Subreddit rules check

Can you promote here?
Promotion is allowed only with moderator permission (or inside designated threads). A short, honest modmail before posting costs two minutes and functions as a safe-conduct pass; skipping it is the most common avoidable removal.
From the rules · If you plan to promote a product, ask the mods first — posts must clearly benefit the community with technical detail, code or demos; blatant ads risk removal.
Links
The rules clearly allow links. A plain-text mention still often outperforms a URL from a young account.
What this community rewards
Dominant post formats: showcase, data, discussion
Title: short technical descriptor (e.g., 'I built X: real‑time Y with Z'). Post in first person, concise (~150–400 words) focusing on method, results, and links to code/demo; include screenshots/gifs. Tone: professional and educational. Upvoted: open‑source releases, datasets, reproducible demos, and papers. Removed: pure ads, vague product pitches, help‑buy/sell posts, or posts lacking technical substance.
Arriving in the local format matters: cross-posting the same text everywhere reads as tourist instantly. The wider method is in the Reddit playbook.
Classified mechanically from the community's published rules and recent top posts, last checked July 2026. Rules change and moderators have the final say: verify at r/computervision's rules page before posting anything that matters.
Thread Otter checks this before every send
These profiles power the product: promo-banned communities never receive a promotional draft, drafts arrive in the local format, and a fact-check gate plus human pacing protect the account doing the talking.
