, audio, or chatbot). • AI tools, experiments, walkthroughs, or tips. • Discussions around GenAI usage, ethics, or future.
- Use Proper Flairs: Always assign the correct flair to your post. Posts with the wrong flair may be removed to keep the community organized.
- No Spam or Self-Promotion Without Approval: Do not post links to your product, service, or YouTube/Medium unless: • It's genuinely helpful. • You’re active in the subreddit. • You label it clearly as self-promotion. Repeat offenders will be banned.
- Be Respectful and Civil: • No hate speech, harassment, or toxic behavior. • Respect different opinions on AI use, risks, and future.
- No Reposts or Crossposts Without Additions: Reposts or crossposts from other subs must have added commentary, a fresh take, or discussion value.
Works well
- A walkthrough of how you built something with AI, with steps and screenshots, flaired correctly
- A fresh take on AI news you write in your own words, with your commentary added on top
- A prompt you actually use, shared with the output it produced and what you learned tweaking it
- A tip post about a workflow that saves time, written to help rather than to sell
- A discussion post asking the community how they feel about a GenAI ethics question, with your own opinion stated first
- A tool comparison or experiment where you show your testing process and honest results
Avoid
- Dropping a bare link to your product, service, YouTube, or Medium with no helpful context
- Posting self-promotion while your account has no visible activity in this subreddit
- Forgetting to label a self-promotional post clearly as self-promotion
- Submitting a post with the wrong flair or no flair at all
- Crossposting or reposting content without adding your own commentary or fresh take
- Posting anything that has nothing to do with AI, like generic marketing advice with no AI angle
What r/aicuriosity Is For
This is a community for people who are curious about AI in general. The description says it is a hub for AI enthusiasts who want the latest AI news, new tools, creative prompts, and new innovations. The first rule spells out what counts as on topic: news and updates from AI companies, prompt sharing for image, video, audio, or chatbots, AI tools, experiments, walkthroughs, or tips, and discussions about GenAI usage, ethics, or the future. So the room is a mix of people sharing what they found, people showing what they built, and people talking about where AI is heading. If you are a founder with an AI product, this is your audience, but the rules make clear you have to earn your spot before you share your own links.
Rules That Matter Before Posting
Four rules decide whether a marketing-adjacent post survives here. The first is “Stay On Topic”, which means everything you post must relate to AI content like tools, experiments, walkthroughs, tips, or GenAI discussions. The second is “Use Proper Flairs”, and this one is easy to fail because the community requires the correct flair on every post and may remove posts with the wrong one. The third is “No Spam or Self-Promotion Without Approval”, which is the big one for founders. You can only post links to your product, service, YouTube, or Medium if the post is genuinely helpful, you are active in the subreddit, and you label it clearly as self-promotion. The fourth is “No Reposts or Crossposts Without Additions”, so if you share something already circulating, you need to add commentary, a fresh take, or discussion value. There is also “Be Respectful and Civil”, which matters less for marketing but still decides whether you stay welcome.
What To Post
A good post here is AI content first and you second. Share a tool, experiment, walkthrough, or prompt because it genuinely helps people, and let that be the whole post. If you built something, show how it works and what you learned, not just a link. If you share news or someone else's post, add your own take so it is not a plain repost. Pick the correct flair before you submit, and if the post touches your own product, label it clearly as self-promotion and make sure you have been an active member of the community first.
What To Avoid
Do not drop links to your product, service, YouTube, or Medium unless the post is genuinely helpful, you are active in the subreddit, and you label it clearly as self-promotion. The rules say repeat offenders get banned, so treat this as a one strike topic. Do not post anything off topic, because every post must relate to AI. Do not forget your flair, since wrong or missing flairs can get the post removed. Do not repost or crosspost without adding commentary, a fresh take, or discussion value. And keep it civil, with no hate speech, harassment, or toxic behavior.

Common questions about r/aicuriosity
Do I need a flair on my post?
Yes. The rules say always assign the correct flair, and posts with the wrong flair may be removed to keep the community organized.
Can I share news from another subreddit?
Only with additions. Reposts and crossposts must have added commentary, a fresh take, or discussion value, so a bare link will not survive.
What kind of content is allowed?
AI content only. That means news and updates from AI companies, prompt sharing, AI tools, experiments, walkthroughs, tips, and discussions about GenAI usage, ethics, or the future.
Can I link my YouTube video or Medium article?
Only under the same conditions as any self-promotion. It must be genuinely helpful, you must be active in the subreddit, and you must label it clearly as self-promotion.
