This page compares Decodo, a web scraper API, with Redlisten, an API for public Reddit posts and comments. Figures for Decodo come from its own page at decodo.com, read on 7 Nov 2026. Prices change; check the vendor before you buy.
The numbers to check
- Price per 1,000 requests: Decodo: about $1.00 per 1,000 crawls at $19, about $0.52 on the largest plan. Redlisten Pro is $29 for 50,000 requests, about $0.58 per 1,000.
- Results per call: Decodo: one crawl per page. Redlisten: up to 250 per request on Pro and 1,000 on Team, so about $0.03 per 1,000 results on Pro.
- How new posts arrive: Decodo: no live feed; you fetch a page each time you ask. Redlisten collects posts and comments as they are posted and keyword streams push each match to you. A polled Reddit listing stops near 1,000 items and an RSS fetch returns at most 100, so whatever scrolls past between polls is missed.

When Decodo is the better pick
You want ready made Reddit post, subreddit and user templates inside a wider scraping plan. That is a fair reason to choose it, and Redlisten does not try to cover every network or every workflow.
Where Redlisten is stronger
Each crawl returns one page as it looks at that moment. Redlisten returns up to 250 results per request on Pro, keeps 30 days of history, and pushes new matches through streams.
History is the other number. The last 30 days stay searchable, with mention counts per day, so you can answer "what was said about this last week" without having watched at the time. And a keyword stream backfills those 30 days the moment you create it, then delivers each new match to Slack, Discord, a webhook or an email digest.
Questions to ask any Reddit data vendor
Whoever you choose, ask four things. How many results does one paid call return, and are empty results billed? How far back can you search, and does that include comments? Are new posts pushed to you, or do you poll and diff? And what happens to your bill on a busy day, when a keyword you track suddenly gets ten times the usual mentions?
What a switch looks like
Redlisten answers Reddit style paths such as /r/{sub}/new.json, /comments/{id}.json and /search.json at api.redlisten.com, so code that already reads Reddit's JSON layout ports by changing the base URL and adding a key. Feed readers use the same paths with .rss. For new work, /v1/posts and /v1/comments give a cursor feed of everything collected, and /v1/streams creates a keyword watch. The docs list every endpoint and the fields each returns.
A free key is created at signup with 250 requests and 10,000 results a month and no card. Pro is $29 a month for 50,000 requests and 1 million results, Team $99 for 250,000 requests and 5 million results, Business $299 for 1 million requests and 10 million results. Every plan is listed on the pricing page, dated 6 Nov 2026.
