Conversations View

Your main lead inbox — all mentions matching your keywords.

The Conversations tab shows every lead HotMention finds. Each card displays:

  • Platform icon (Reddit, X, LinkedIn, etc.)
  • Conversation title and snippet
  • Intent score (0-100) with color-coded label (HOT/WARM/LOW)
  • Author username
  • Matched keyword
  • Timestamp (when the mention was posted)

Filtering & Sorting

  • Score: Filter by HOT, WARM, or LOW intent
  • Platform: Show only Reddit, X, LinkedIn, etc.
  • Keyword: Filter by specific keyword matches
  • Date range: Last 24h, 7 days, 30 days, or custom
  • Sort: By score (highest first), date (newest first), or platform

💡 Tip: Start each day by filtering for HOT leads (70+) from the last 24 hours. Reply fast while the conversation is active.

🔑

Keywords Management

Add, edit, pause, or delete keywords in real-time.

Navigate to Dashboard → Keywords to manage your active keywords.

Add keywords: Click "Add Keyword" and type new phrases. They go live immediately.

Pause keywords: Temporarily stop monitoring without deleting. Great for testing.

View stats: See how many leads each keyword generated, avg intent score, and conversion rate.

💡 Tip: Remove keywords that consistently generate LOW-intent leads (<40). Focus on what works.

🧠

Discovery (AI Keyword Suggestions)

Let AI suggest new high-converting keywords based on your existing data.

HotMention analyzes your leads and suggests related keywordsyour target customers are using.

How it works:

  • 1. AI scans your converted leads and high-intent mentions
  • 2. Finds patterns in language, phrases, and questions
  • 3. Suggests 5-10 new keywords per week
  • 4. You review and add the ones that fit

💡 Tip: Run discovery monthly. Customer language evolves — your keywords should too.

📈

Analytics

Track performance, conversion rates, and ROI over time.

The Analytics tab shows:

  • Total leads this month vs last month
  • Breakdown by platform (which channels deliver best leads)
  • Avg intent score over time
  • Conversion rate (Converted ÷ Total leads)
  • Top-performing keywords
  • Response time (how fast you engage after a lead appears)

Key metric to watch: HOT lead conversion rate. If leads scored 70+ convert at <10%, your reply messaging may need work. If they convert at 20%+, you're nailing it.
