Posting your startup in r/Entrepreneurs

Yes. r/Entrepreneurs is one of the subreddits that lets founders share their own product, as long as you follow its self-promotion rules and give the community more than you take. The rules and the post formats that get approved are below.

Personal war stories and counterintuitive lessons. Posts that work here are honest reflections on mistakes, tough decisions, or surprising findings from real business experience—told with specific detail and vulnerability, not hype.

Self-promotion rules

No explicit self-promotion rules were fetched, but the subreddit culture strongly discourages direct product promotion. Posts that succeed focus on genuine lessons, failures, and insights from running businesses—not pitches. Any mention of your own product must be deeply secondary to a larger narrative or insight you're sharing. (Note: this sub is strict about self-promotion, lead with pure value.)
