Reddit Scraper: Keyword Alerts for New Posts & Comments

Reddit Scraper - Get every new Reddit post that mentions your brand or keyword - and new posts and comments in the subreddits you care about.

What does Reddit Scraper do?

It reads Reddit's public RSS feeds, which stay open when the JSON endpoints most Reddit scrapers use get blocked, and remembers what it showed you, so each run returns only the new mentions - the top Reddit scraper fails 13% of its runs and has no 'new since last run'.

• New posts mentioning your keywords across all of Reddit
• New posts and optional new comments from chosen subreddits
• Only-new mode for daily alerts, with a baseline on the first run
• Title, text, author, subreddit, time and link in one row
• No login, cookies or Reddit API key

Why this Reddit Scraper?

Reddit blocks its JSON endpoints for most automated traffic, so runs fail. This Reddit Scraper checks every run and tells you plainly when a page could not be read, instead of returning empty or wrong rows.

FAQ

Does Reddit Scraper need a login, cookies or an API key? No. It reads public pages only.

Can I run Reddit Scraper on a schedule? Yes - with Apify Schedules; each run returns fresh rows.

Can I call it from Python, JavaScript or an AI agent? Yes - through the Apify API, the Apify client libraries or the Apify MCP server.

Is it legal? It collects only data anyone can see without logging in. You are responsible for using it within the source site's terms and data protection law (GDPR, CCPA).

What if the site blocks a request? The run retries from a fresh connection and, if it still cannot read the page, stops with a clear message - never with made-up rows.

Do I need proxies? No setup needed - Reddit Scraper uses Apify Proxy by default where the site needs it.

Troubleshooting

• No results: check the input (a public URL or a search term that returns results in a normal browser), then try the example input once.
• Fewer results than expected: raise the maximum in the input; some sites show only a part of their data without logging in, and Reddit Scraper never logs in.
• The run stopped with a message: the message says what the site answered; run it again later or with fewer items.
