Social Scraper+ free tier
10 scrapes included. Each click on Scrape Comments or Scrape Replies on a Reddit thread or X post uses one scrape. Exports do not cost extra: clipboard, AI prompt, CSV, and JSON all work on the free tier.
No credit card to install. No account required. Data stays in your browser.
Ten scrapes is enough to validate the workflow on real research threads before you commit.
How other "free" social scrapers compare
Some tools offer one export per day, or cap results at 100 comments per thread. Others give you a free extension but lock AI export or unlimited runs behind a $10 to $45 monthly plan.
Insight Social: about 10 runs per month free. ExportComments: about one export per day on their public plan. Thunderbit: about six pages per month on free.
Social Scraper+ free tier is 10 total scrapes with all export formats, not one per day. Different math if you batch research in a single afternoon.
Is the best free social scraper actually free forever?
If you scrape regularly, you will hit limits on any tool. The question is what happens next: another monthly subscription, or a one-time payment.
Social Scraper+ Pro is a one-time license for unlimited Reddit and X scrapes on one browser. No run counter resetting on the first of the month.
See pricing for current Pro rates and the launch offer.
When to upgrade from free
Upgrade when you scrape more than a few threads per week, need unlimited runs for ongoing research, or want to stop thinking about limits mid-project.
Stay on free if you scrape occasionally and 10 runs covers your trial. Reinstalling will not reset the counter; the limit is tied to your browser install.
