Pricing
You pay one price per returned comment or reply (see the Pricing tab). Empty, failed and rejected rows are free. The run stops when it reaches your maximum charge.
What it does not do (yet)
- No exact dates. YouTube shows relative times such as
7 days ago. - No total comment count for the video.
- No date filter.
- Channel links are not accepted. To get comments for a channel's videos, list the videos first with our YouTube Channel Scraper.
For transcripts, use YouTube Transcript.
