How do I connect an AI assistant to Reddit?

Configure https://posttodata.com/mcp and an Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_KEY header in a remote MCP client. Call search_posts with platform reddit, then get_comments for a returned post. Results include source URLs.

Your results will appear here. Choose a platform and action, then press Run.

Real API calls require verification for one trial, or a signed-in account with prepaid credit.

From code

curl

curl "https://posttodata.com/v1/reddit/search?query=obsidian+vs+notion&limit=5" -H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_KEY"

Python

import requests

r = requests.get(
    "https://posttodata.com/v1/reddit/search",
    headers={"Authorization": "Bearer YOUR_API_KEY"},
    params={"query": "obsidian vs notion", "limit": 5},
)
for item in r.json()["data"]["items"]:
    print(item["url"], item.get("text") or item.get("title"))

From your AI

Claude and ChatGPT clients that support OAuth can sign in without pasting a key. Follow the client setup guide. The command below is the API-key option for Claude Code.

Add the MCP server once

claude mcp add --transport http posttodata https://posttodata.com/mcp --header "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_KEY"

Then ask

“Compare Reddit discussions of Obsidian and Notion, with links.”

The model calls search_posts with platform reddit.
