Automated Patreon Comment Reply Queue

Every morning, WebRun opens Patreon, reads the comments left on your recent posts, picks out the ones with no reply yet, drafts an answer for each, files the queue in Microsoft Teams, and pings you on Telegram so paying patrons hear back the same day.

In short

How do I keep up with unanswered comments from my Patreon patrons?

WebRun reads the comments on your recent Patreon posts every morning and picks out the ones you have not answered. It drafts a reply per comment in your voice, files the queue in Microsoft Teams with each patron's tier and waiting time, and pings you on Telegram so paying patrons hear back the same day.

  • Paying patrons hear back the same day they comment
  • Questions and complaints rise above praise in the queue
  • Every comment arrives with a draft, so replying takes a minute

Questions, answered

Will it reply to patrons without me?

No. Every reply is drafted into your internal Teams queue and left unposted. Nothing appears under your Patreon post or in a patron's messages until you post it yourself.

Does it prioritise higher tiers?

It sorts questions and complaints above praise and shows each patron's tier on the line, so you can answer your top tier first. Tell WebRun a different order and it will follow it.

How far back does it look?

Two weeks of posts by default, which catches comments that arrive days after publication. Ask for a longer window and WebRun will sweep further back.

Put this on autopilot.

Turn it on in minutes - or have our team set it up for you.
