List the posts of one or many Substack newsletters in seconds. Paste newsletter names or URLs, get a clean table of titles, dates, reactions, comments, authors and paywall status. No login, no browser, no API key.

What you get

One dataset item per post:

  • title, subtitle, url, postDate, type (newsletter, podcast, thread)
  • reactions (likes), comments, restacks
  • isPaywalled and audience (free or paid)
  • authors, authorHandles, section, tags
  • excerpt, wordcount, coverImage, language
  • publication and publicationUrl

Input

  • Newsletters: names (platformer), Substack addresses (platformer.substack.com) or custom domains (https://www.lennysnewsletter.com). One per line. Different names for the same newsletter are scraped once.
  • Max posts per newsletter: default 20.
  • Sort: newest first or top posts first.
  • Only posts from the last N days, minimum reactions, free or paid posts, and a keyword search inside each newsletter.
  • Max posts in total: hard cap across all newsletters.

Example

{
"publications": ["https://www.lennysnewsletter.com", "platformer"],
"maxPostsPerPublication": 20,
"sinceDays": 30,
"audience": "free"
}

Pricing

Pay per result: you are charged for each post saved to the dataset, plus a tiny start fee. Set a maximum cost per run in the Apify run options to cap spending. A 20-post run on one newsletter usually finishes in a few seconds.

Good to know

  • Only public information is collected: what Substack shows on a newsletter archive. Paywalled posts show their title and excerpt, never their paid content.
  • Newsletters that do not exist are skipped and reported in the log; the rest of the run continues.
  • Need full article text, comments or subscriber data? This Actor is intentionally lightweight and does not collect them.
