AI Astroturf Auto-Moderator for Community Managers

A B2B SaaS tool for community managers (Reddit, Discord, Forums) that automatically detects and queues AI-generated spam and astroturfing. It specifically looks for known AI formatting quirks (spaced paragraphs) and marketing frameworks ('I used to X, but then I realized Y') rather than relying solely on generic AI detectors.
