👤 Reddit Profiles Scraper

🕒 Last updated: 2026-05-05

Collect public Reddit user profiles by keyword search or direct profile URL. Perfect for recruiters finding engineering talent, community managers identifying influential users, market researchers tracking user demographics, or anyone needing a Reddit user profile scraper to download bulk account data without coding. Supports karma filtering, moderator targeting, and Gold member identification.

The Reddit Profiles Scraper collects up to 1,000,000 public Reddit user profiles with 25+ data fields per profile, including karma breakdown, verification status, and account age, all without writing code.

✨ What Does It Do

• 📊 Total Karma - Compare user influence across the platform by total contributions and community impact
• 💬 Link and Comment Karma - Understand how users contribute differently, post submissions vs. replies
• 👑 Gold and Moderator Status - Identify premium members and community moderators for targeting or recruitment
• ✅ Verification Badges - Find verified Reddit employees and email-verified accounts for trust signals
• 📅 Account Age and Days Active - Filter by user tenure to find either new or long-time community members
• 🏠 Subreddit Profile Data - Collect associated subreddit names, descriptions, and subscriber counts when users have profile subreddits

🔧 Input

• Search Query - Keywords or partial username to search for on Reddit (e.g. "python developer", "machine learning")
• Start URL - Alternatively, provide a full Reddit search URL or user profile URL (e.g. https://www.reddit.com/search/users/?q=python&type=user or https://www.reddit.com/user/username)
• Max Items - Free users: limited to 100 results. Paid users: up to 1,000,000 results
• Min Karma - Only return users with at least this total karma score
• Max Karma - Only return users with up to this maximum karma score
• Only Gold Users - Filter to only collect Reddit Gold subscribers
• Only Moderators - Filter to only collect active subreddit moderators
• Sort By - Choose between relevance or karma sorting for results
• Time Filter - Filter users by account creation time (all time, past day, week, month, or year)
• Proxy Configuration - Use Apify residential proxies to avoid blocks and rotate IP addresses

Example input:

{
  "searchQuery": "python developer",
  "maxItems": 50,
  "minKarma": 1000,
  "onlyModerators": false,
  "sortBy": "karma",
  "timeFilter": "year"
}
