It loads everything

Every hidden reply is fetched in the background, at the pace Reddit allows. Close the page if you like: it continues.

Export or copy

Download CSV, JSON, Markdown, HTML or the AI pack, or copy the thread as text straight into ChatGPT or Claude.

Formats

The right file for every job

Clean up before you export: skip removed comments and bots, keep only comments above a score, or stop at a depth.

Excel / CSV

One row per comment with its thread, author, score, date and parent. Pivot tables in seconds.

Markdown

Replies indented under their parent. Paste it into ChatGPT or Claude and ask your questions.

AI pack (JSONL)

Chunks of the size you choose, each with the thread’s title and question. For RAG, embeddings and fine-tuning.

JSON (nested)

The full tree: replies inside their parent comment, for your own code.

HTML

A clean page to read offline, print or save as PDF.

ZIP

Collections: one Markdown file per thread, plus one CSV with every comment.

Search

Find any comment you ever exported

Every thread you export joins your library. Search all their comments at once, by word, phrase or u/username, then jump to the thread it came from.

  • Searches thousands of comments in milliseconds
  • Results ranked by score, with the thread title
  • Works offline: your library stays on your computer

FAQ

Common questions

Something else? Write to support@getsocialexport.com. Guide: how to export a Reddit thread.

How do I export all comments from a Reddit thread?

Open the thread on reddit.com, click the Thread Exporter icon and choose “Export all comments”. The extension follows every “load more comments” and “continue this thread” link for you, then exports to Excel/CSV, Markdown, JSON or HTML.

Can I export a whole subreddit?

Yes. Open the subreddit (or paste its link), choose the sort (hot, new, top of the week, month, year, all time), how many posts (up to 1,000 with Pro) and whether to load every comment of each post. Searches and user profiles work the same way.

Which format should I use for ChatGPT or Claude?

For a few threads, Markdown: replies are indented, so the AI understands who answers whom. Use “Copy as text” and paste. For many threads or your own AI tools, the JSONL AI pack splits each thread into chunks of the size you choose, each carrying the thread’s title and question.

Is it fast? Will Reddit block me?

It reads Reddit’s own rate-limit headers and paces itself to stay within them, waiting automatically if Reddit asks to slow down. A 1,000-comment thread takes about a minute.

Do I need a Reddit account?

No, for public subreddits. For a private community you belong to, be logged in on reddit.com: the extension then reads through your session.

Is it free?

Yes for threads up to 300 comments and 25 posts per subreddit, with CSV and Markdown exports. Pro ($19.90 once) removes the limits and adds the AI pack, JSON, HTML and ZIP exports.
