🇨🇳 Bilibili Video Search by Keyword · B站视频搜索 (No Login)

Turn any keyword into a ranked dataset of Bilibili (B站) videos — BV-id, title, uploader, play count, likes, danmaku (弹幕) count, duration, publish date and thumbnail — with no login, no official API key, and no cookie. Unlike URL-by-URL Bilibili scrapers, this actor is built around keyword search: feed it 人工智能 or "machine learning" and get the newest-and-hottest matches back as clean JSON or CSV. It serves two jobs especially well — assembling Chinese-language video/text training corpora for AI teams, and tracking what's trending with China's Gen-Z audience.

Pricing: $1 ≈ 20 videos (Pay-Per-Event, $0.05 per video). Optional add-ons: sentiment +$0.02/video, social-handle extraction +$0.10/video (both off by default).

💰 Pricing

Event	Price (USD)	When it is charged
Actor Start (apify-actor-start)	$0.005	Charged when the Actor starts running. Number of events charged depends on Actor memory (one event per GB, minimum one event).
video (apify-default-dataset-item)	$0.05	One Bilibili video record returned.
Sentiment scored (opt-in addon) (addon-sentiment-scored)	$0.02	VADER sentiment scored over title + description. Opt-in via addonSentimentScored toggle.
Social handles extracted (opt-in addon) (addon-social-handles-extracted)	$0.1	Creator's bilibili space page scraped + regex for FB/X/LI/IG/YT/TikTok/GitHub. Opt-in via addonSocialHandlesExtracted toggle.

Pay-per-event: you pay only for what the run delivers. A run that delivers nothing bills no result events (only the actor-start event, when the actor defines one). Example: a run that delivers 100 results costs 100 × $0.05 = $5.00 plus the start fee.

🤖 For AI agents & automation

An agent can research Chinese social and consumer trends on Bilibili — search a keyword and rank videos by engagement (plays, likes, danmaku) to gauge topic momentum. Note: a search that returns no results emits a single status record (billing-fair); keyword search may require a login cookie for some queries.

Sample agent prompt:

Search Bilibili for '智能手表' and return the top videos by play count with author and likes.

Output fields (one item per result):

• bvid — Bilibili video id
• url — video URL
• title — video title
• description — video description
• author — uploader name
• play_count — view count
• danmaku_count — on-screen comment count
• favorites — favorite count
• likes — like count
• tag — video tags
• pub_date — publish date

Agentic payment (x402): this Actor uses Pay-Per-Event pricing, so AI agents can run it via Apify's experimental x402 agentic-payment support — pay per call in USDC on Base, no Apify account or API key required ($1 minimum).

🧩 Optional add-ons (opt-in — you pay only if you switch them on)

Base price is $0.05/video. Flip either flag in the input to enrich every result:

• addonSentimentScored — adds a sentiment label + score (title + description) to each video, so you can rank results by audience mood with no post-processing. +$0.02/video ($20 / 1,000).
• addonSocialHandlesExtracted — pulls creator/brand handles out of each description for outreach and lead lists. +$0.10/video ($100 / 1,000).

Both default to off; leave them off and you pay only the base per-video price.

Use cases

1. Build a Chinese-language video metadata corpus (titles + danmaku signals) for LLM / NLP training.
2. Trend tracking — surging topics and creators on B站 for a keyword.
3. Brand & campaign monitoring with China's Gen-Z audience.
4. Equity / consumer research on Chinese media, gaming, anime, EV and streaming.
5. KOL / creator discovery by topic, ranked by play count and danmaku.

Sample input

{ "keyword": "人工智能", "max_results": 100 }

keyword is required; max_results caps the number of videos returned.

Sample output

Each record returns bvid, title, author, play, like, danmaku, duration, pubdate, pic:

{ "bvid": "BV1xx411c7mD", "title": "10分钟看懂大语言模型", "author": "AI科技频道", "play": 482000, "like": 31200, "danmaku": 4870, "duration": "10:42", "pubdate": "2026-06-18" }

FAQ

Does the Bilibili scraper need login, an API key, or cookies? No — it runs out of the box with none.

Can I search Bilibili by keyword (not just by URL)? Yes — keyword search is the core function; it returns a ranked list, unlike URL-only scrapers.

What is danmaku and why does it matter? Danmaku (弹幕) are on-screen scrolling comments; the count is a high-signal Gen-Z engagement metric per video.

Can it output Chinese-language AI training data? Yes — structured titles and metadata across many videos per keyword, ready for a notebook, vector DB, or training pipeline.

Does it work outside China without a VPN? Yes — it runs on Apify with a proxy; no VPN on your side.
