  • Reddit MCP server: search posts, subreddit feeds, comments & user profiles as JSON. No API key.

  • Reddit API as MCP tools: search, subreddits, posts, comments, users, monitors, webhooks, feedback.

  • Your agent needs to know what a community actually thinks — which subreddit is discussing your category, what the top posts argue, what the comment tree says underneath. **What you can ask for** • "Which subreddits discuss project-management tools, and how big are they?" • "Find posts complaining about Notion pricing in the last month." • "Read the full comment tree on this thread and summarise the disagreement." • "What is r/selfhosted posting about this week?" • "Search every community for mentions of our product name." **How to use it** Point any MCP client at https://mcp.aisa.one/reddit/mcp and sign in with OAuth — there is no key to create or paste. 5 read tools: search across all of Reddit or inside one subreddit, browse a subreddit's post stream, read a subreddit's details, and pull a post's comment tree. **It is also a door to the rest** The same login reaches 26 sources and 580+ operations. Find the complaint here, then ask the same agent what the competitor's traffic or backlinks look like — without adding a second server. **What it costs** Finding and inspecting an operation is free. Running one is billed per call at API prices, with no seat and no monthly minimum, and every call takes max_price_usd so an agent cannot overspend by accident. **Where else it reaches** https://mcp.aisa.one/social/mcp for X plus Instagram, Reddit, Pinterest and YouTube; https://mcp.aisa.one/gtm/mcp for those plus Similarweb and Apollo.
