community rules

Can you promote your product in r/AI_Agents?

Yes, but only under clear limits. Rule 4, "Limit self promotion," says "Self promotion is fine," but adds that if your posts are all self promotion "you will be banned," and gives "a good ratio" of one out of ten posts/comments. Rule 3 also says to put links in comments, not posts, and to put project links in the weekly project display thread.

The rules that cover promotion

Rule 2: No spam

"Spammers will be permanently banned."

Rule 3: Put your links in the comments, not the posts

"If you have a blog post you want to link, link it in the comments. If you have a project you want to show off, link it in the weekly project display thread."

Rule 4: Limit self promotion

"Self promotion is fine, but if your posts are all self promotion (including promotion of your projects/products), you will be banned. A good ratio is one out of ten posts/comments."

Rule 5: No Low Effort Posts

"If your post provides no context, or it is simply meant to drive people off the site and somewhere else, it will be removed."

Quoted from the subreddit's own rules, snapshot from July 2026. Read all 5 rules on Reddit

What gets removed

  • Spam, spammers will be permanently banned
  • Posts that are all self promotion, including promotion of your projects/products, can lead to a ban
  • Low effort posts with no context
  • Posts simply meant to drive people off the site and somewhere else

Safer ways to show up

  • Share your product link in the weekly project display thread
  • If you mention a blog post, put the link in a comment, not in the post
  • Keep self promotion limited, the rules suggest about one out of ten posts/comments
  • Add context and make the post useful, not just a push to another site
Whatever the written rules say, the pattern that gets promo removed everywhere is the same: batches of similar comments, reused wording, and necro-posting on old threads. A promotional mention only has value if it survives, so pace matters more than volume. We measured this the expensive way: 70% of bought pool comments were removed within two weeks.
