Turn public RedNote notes, engagement counts, threaded comments and creator profiles into an Excel sheet or a JSON feed. Runs on a daily schedule. No proxies, no cookies, no code, nothing to maintain.
Free plan · No RedNote account connected · No Chinese phone number or mainland IP required
Everything below is public content — notes, counts, comments and profiles that any visitor can see. Field names are the ones you actually get back, whether you read them in the dashboard or in the API response.
Every public note on a creator’s profile, from a keyword search, or from the hot list.
The numbers you benchmark against — pulled per note, refreshed on every collection run.
For influencer shortlisting, KOL vetting and follower-growth tracking.
Threaded comments with author info — the raw material for voice-of-customer research.
Find what is breaking out before you decide what to track.
Two shapes, same data. Pick a spreadsheet if you are briefing a team, or JSON if you are feeding a dashboard.
One click from the dashboard. Every collected note becomes a row, with these columns:
| # | Column |
|---|---|
| 1 | Title |
| 2 | Platform |
| 3 | Media type |
| 4 | Collection plan |
| 5 | Blogger |
| 6 | Publish time |
| 7 | Likes |
| 8 | Comments |
| 9 | Shares |
| 10 | Collects |
| 11 | Crawl time |
| 12 | Content |
| 13 | Subtitle |
| 14 | Source URL |

}For marketers and analysts. Add the RedNote creators and competitor accounts you care about, and collection runs itself every day.
For developers. One stable endpoint per data type, clean JSON back, English docs with example requests in cURL, Python and Node.
If you are shopping for a RedNote scraper you are probably comparing three things: a managed product, a marketplace actor, and a GitHub script you run yourself. Here is the honest split — an open-source scraper is genuinely the cheapest option if you enjoy maintaining it.
| SpiderHubs | Apify marketplace actor | Open-source / DIY script | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Time to first RedNote export | Minutes — sign up, paste a profile URL | Hours — find an actor, read its input schema, test it | Days — reverse-engineer signing, wire up storage |
| Who maintains it when RedNote changes | We do, server-side | Whichever third-party actor author you picked | You, every time it breaks |
| No-code option | Yes — web dashboard, scheduled daily collection | Partly — console runs, but input schemas are developer-shaped | No |
| Chinese phone number / mainland IP | Not required | Depends on the actor | Usually required, plus a logged-in cookie |
| Account / cookie risk | None — you never connect an account | Some actors ask for your cookie | Yours — bans hit the account you supplied |
| Comments & threaded replies | Included | Varies by actor | Separate endpoint to build |
| Trending / hot list | Included, real time | Rarely covered | Separate endpoint to build |
| Other platforms on the same account | TikTok, Douyin, YouTube, Instagram, X | Separate actor and bill per platform | Separate scraper per platform |
| Export | Excel (.xlsx) one-click, or JSON via REST API | Dataset export (JSON/CSV/Excel) | Whatever you write |
| Billing | Free plan; paid from $5.30/mo, or pay-as-you-go credits | Per actor run — including runs that return nothing | Free code, paid proxies + your time |
Apify is a marketplace: RedNote coverage, field depth and reliability depend on the individual actor you choose and its author. Comparison reflects the general marketplace model, not any one actor.
Track a brand on RedNote and TikTok side by side without buying a second tool.

Yes. RedNote is the English name of Xiaohongshu (小红书, sometimes translated "Little Red Book"). A RedNote scraper and a Xiaohongshu scraper are the same tool — SpiderHubs covers both names with one integration.
No. The web dashboard lets you add the creators or competitors you want to track, run collection on a daily schedule, and export everything to Excel. The REST API is there if you would rather pipe JSON into your own warehouse or notebook.
No to all three. You sign up with any email and pay in USD through Stripe. You never connect a RedNote account, so there is no account to get restricted.
One-click Excel (.xlsx) from the dashboard, and JSON from the REST API. Excel export is available on the paid plans; the API returns JSON on every plan.
Collection plans run automatically every day and capture each tracked account’s new notes plus updated engagement counts. You can also fetch any profile, note or comment thread on demand through the API.
SpiderHubs collects only publicly visible content — the same notes, counts and profiles any logged-out visitor can see. It does not bypass login walls or collect private data. How you use the data is your responsibility: follow the source platform’s terms, applicable data-protection law, and copyright rules. See our Terms for the full statement.
Free plan, no credit card. Paid plans from $5.30/month, or pay-as-you-go credits.
