What Reddit data costs through RouterGrowth, and how a call is billed

A Reddit keyword search through RouterGrowth is priced per post returned. The quote is shown before the call, the charge settles on what came back, and a search that finds nothing costs nothing. There is no plan, seat or monthly minimum, and nothing from Reddit's own developer pricing applies.

Ask your agent

Before you run it, tell me what a search for 20 Reddit posts about our category would cost, then run it if it is under the cap.

How to Scrape Difficult Websites at Scale: Inside a Web Scraping API Processing 10B+ Pages a Month | AMA with Batuhan from Scrape.dor/WebScrapingInsider2026-09-21
I scraped billions of TikTok videos and profiles by reverse engineering the mobile API. Here's how it works + source coder/SaaS2026-10-04

Five posts for web scraping api, from r/WebScrapingInsider, r/SaaS, r/Python and an agent community. The run cost shown is the whole charge for those five posts.

Step by step

How do you do it?

  1. Set the limit

    The limit is the most posts the call may return. It is also what the quote is built on, so a small limit keeps a test cheap.

  2. Read the quote

    inspect shows the price per post for Reddit before anything runs, and max_cost stops a call that would go above your cap.

  3. Run and settle

    The charge is taken on the posts actually returned. If the search finds nothing, nothing is charged.

  4. Check the receipt

    Every run keeps its run id, the provider, the records and the charge, in the dashboard and through the runs endpoint.

In practice

What do you ask it?

You describe the job; the agent picks the calls, shows the price and runs them.

Before you run it, tell me what a search for 20 Reddit posts about our category would cost, then run it if it is under the cap.

Search Reddit for web scraping api, keep the five newest posts and read the replies on the busiest one.

Worth knowing

What should you know first?

No Reddit price list here

This page does not quote Reddit's own API tiers. RouterGrowth is independent and its prices are its own, shown live on this page.

Prepaid wallet

Calls draw from one prepaid balance shared with every other capability, so Reddit, X and SERP data sit on the same bill.

A cap on every call

Set max_cost on a run and the router refuses any provider that would cost more, instead of charging past it.

FAQ

Questions about reddit api pricing

How is a Reddit search priced?

Per post returned, with a quote before the call. The price block on this page is read live from the catalog.

Am I charged when nothing matches?

No. A search with no posts is not billed.

Is there a subscription?

No. You top up a wallet and each call draws from it. Optional monthly plans exist for teams that want a lower rate.

Does this include Reddit's commercial API terms?

No. RouterGrowth is not Reddit's API and does not sell access to it. It returns public posts through its own providers.
