October 11, 2026
The first public version of the API.
Reading Reddit
- Post: a post with up to 2,000 comments, nested as on Reddit, as JSON or one Markdown document. Reddit's "load more comments" links are followed for you. A comment permalink, or
commentwithcontext, returns that comment, its parents and its replies. - A digest on every post: the original poster's replies, the most upvoted comments and the controversial ones, as Reddit reports them.
- Things: up to 100 posts and comments by ID or URL in one call.
- Duplicates: where else a post's link was shared, and its crossposts.
- Subreddits: posts by hot, new, top, rising or controversial, newest comments, description and rules, and popular or new subreddits.
- Search for posts, subreddits or users, and comment search.
- Users: profile and karma, posts and comments.
- Every list pages with
afterand leaves out NSFW items unless you passnsfw=true. See Listings and pages.
Keyword monitors
- Monitors watch every new Reddit post and comment for your keywords and send matches to a webhook, Slack or Discord, or keep them for you to poll. 10 credits a day per monitor.
Agents
- An MCP server with seven tools, billed like the routes they call.
Pricing
- One credit is a post with up to 500 comments, or a page of up to 100 items. Credit packs from $9; credits never expire and failed requests are free. See Pricing.
