YouTube Comment Miner

Turn YouTube comments into tagged research data. Try demo first, then export CSV/JSON/Markdown locally.

YouTube Comment Miner turns the comments on any YouTube video into structured research data: tag demand signals and risky patterns with local rules, filter them in a table, and export to CSV, JSON or Markdown. Try it right away, no API key or setup needed. Paste a video link and click Fetch: you get 5 free fetches a day on a shared key (1 page of comments each). When you want more, add your own free YouTube Data API key in Settings (about 3 minutes) and the limits go away. WHAT IT'S GOOD FOR • Spot repeat questions, pain points and feature requests in your audience's comments • Flag spam, self-promotion, scam-like or off-platform contact patterns • Turn messy comment threads into a table you can filter by tag • Export to Notion, Excel, Google Sheets or your own research pipeline HOW IT WORKS 1. Open the extension and paste a video link (or open the video and click Parse Video ID) 2. Pick a ruleset and click Fetch 3. Filter comments by tag and see why each one matched 4. Export CSV / JSON / Markdown PRIVACY • Everything runs in your browser. Comments and results are never uploaded to any server. • Requests go directly from your browser to Google's YouTube Data API. • If you add your own API key, it is stored only in this browser. • Cached results expire after 24 hours, and you can clear them anytime. GOOD TO KNOW • Free shared key: 5 fetches per day, 1 page (up to 100 comments) each. With your own key: up to 50 pages per fetch. • Fetching depends on YouTube API quota. If a page fails mid-way, you still get the comments collected so far. • Prefer to look around first? "Try demo data" loads 20 sample comments without any network request.
