Why this exists Reading was never the hard part.
Reddit is one of the few places left where strangers actually talk. The catch: every interesting r/
- The copy-paste friction.
- Every reply you draft in ChatGPT means copying the post body, the top comments, and the subreddit's rules — every single time. A five-minute ritual. Most replies die mid-ritual.
- The generic-output friction.
- Without thread context, ChatGPT writes the same generic shape on every sub. The output reads as exactly what it is: AI. Specifics get softened into platitudes; sub-specific tone gets ignored.
- The compliance friction.
- Reddit is openly hostile to AI-generated replies. Generic ChatGPT output gets downvoted, called out, sometimes banned — and your karma takes the hit. Sub-specific rules add another tripwire that pure AI output ignores.
LocalReply removes all three from a single panel that lives next to the reply box.

How it works, in three moves Open a post. Type one thing. Click insert.
-
01
Open any Reddit post.
The panel appears bottom-right. It already knows the subreddit, the title, the post body, the top comments, and the rules pinned to the sidebar.
-
02
Type what you want to say.
English is fine — short and rough is fine. The panel preserves your specific points (numbers, examples, personal experience) and renders them in the sub's voice. If your first language is 日本語 or 中文, you can input in those instead — bonus, not requirement.
-
03
Click Generate. Then Insert.
You get an English reply that sounds like a regular wrote it, with a back-translation underneath so you can verify it didn't drift. One click drops it in Reddit's reply box.
¶04
The honest comparison But couldn't I just ChatGPT this?
You can. Here's the actual workflow, side by side. The difference is the copy-paste tax.
- 1Open the Reddit post. Context already loaded.
- 2Type what you want to say. Short is fine.
- 3Click Insert.
ChatGPT can do step 6. The other six are the reason this extension exists.
And step 6 alone — pure ChatGPT output without the post, the comments, or the sub culture as context — is exactly what reads as AI to everyone else in the thread, and what trips sub rules. Karma loss, fast.

What's actually in it Five fixes, in the order they hit you.
01
fixes the copy-paste friction
The panel already knows what you're replying to.
Open it and the post body, top comments, and pinned subreddit rules are loaded as context — automatically, every time. No copy-paste ritual. No "let me also paste the comments…". You write what you want to say; the panel handles the rest.
02
fixes the generic-output friction
Generated to not read as AI.
The prompt is tuned to preserve every concrete point you make — numbers, examples, personal experience — instead of softening them into the generic shape that ChatGPT defaults to. Your voice gets adapted; your content doesn't get diluted.
03
fixes the compliance friction
Sub-rule compliant by default.
The panel reads the sub's pinned rules and folds them into the prompt. If your message would break a rule, the model rephrases to comply while keeping your meaning. Quietly, before you embarrass yourself.
04
Bilingual mode, free.
If your first language is 日本語 or 中文: read the post body translated into your language, write your input in your native tongue, and read the generated reply back-translated before you send. Full UI in en / ja / zh, auto-detected from your browser.
05
Three voices, picked deliberately.
Casual, Informative, Humorous. Each is a tone, not a length — your reply stays the size your input deserves. Free includes Casual; Pro unlocks the other two.

Honest answers The questions you're about to ask.
Does Reddit allow this?
Yes. LocalReply is a writing aid, not an automation tool — you press Generate, you press Insert, and you can edit either side before posting. We don't auto-post, don't auto-vote, and don't run on multiple accounts. It's the same category as Grammarly or DeepL Write.
What happens to my replies?
Your input and the generated reply transit through our serverless function to DeepSeek and back. We don't store either. There is no account system, no logging of content, no analytics on what you typed. The license key is the only persistent identifier.
I'm on the Free plan and hit my 5 replies. Now what?
The counter resets weekly. If five doesn't fit your week, Pro removes the limit for $11/mo, cancellable anytime. You keep using the post-translation and back-translation tools either way — those are free for everyone.
Can I cancel?
Yes, from your Paddle receipt email. You keep Pro until the end of the billing period. No questions, no friction.
Will this fool people?
It's not meant to. The point is to remove a layer of awkwardness that has nothing to do with what you actually think — to let a non-native commenter sound like a person rather than a translation. Your ideas are still your ideas. The phrasing stops working against you.
Why not Firefox / Edge / Safari?
MVP is Chrome only because Chrome is where 80%+ of our target users already are. Firefox and Edge are on the list once a Pro subscriber base proves the concept.
