Reddit Community Scraper
Loading recent runs...
The Reddit Scraper pulls posts from a subreddit or a specific thread's comments into structured data. Give it a subreddit name and it returns the latest posts with scores, authors, and metadata. Give it a thread URL and it returns the full comment tree.
It's built for community research, sentiment analysis, and trend spotting. Marketers use it to find how customers talk about competitors in niche subreddits. Product teams use it to mine feature requests from their user community. Researchers use it to snapshot discussions around events or news.
Results come back as clean rows — no Reddit API rate limits to manage, no OAuth to set up. Download as JSON for full data fidelity, or CSV for quick spreadsheet work.
How it works
- Pick subreddit mode (enter a name like "claude") or thread mode (paste a reddit.com/r/.../comments/... URL).
- Start the scrape — up to 200 posts or the full comment tree returns as live progress updates.
- Browse results in the table view with row-expand for long comment text.
- Download as JSON (full fields) or CSV (flat view) for analysis elsewhere.
- Access previous scrapes anytime from your gallery under the Scraping tab.
Use cases
- Track sentiment about a brand or competitor in relevant subreddits.
- Mine feature requests and pain points from your product's community.
- Snapshot discussions around a news event or product launch for later analysis.
- Build a training set of authentic user language for copywriting or AI fine-tuning.
- Monitor trending posts in niche communities for content ideas.
- Archive a high-engagement comment thread before it scrolls off the front page.
Frequently asked questions
Do I need a Reddit account or API key?
No. The scraper uses its own infrastructure — you only need a CreatorHub account with credits.
How many posts or comments do I get?
Subreddit mode returns up to 200 posts per run. Thread mode returns the full comment tree, limited by a per-run compute cap.
Are deleted or removed posts included?
Posts and comments that Reddit has deleted or removed will not appear — the scraper only sees what's publicly visible.
What fields are included per post?
Title, body text, author, score, number of comments, timestamp, post URL, and permalink. Thread mode adds parent-ID and depth so you can reconstruct the reply tree.
Can I scrape private or quarantined subreddits?
No — only public subreddits are supported. Private and quarantined communities return zero results and your credits are refunded.
