# Reddit Brand Monitoring: Track Product Mentions

**Use case:** 

Track what Reddit says about a product, a competitor or a keyword. This task searches recent posts and returns them with upvote scores and comment counts, so you can see which mentions are actually getting traction. Swap the search term for your own brand and run it on a schedule.

## Input

```json
{
  "subreddits": [
    "technology"
  ],
  "searchQuery": "ChatGPT",
  "maxPosts": 30,
  "sort": "new",
  "timeFilter": "day",
  "includeComments": false,
  "maxCommentsPerPost": 100,
  "useRichData": true,
  "requestDelaySecs": 3
}
```

## Output

```json
{
  "subreddit": {
    "label": "Subreddit",
    "format": "text"
  },

    "label": "Title",
    "format": "text"

## How to integrate an Actor?

This Task's input is already configured above. Use it as-is rather than inventing a new one.

Do not guess an integration path. Every one of them is in the agent quickstart at https://apify.com/agents.md: the Apify MCP server, Agent Skills with the Apify CLI, the JavaScript and Python clients, the REST API, and the account-free path for an agent with no human to sign in. It also carries the rule on stating cost before the first paid run.

For full API examples (JavaScript, Python, CLI, MCP, OpenAPI), see this Task's Actor page: https://apify.com/makework36/reddit-scraper.md

Each client library has reference documentation the quickstart does not restate: [JavaScript/TypeScript](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js/docs.md) (`npm install apify-client`) and [Python](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python/docs.md) (`pip install apify-client`).
