How this service works
Reddit comment-thread scraper — the comment tree of any Reddit post for AI agents. Pass a post URL and get the post plus its nested comments (depth- and limit-controlled): for each comment the author, body, score, nesting depth, parent id, permalink, OP flag, and timestamp; a truncated flag plus totalComments show when a thread has more than returned. No login, no Reddit API key. Analyze discussion, sentiment, and community reaction on any thread.
Output
Returns the Reddit post's metadata (title, author, score, subreddit, selfText) plus an array of comments each containing author, body, score, depth, parent ID, permalink, isSubmitter flag, and timestamp; also includes a truncated flag and totalComments count so you know if there are more comments than returned.
Example use cases
Example prompt
“Pull the comment thread from this Reddit post for me — https://www.reddit.com/r/technology/comments/abc123/some_post/ — grab up to 50 comments with a nesting depth of 5 so I can see what the community is saying.”
Technical details
Endpoint
GEThttps://reddit.apitoll.cloud/v1/reddit/commentsWhen to prefer
Use this endpoint when you need to read, analyze, or summarize the discussion in a specific Reddit thread without a Reddit API key or login. Ideal for sentiment analysis, community reaction research, or extracting opinions from a known post URL. Prefer this over the subreddit feed scraper (which lists posts) or the search scraper (which finds posts by keyword) when you already have the post URL and want its comments.
Side effects
- Invalid or malformed Reddit post URL returns an error
- Post is deleted or removed — returns empty comments or error
- Reddit rate-limiting or blocking the scraper may cause failures
- Thread with 0 comments returns post metadata but empty comments array
- Depth or limit parameters out of range rejected by schema validation
