Dailymotion Scraper: videos, channels, playlists and search, with views and likes

Search Dailymotion by keyword, list every public video of a channel or playlist, or look up a batch of video links. Each video comes back as one flat row: title, description, views, likes, duration, upload date, tags, language, country, thumbnail, embed link, geo-blocking rules and the uploader's name, followers and verified badge. Add channel rows for follower counts, total videos, total views, avatar and social links.

No API key, no login, no cookies. Platform usage is included in the price.

Part of the same family as the YouTube Search Scraper, YouTube Channel Scraper and YouTube Comments Scraper: the same kind of input (keywords, channels, links, caps, new-since-last-run), the same flat rows (type: "video" and type: "channel") and the same plain-English run status, so a video team can watch both platforms with one setup.

Who it is for

• Brand and media monitoring. Track what is published about a topic, a brand or a competitor on Dailymotion, newest first, and run it daily with Only new videos since the last run.
• Publishers and media buyers. Vet a channel before a deal: audience size, posting cadence, views per video, language and country.
• Researchers and analysts. Build a dataset of a channel's whole archive, or of everything Dailymotion has on a keyword in a period.
• Content and rights teams. Check which videos are geo-blocked where, and find re-uploads of your own catalogue.

What you get

Rows are told apart by type. The Videos view of the dataset shows the videos, the Channels view the channel rows.

Pricing

Pay per row delivered, platform usage included, plus a flat start fee per run.

Plan	Per 1,000 videos	Per 1,000 channel rows	Run start
Free	$1.50	$3.00	$0.001
Bronze	$1.35	$2.70	$0.001
Silver	$1.20	$2.40	$0.001
Gold	$1.05	$2.10	$0.001

Private, deleted, unpublished and (if you ask) geo-blocked videos are not charged, and neither are sources Dailymotion refuses. Set a maximum charge per run and the actor stops when it is reached.

Limits and honest caveats

• Dailymotion lists at most 1,000 results per query. Channels, and keyword searches sorted by newest or oldest, go past that: the actor walks date windows, so a channel with 70,000 videos can be collected in full (set Max videos per source high enough and allow the run time). Searches sorted by relevance, views or trending stop at 1,000 and the run status says so; narrow them with dates, language or category.
• Relevance order repeats a few videos across pages on Dailymotion's side; they are delivered once, so a 1,000-result relevance search can return fewer than 1,000 rows.
• Adult-flagged videos are not in Dailymotion's public listings and are not returned by keyword, channel or playlist runs. A direct video link to one is still looked up.
• Public data only. Private videos and private playlists cannot be read without a login; they are named in the run status and not charged.
• Likes are Dailymotion's like count; comment counts are not exposed by the public API.
• Geo-blocking is reported, not bypassed. geoRule/geoCountries tell you where a video is blocked.

FAQ

Do I need a Dailymotion account or API key? No.

Can I get all videos of a channel? Yes, newest first, up to Max videos per source (up to 100,000).

Why did a source return nothing? The run status says which: Dailymotion has no such channel, playlist or video; it is private; the keyword matches nothing; or your filters dropped everything.

How do I get only new videos every day? Put your keywords or channels on a schedule with Only new videos since the last run and Sort by newest. Quiet days cost only the run start.
