Official Reddit API publishing
Posts ship through Reddit's official API with OAuth scopes you grant on connect. No browser automation, no fake voting, no behavior that triggers shadowbans or anti-spam classifiers.
Schedule Reddit posts
Schedule Reddit posts - without breaking subreddit rules
Croni publishes via Reddit's official API, supports per-subreddit flair and formatting, and is built around the realities of Reddit moderation - karma requirements, account age, the 9:1 self-promotion rule. Honest tooling, not bot-net behavior.

Per-subreddit flair + format
Croni respects each subreddit's required flair, title rules and format conventions. Set them once per subreddit; Croni applies them to every scheduled post for that sub.
Honest about Reddit's rules
Reddit isn't LinkedIn - automation alone won't grow your audience. Croni schedules and formats; you still need karma, account age, and authentic engagement to land in feeds.
For builders sharing milestones in /r/SaaS, /r/indiehackers, /r/Entrepreneur - and any community-engaged founder
Reddit is the highest-quality social audience on the internet and the hardest to do right. Subreddits ban self-promotion within hours of detection. Moderators read post histories. The 9:1 rule (90% engagement, 10% self-promo) is enforced by default in serious subs.
Most 'Reddit automation tools' ignore all of this and ship posts that get removed within minutes - sometimes shadow-banning the account in the process. Croni was built the opposite way: schedule and format the posts you would have written anyway, on the cadence your account can actually sustain.
The achievement-style milestone posts that work on Reddit ('first $1k MRR', 'shipped 100 customers', 'open-sourced our codebase') need authentic context and consistent presence. Croni helps you ship them on a sustainable schedule and respect the rules of each sub - but it can't replace the engagement work that earns the right to post.
How it works
- 01
Connect Reddit
OAuth connect your Reddit account. Croni reads your post history to learn your voice and your subreddit list.
- 02
Set per-subreddit rules
For each target subreddit, configure required flair, title format, link rules and any sub-specific norms. Croni applies them to every scheduled post.
- 03
Schedule with sane cadence
Croni warns you before you violate a sub's posting frequency limits or trip the 9:1 self-promo line. Set the cadence; we publish via the official API.
Frequently asked questions
Will I get shadow-banned for using Croni on Reddit?
Not from Croni itself - we only use Reddit's official API with the OAuth scopes you grant. Shadow-bans come from violating subreddit rules or Reddit's site-wide spam policies, which Croni's safeguards are designed to help you avoid (but can't fully prevent - that's on the account's behavior over time).
Do I need minimum karma or account age?
Many serious subs require 50-1000+ karma and 30-90 day account age before allowing posts at all. Croni shows you each subreddit's requirements before you schedule; if your account doesn't qualify, you'll see it before publishing.
What's the 9:1 rule and does Croni enforce it?
The 9:1 self-promotion rule (from Reddit's official guidance) says no more than 10% of your posts should promote your own content. Croni surfaces your self-promo ratio in your dashboard and warns when you're trending over - but it's your call whether to publish.
Can I post the same content to multiple subreddits?
Yes - but most subs ban cross-posting verbatim. Croni rewrites each post per subreddit (different title, framing, body) rather than copy-pasting. Some subs allow native cross-posts; those Croni supports too.
Does it handle flair, post type (text vs link) and tags?
Yes. For each subreddit you set: required flair, allowed post types, title prefix conventions, NSFW/spoiler tags. Croni applies them automatically per scheduled post.
What about milestone / achievement posts (e.g. /r/SaaS revenue updates)?
These work well on Reddit when you have authentic engagement history in the sub. Croni helps you maintain a consistent posting cadence so your account looks like a real community member, not a drive-by promo account.
Is Reddit on the free plan?
Yes - connect Reddit on the free plan with no card. Paid plans unlock more scheduled posts and additional platforms.
