The job

What the Reddit search API gives your agent

Reddit is where buyers ask each other what to buy and complain when it fails. Your agent searches posts and comments by keyword and reads back the title, the subreddit, the score and the number of comments. It surfaces the threads where your category is discussed, and the words people use for it.

Two providers answer. One searches posts or comments across all of Reddit, with sort and time-frame options, and returns the fields a reader needs: title, author, text, subreddit, score, upvote ratio, comment count and link. The other runs the dynamic search of the Reddit app and covers posts, communities, comments, media and users.

Sample calls

The request and what comes back

Each run is one POST to /v1/runs with an endpoint id and an input. These are illustrative calls with generic values. The run's result holds the provider's own fields.

ResponseSample output
// POST /v1/runs, then read run.status and run.result

Before you start

Settle these before the first run

  • Choose posts or comments. Posts give the thread, and comments give the opinions inside it.
  • Set a time window. A thread from three years ago ranks well but may describe a product that no longer exists.
  • Read before you reply. Reddit is strict about promotion, and your agent should only collect the research.

FAQ

Questions people ask

Read the threads where buyers compare tools, copy the words they use for the problem and note which alternatives they name. Your agent can group the threads by subreddit and rank them by score and comment count.
