Summarize long Reddit threads in one click.
Reddit Summarizer (the Reddit Analyzer extension) turns comment chaos into structured insights, fast. Fetch every comment, clean the noise, and send it to the AI model you pick.
Threads, subreddits, and search pages supported. Works on reddit.com.
One click to extract the gold from hundreds or thousands of comments.
Why AI chatbots can't analyze Reddit threads
TL;DR: AI agents like ChatGPT and Claude hit fundamental limits when analyzing Reddit. Browser extensions solve this by operating as you—with full page access and no restrictions.
Token limits
AI context windows cap at 128k-400k tokens. Large Reddit threads can exceed 1 million tokens of content.
API blocked
Reddit restricts API access: 60 requests/minute, 1,000-item pagination ceiling, OAuth required.
Scraping blocked
Reddit actively blocks bots with CAPTCHAs and dynamic HTML. Extensions run as you—no blocking.
Reddit Summarizer vs AI Chatbots

| Bypass rate limits | ❌ API blocked | ✅ Runs as user |
| Real-time analysis | ❌ Requires scraping | ✅ Instant processing |
| Works on any thread | ❌ Length restrictions | ✅ No limits |
