Google Short Videos API (retired)
I've retired Google Short Videos API, and it no longer returns data. For short-form video data, use my YouTube Shorts API instead.
Use instead
- YouTube Shorts API: Shorts from any channel's Shorts tab or from direct links, with views, likes, comments, publish time, duration, hashtags and channel stats. It starts from channels and links, not a Google search.
- YouTube Transcript API: transcripts and subtitles for any video or Short.
Most used

- YouTube: transcripts and subtitles for any video, plus downloads and Shorts
- LinkedIn: people, profiles, companies, employees and jobs, with no login or cookies
- Google Flights: fares, routes and booking options for any search
- Google Jobs: listings with salaries and apply links, or pay per job
Same deal as everything else I build: clean JSON, pay per result, no monthly rental. All are MCP-ready, so Claude, Cursor and ChatGPT can call them as tools.
Everything is catalogued at AlphaOSINT, searchable by entity, signal or field name.
