The Reddit scraper for post and discussion data
Kavex's Reddit scraper turns any search query into a clean list of Reddit posts. Reddit is where people ask for honest recommendations, complain about products and debate tools in their own words — which makes it one of the best places to find demand signals and customer language. You give a search term, optionally scoped to a single subreddit, and Kavex returns every matching post with its title, author, subreddit, score, comment count and date. It is built for market researchers, content teams hunting topics, and growth teams looking for threads where their product is a natural answer.
Sign up to useWhat it does
Provide one or more search terms (for example best crm or remote work tools), one per line. Optionally restrict the search to a single subreddit and choose a sort order — relevance, top, new or comments. For each term Kavex returns matching posts with title, author, subreddit, score, comment count, date and the post URL.
Use cases
- Market research — find what people ask and complain about in a niche
- Content ideation — surface high-engagement topics worth writing about
- Lead and demand signals — find threads asking for a product like yours
- Tracking brand or competitor mentions across subreddits
Sample output
Each row is one post: title, author, subreddit, score, comment_count, created_at, post_url, selftext. Feed the post URLs straight into the Reddit Comments scraper to read the full discussion.
How it works
Enter your search terms on the configure page, optionally set a subreddit and sort order, choose how many results per term you want, and run. Kavex searches Reddit for each term. Pair it with the Reddit Comments scraper to go from a post list straight into the conversations.
Frequently asked questions
Can I limit a search to one subreddit?
Yes — set a subreddit on the configure page and the search runs only within that community. Leave it blank to search across all of Reddit.
What sort orders are available?
You can sort by relevance, top, new or comment count, so you can find either the most popular or the most recent posts for a term.
How fresh is the data?
Every scrape is live — you get the Reddit search results exactly as they appear at run time, not a cached database.
Can I read the comments on the posts I find?
Yes — the post_url column feeds directly into the Reddit Comments scraper to pull the full comment thread for any post.
