YouTube Channel Stats & Videos Scraper

Channel subscribers, video count, description and links, plus the latest videos with views and duration — without an API key and without the Data API's daily quota.

What you can do with it

• Influencer research — subscriber counts and recent performance for a list of channels.
• Competitor tracking — onlyNewVideos on a schedule tells you what they published.
• Content analysis — pull hundreds of video titles with view counts to see what works.
• Shorts vs long-form — channelTab switches between videos, Shorts and past live streams.
