Reddit User Scraper - Profile, Stats, Overview, Posts & Comments

Overview

The Reddit User Scraper is an all-in-one Reddit user intelligence tool. For each username it can collect profile metadata, engagement stats, overview activity, submitted posts, and comments — then emit type-tagged JSON rows for flexible downstream filtering.

Built for OSINT workflows, growth and research teams, and developers who want one actor instead of wiring profile + posts + comments scrapers separately. Toggle each section on or off to control cost and runtime while still receiving clean, structured JSON.

Accepts plain names, u/ / @ prefixes, and profile URLs. Concurrent workers process multiple users efficiently.

Features

• Multi-username runs with concurrent workers
• Optional modules: profile, stats, overview, posts, comments
• Overview sort: new, hot, top, controversial
• Configurable activity maxResults (1–100, default 25)
• Type-tagged rows: profile, overview, post, comment, error
• Profile fields: karma, bio, avatar, verification, mod/gold/employee flags
• Absolute permalinks for posts and comments
• Resilient per-user error rows

Use Cases

• Sales intelligence — Enrich accounts with Reddit reputation and topics
• Recruitment — Review public writing across posts and comments
• Competitor analysis — Full dossiers on rival founders or employees
• Brand monitoring — Watchlist key voices with posts + comments
• Lead generation — Qualify social proof before outreach
• AI training datasets — Author-linked multimodal Reddit activity
• Academic research — Holistic user-level datasets
• Business intelligence — Maintain living profiles of industry voices
