Reddit Comments Scraper

Reddit Comments Scraper by Omkar Cloud gets you 🎯 accurate, 🔍 detailed Reddit comments.

Reddit Comments Scraper beats it — no account, no login, no API key — and reads Reddit live on every run, so you get every comment of any thread, user or keyword, and can successfully complete your project.

$0.50 per 1,000 comments. And with Apify's free plan you get $5 of credit every month, so your first ~10,000 comments each month are free.

This is an excellent Actor made by Omkar Cloud, which is Rated Excellent — 4.7 based on 30 reviews on Trustpilot.

What can I get

• 🧵 Every comment of any thread — every folded "load more" branch expanded, in thread order, up to 2,000 per post
• 🌳 Full reply context — depth, parent_comment_id and reply_count on every comment
• 👤 Any user's comments — each one with the post it was made on
• 🔍 Comments matching a keyword — search across all of Reddit
• 📊 Scores, authors & timestamps — plus flair, edited time and submitter flag

Why Reddit Comments Scraper

Most other Reddit comment scrapers fail you in one of four ways:

• 🧩 Low-detail data — the top-level comments only, never the folded replies
• 🗄️ Inaccurate, cached, stale data — yesterday's scores are useless
• 💸 Pay more to get the same data — $0.58–$1.50 per 1,000 comments elsewhere, often plus a start fee
• 🪦 Works today, breaks next month — nobody maintains it

Reddit Comments Scraper reads Reddit live, is priced honestly, and actively maintained.

Example: Barack Obama Answering on His AMA

{
  "source": "https://www.reddit.com/r/IAmA/comments/z1c9z/…",
  "source_type": "post",
  "id": "c60n05h",
  "link": "https://www.reddit.com/r/IAmA/comments/z1c9z/i_am_barack_obama_president_of_the_united_states/c60n05h/",
  "depth": 1,
  "parent_comment_id": "c60mm41",
  "text": "Making sure we stay at the forefront of space exploration is a big priority for my administration. The passing of Neil Armstrong this week is a…",
  "created_at": "2012-08-29T20:24:23Z",
  "author": { "username": "PresidentObama" },
  "stats": { "score": 2525 },
  "flags": { "is_submitter": true },
  "reply_count": 5,
  "post": {
    "id": "z1c9z",
    "title": "I am Barack Obama, President of the United States -- AMA",
    "subreddit": "IAmA",
    "comment_count": 22719
  }
}

Trimmed for readability. Every row also carries edited_at, subreddit, the rest of flags and media (images or GIFs in the comment).
