Free tier — 10 results free on every run

The first 10 results of every run are free, on every run you ever make — not a one-off trial. One guard: the free allowance never covers more than half of a run, so the offer stays sustainable.

FAQ

Do I need a Bilibili account, cookie or VPN? No.

Why only 3 comments per video? Bilibili shows 3 comments to visitors who are not logged in. This Actor does not log in.

Can I get a creator's full upload list? Not at the moment: Bilibili protects that page for visitors. Search the creator's name as a keyword, or pass the video links.

Can I call it from code? Yes: Apify API, Python and JavaScript clients, Make, Zapier, n8n, or as an MCP tool.
