SubReddit Info Scraper - SubReddit Metadata Intelligence API

SubReddit Info Scraper is a subreddit metadata intelligence API that extracts structured community profiles, subscriber and active-user counts, governance flags, and access-type signals from any Reddit community in a single subreddit-name-driven run. SubReddit Info Scraper returns structured records per community, including subreddit name, subscriber count, active-user count, full description, public/private/restricted/quarantined access type, advertiser category, language code, governance rules array, content permissions, NSFW flag, icon URL, banner URL, primary color, creation date, and subreddit URL. Coverage spans all public, restricted, and quarantined Reddit communities across all topics and languages. Built for B2B audience research, community-market sizing, advertising audience targeting, competitive community intelligence, brand-safety screening, moderation-policy benchmarking, and Reddit-ecosystem-analysis pipelines. Per-subreddit pay-per-result pricing at $0.115 with no monthly minimum.
