Turn any YouTube channel, video, Short, or search query into structured JSON: subscriber and view counts, video metadata, comment threads, and ranked search results.
The YouTube Scraper API resolves channels, individual videos and Shorts, comment threads, captions, and search results. Hand us a channel URL, video ID, or query and we return subscriber and view counts, durations, descriptions, and engagement.
Built for media-monitoring, creator-analytics, and trend-research platforms that need dependable YouTube data beyond the quota limits of the official API. We extract public data only and normalize counts and timestamps.

No quota ceilings, no OAuth project setup, and access to fields the official API doesn't expose cleanly. You get the same structured data with the reliability of our delivery and pay-for-data-delivered billing.
Structured JSON straight from the API, or pushed to your stack natively — S3, BigQuery, Snowflake, Postgres, Kafka, or any HTTPS webhook. Call it from Python, Node, Go, Rust, or any HTTP client. The data lands where your pipeline already lives.
No. You pay for valid, schema-passing rows only. Retries, blocks, CAPTCHAs, and 5xxs are on us. If a run doesn't return data that conforms to the schema, it isn't billed.
Every request routes through the same engine behind our Web Unblocker API: compliant residential IPs, real browser fingerprints, TLS-level evasion, behaviour modelling, and built-in CAPTCHA solving. Hard targets become routine.
Yes. We respect robots policies, rate budgets, and ToS-aware allow/deny lists. We deliver and move on — no row-level retention beyond your replay window. GDPR DPA, PII redaction, and custom data residency available on request.
