Replace zachking with your competitor's handle and run. You get one row per top reel with the script, on-screen text, hook, beat structure, call to action, format and how far it beat the creator's median views.
Yes. Put several handles in the field. Each reel is scored against its own creator's median, so rows stay comparable across accounts of different sizes. Sort by that multiple, then group by hook type.
Yes. Export the dataset from the run's Output tab as CSV, Excel or JSON, or fetch it with the Apify API. Classification columns use fixed values, so they are easy to filter and group in a sheet.
Each row includes a link to the video file and the moment that link expires. Save the file before then, or analyze the reel again for a fresh link. The actor itself does not store the videos.
Switch the sort to Newest, or keep Top performing and set a posted-within window such as 90 days to see what works right now. A minimum views filter keeps only their bigger hits.
