Overview

Search for Reddit posts by keyword across specified subreddits and download the complete, raw data. Get post titles, scores, author details, and more for market research or brand monitoring.

Reddit is a goldmine of unfiltered consumer opinions, niche community discussions, and emerging trends. This tool taps directly into Reddit's API to extract post data based on your specific search criteria, delivering it in a structured JSON format. Unlike visual scrapers that capture what's on the screen, this tool pulls the raw data that powers the site. This means you get a complete and detailed dataset for every post, but it also means the output is complex and best suited for users who are comfortable handling raw JSON. It's designed for data analysts, marketers, and researchers who need the most granular information possible for sentiment analysis, competitive intelligence, or content strategy. You can search for multiple keywords across several subreddits at once, and sort the results by new, top, relevance, or comment count. Please note that Reddit limits search results to 250 posts per query. This tool also requires the use of a residential proxy to avoid being blocked by Reddit's anti-bot measures.
