How it works

From install to first discovery in minutes

No complex setup, no coding required. PROWLIFY works out of the box.

01

Install the Chrome extension

  • Head to the Chrome Web Store and add PROWLIFY in one click.
  • The extension icon appears in your toolbar. No account required to start.
  • Works on Chrome and Edge.

// manifest.json permissions

"permissions": [

"alarms",

"storage",

"notifications"

],

02

Configure your scan targets

  • Open the web dashboard after installing the extension.
  • Add subreddits (up to 25) and keywords (up to 50) to scan.
  • Write a short brand context — the AI uses it to find relevant conversations and write natural replies.

Subreddits

SaaS, startups, Entrepreneur

looking for, need a tool, recommendation

10 minutes

03

AI scans and surfaces in the background

  • Chrome alarms trigger scans every N minutes — even when the popup is closed.
  • Each post goes through two analysis passes: heuristic (free) then LLM (Llama 4).
  • Relevant posts get an AI-drafted reply from Groq Llama 4 Scout.

Review and engage from the dashboard

  • Open the dashboard to see all relevant posts with AI reply previews.
  • Edit the reply, then click Post — the extension opens Reddit and auto-fills the reply box.
  • Dismiss, copy to clipboard, or open the post directly.
