Rule summary

Stay on topic: This sub is about SaaS tools, rankings, comparisons, reviews, and SaaS business/marketing. If your post isn't touching one of those things in some way, it's probably not for here. We're not trying to be another general startup or tech sub, there are plenty of those already. Off-topic posts will get removed, not because we're being strict for the sake of it, but because letting the sub drift makes it worse for everyone who came here specifically for SaaS content.
No vendor spam: It's fine to mention your own product occasionally as long as it's disclosed and adds real value, but accounts that only ever show up to promote get banned.
No AI content: We want real thought behind what gets posted here, not something that took ten seconds to generate and zero seconds to edit. If you're pasting in AI output without adding anything of your own, or dropping a vague one-line question that a quick search would answer, it will get removed immediately. We're not against people using AI tools to help draft or brainstorm. The issue is posting the raw, unedited result and expecting a real discussion out of it.
Respect others and be civil: Disagreement is fine, just don't make it personal. Go after the idea, not the person. The first offense usually gets a warning or a temp mute. Harassment or hate speech goes straight to a permanent ban.
No selling or fundraising: We want this to be a place for discussion, not a marketplace. Don't cold DM members, don't dress up lead-gen as a "feedback" or "testing" post, and skip the fundraising pitches. Do any of these and you're getting banned fast, no warning on this one.
No disguised links: Full, direct URLs only. No shorteners, no redirect tricks. This is mostly about trust and safety, since disguised links are a common spam/scam vector. These get auto-removed, and repeatedly posting them will get you banned for rule evasion.

Works well

An honest review of a SaaS tool you use daily, covering what it does well and where it falls short
A shortlist post comparing the tools you evaluated for a specific job, with your reasons for picking the winner
A breakdown of how your own product actually performs, with your product clearly disclosed and real numbers or observations included
A specific question about choosing between tools for a real decision you are facing right now
A SaaS marketing or business lesson tied to how a tool performed in your workflow

Avoid

Pasting AI-generated review text or comparison tables without editing them or adding your own thinking, because “No AI content” gets raw output removed immediately
Dropping a vague one-line question like what tool should I use, which the rules treat as low-effort AI-style posting
Posting about your product without saying it is yours, which breaks “No vendor spam” and gets accounts that only promote banned
Making your product the only thing you ever post about here
Using a link shortener or redirect trick, which gets the post auto-removed and can get you banned for rule evasion under “No disguised links”
Dressing up lead-gen as a feedback or testing post, which “No selling or fundraising” treats as an instant ban with no warning, same as cold DMs or fundraising pitches

What r/SaaS_Rankings Is For

This is a community for SaaS tools and nothing else. The description says it plainly: rankings, comparisons, and honest reviews of SaaS tools, plus shortlists, recommendation requests, and breakdowns of how a product actually performs. The people here come for SaaS content specifically, and the first rule makes that explicit. The mods say they are not trying to be another general startup or tech sub, because plenty of those exist already. So you will find founders posting tool comparisons, buyers asking for recommendations, and people writing honest reviews of software they have used.

Rules That Matter Before Posting

The first gate is “Stay on topic”, which limits posts to SaaS tools, rankings, comparisons, reviews, and SaaS business or marketing, so a generic startup post will get removed. Then there is “No vendor spam”, which allows you to mention your own product if you disclose it and it adds real value, but bans accounts that only ever show up to promote. “No AI content” is a hard stop on raw generated text, and it even targets vague one-line questions that a quick search would answer. “No selling or fundraising” bans cold DMs, lead-gen dressed up as feedback or testing posts, and fundraising pitches, and it comes with a fast ban and no warning. Finally, “No disguised links” requires full, direct URLs only, and repeat offenders get banned for rule evasion.

What To Post

A good post here is a real contribution to a SaaS tool conversation. Share a shortlist you built while choosing a tool, and explain why each option made or missed the cut. Write an honest review of a product you actually use, including what it does badly. Break down how a product performs in practice, with your own observations. If you built a SaaS product yourself, you can post about it, as long as you say it is yours, give real substance like how it performs or what you learned, and you are a regular member of the community rather than a drive-by promoter. Links are allowed but only as full, direct URLs. If you use AI to help draft, edit it heavily and add your own thinking before posting.

What To Avoid

The fastest way out is breaking “No selling or fundraising”, because that one gets you banned with no warning. That means no cold DMs, no fake feedback or testing posts that are really lead-gen, and no fundraising pitches. “No vendor spam” will ban you if your account only ever appears to promote, so do not treat this place as a distribution channel. “No AI content” removes raw AI output on sight, including vague one-line questions. “Stay on topic” removes anything that does not touch SaaS tools, rankings, comparisons, reviews, or SaaS business and marketing. And “No disguised links” auto-removes shortened URLs, so always paste the full direct link. On top of all that, keep things civil under “Respect others and be civil”, because going after a person instead of an idea gets warned or muted first.
