Can I import my GummySearch audiences into Meg?
No. Meg builds a Hunt Pack from your product's problem, customer, and category instead. You can add up to 12 of your own keywords.
Comparison
GummySearch alternative for finding customers on Reddit and X
GummySearch, the “audience research for Reddit” tool, closed on 30 November 2025. If you used it mainly to find people asking for a product like yours, Meg covers that job on Reddit and X and drafts the replies. If you used it for deep research into subreddits, Meg is a different kind of tool, and this page says so.

Meg covers Reddit and X. For Hacker News, forums, news, and review sites, look at a social listening tool.
