How it works

Three steps.
Thread to export.

01

Open the thread.

Any subreddit where your customer hangs out — r/SaaS, r/skincareaddiction, r/parenting, r/personalfinance. The extension lights up automatically. Old + new Reddit, both.

02

Click extract.

Eight seconds. Every comment, every nested reply, every score, every permalink — including the 1.4k replies hidden behind “more replies” batches.

03

Read the patterns.

Top phrases. Repeated objections. Common questions. High-engagement comments. Surfaced in the same popup — ready to paste into a CSV, a Google Doc, or your ad.

What you walk away with

Three things you
walk away with.

Real text you can paste. Structure you can analyze. Patterns you can act on. No setup, no API keys, no AI making things up — just the thread you were already reading, made useful.

01 · The textFree

Customer language, verbatim.

Comment id, parent id, depth, author, score, ISO timestamp, body, permalink — into CSV, JSON, or markdown. Three copy modes (plain, structured, markdown) for pasting straight into a doc, a Slack, or an LLM.

02 · The structureFree

The thread, not just the text.

See who replied to whom, where the disagreement starts, where the “actually…” sub-thread explodes. Hierarchy preserved. Collapsed batches auto-expanded. Deleted comments handled. Old + new Reddit.

03 · The pain pointsPro

What hurts, in their words.

The pain point finder pulls the complaints, feature requests, and competitor mentions out of a thread — ranked by severity, each backed by a direct quote you can check.

One thread is a hook.
Ten threads is a campaign.

Plus removes the 100-comment cap and the weekly export limit, and exports any thread straight to Google Docs — for people who just want clean comment data out of Reddit. Pro is the Reddit pain point finder: AI that pulls complaints, requests, and competitor mentions out of any thread, plus objections and customer language, a saved research library, patterns across threads, and API access.

Unlimited extraction

Plus

Pull every comment from any thread — 200, 2,000, or 20,000. No per-thread cap, no weekly export limit.

Google Docs export

Plus

Saved history

Pro

Every thread you’ve extracted, kept and searchable. Reload a campaign’s worth of source material with one click.

Pain point finder

Pro

Complaints ranked by severity, the features people ask for, and the competitors they mention — each with a direct quote from the thread.

Objections + patterns

Pro

AI-generated objections, angles, and customer phrasing for your product. Patterns across every thread you save. API access included.

Built for Reddit specifically

What “every comment”
actually means.

Reddit threads aren’t flat lists. They have hierarchy, batched “more replies” loading, AMA conventions, deleted-comment edge cases, and two different page formats. We handle every one of them — so the export you get is the thread you read, intact.

Hierarchy preserved — depth, parent-id, indentation, in every export.

Auto-expands “more replies” — including deeply collapsed batches.

Old + new Reddit, same extraction quality on both.

Deleted & removed comments preserved with explicit markers.

Three copy modes — plain, structured, markdown — paste anywhere.

Native Google Docs export. No CSV → import → reformat dance.

Local-first by default. Free extraction never leaves your machine.

Insights without AI — deterministic top-words, phrases, questions.

Pricing

Start free.
Go unlimited on Plus.

Free runs the full pipeline on any thread: 100 comments per thread, 5 exports a week. Plus removes both limits and adds Google Docs export — for people who just want clean comment data out of Reddit. Pro adds the AI pain point finder on top: complaints, requests, objections, saved research, API access.

Questions

Frequently
asked.

Don’t see your question? Email us.

Is the free tier really free?

Yes — no card, no time limit. Free runs the full extractor on any thread: the first 100 comments, and 5 exports a week. That’s enough to do real work on most threads before you decide. Plus ($5/mo) removes both limits.

Does it handle threads with thousands of comments?

Yes — on Plus or Pro. AMAs, megathreads, and threads with 5,000+ comments all extract cleanly. The extension auto-expands every collapsed “more replies” batch, including the deeply nested ones most tools silently skip. Very large threads take a few extra seconds; you’ll see a live counter as it works. Free covers the first 100 comments of each thread.

What about deleted, removed, or [removed by mod] comments?

The structure is preserved either way — author, depth, parent id, score, and timestamp all stay intact. Deleted comment bodies are marked as [deleted] or [removed] so you can see where the gap is in the conversation rather than losing the shape of the thread.

How is this different from using the Reddit API directly?

No developer account. No OAuth dance. No rate-limit setup. The extension reads what your browser is already loading and structures it — same data, no plumbing. And you don’t have to write Python to get a CSV.

Where does my data go?

Nowhere. Extraction (capped or uncapped) is 100% local — your CSV and JSON write from your browser to your disk. Paid features that call our API (Docs export on Plus; Hooks and AI angles on Pro) only send the specific thread you choose to send. We never store, log, or analyze the contents.

What permissions does the extension need?

It runs only on reddit.com and old.reddit.com. activeTab reads the page you’re on; downloads writes your CSV/JSON; clipboardWrite handles copy. Sign-in is only used if you upgrade.

Can I cancel anytime?

One click in your Profile tab. Cancellation takes effect at the end of the billing period. No emails, no retention scripts.
