Was paying for an apify reddit actor that kept breaking on comment pagination. this just works in claude code, full threads, user history, subreddit search. no reddit oauth app to set up, which was the whole reason I switched

Using it as a reddit monitoring tool for lead gen. keyword monitor on a handful of subs, email alert when someone asks for what we sell. npx -y redditapis-mcp@latest and it was running in claude desktop the same afternoon

Good reddit scraper api for agent work, 55 tools is a lot though, I only use search, comments and user history. billing is per call so check your balance before a big pull. otherwise solid and way less hassle than praw plus proxies

Replaced our pushshift setup with this for comment search. we track brand mentions across about 30 subs and the monitor posts straight to a webhook, so no more cron job scraping reddit at 3am. took maybe 20 min to wire up

Needed a reddit api alternative after the api key approval stalled for weeks. plugged the mcp into cursor, asked it to pull every comment on a 2k reply thread and it came back as one clean tree. the subreddit rules tool saved me from getting a post removed too
Thanks Alex, glad the Cursor setup worked and the rules check saved your post. Tell us what to add next.

we have also launch Articos MCP today, all the best! Would be exploring how reddit APIs works.
Hi, Emma here. RedditAPIs is a Reddit MCP server and Reddit API alternative for AI agents. One npx line gives Claude or Cursor 55 Reddit tools: search, comment trees, users, monitors with webhooks, even posting and DMs. Prefer HTTP? The same 74 endpoints take one bearer key with no Reddit app approval, from $0.0015 a read with $0.50 free credit. Which tools should we add next?
