What Is the Reddit Comment Exporter?

The Reddit Comment Exporter pulls a thread's post and its comments, up to 300, with each comment's author, score and reply depth and a link back to it. Export everything as CSV or JSON for analysis, or just skim the thread in a cleaner view than Reddit's own.

Up to 300 comments with authors and scores

A permalink to every comment
Deleted and removed comments skipped
CSV and JSON export

Reddit Is a Goldmine for Research

People are blunt on Reddit. Threads about products, tools and services are full of real complaints, comparisons and recommendations you won't find in polished reviews. Exporting a thread lets you sort comments by score, search them, or hand them to an AI model to pull out the main themes.

What the Exporter Can and Can't See

Reddit loads big threads in pieces, so one export covers the comments Reddit returns on the first load, up to 300. Very large threads keep more replies behind “load more” links. Deleted and removed comments are skipped, but live replies underneath them are kept.

Common Use Cases

  • Researching what users say about a product or competitor
  • Collecting feedback threads for product teams
  • Gathering data for academic or market research
  • Archiving a thread before it gets locked or deleted

Frequently Asked Questions

Is the Reddit Comment Exporter free?

Yes. It's free with a ProxyHorizon account, and every account gets 25 runs a day shared across all our data tools. You can read about the tool without signing in, but running it needs an account because each run fetches live data.

How many comments can I export?

Up to 300 per run, from the comments Reddit returns on the first load of the thread.

Does it include nested replies?

Yes. Every comment has a depth: 0 for top-level comments, 1 for replies to them, and so on.

Why are some comments missing?

Deleted and removed comments are skipped, and very large threads hide some replies behind “load more” links that a single export doesn’t open.

Can I export comments from private subreddits?

No. Only public posts can be read.
