Overview

Get performance data and transcripts from YouTube Shorts by searching keywords, hashtags, channels, or specific URLs. Ideal for competitor analysis, content strategy, and influencer vetting.

This tool is designed for marketers, content creators, and agencies who need to analyze the performance and content of YouTube Shorts at scale. Instead of manually checking individual videos, you can gather data in bulk to understand what's resonating with audiences. ### How to find the Shorts you need You can gather Shorts in four ways, mixing and matching as needed: * **Keyword Search:** Discover Shorts related to any topic, like "home cooking recipes" or "AI news". * **Channel URLs:** Extract all Shorts from specific competitor or influencer channels. * **Hashtag Search:** Track trends and campaigns by pulling Shorts that use certain hashtags, like #unboxing or #DIY. * **Direct URLs:** Analyze a specific list of Shorts you've already identified. ### Go beyond the basics with transcripts A key feature is the ability to extract full video transcripts for each Short. This allows for deeper qualitative analysis, such as identifying common phrases, analyzing sentiment, or understanding the structure of high-performing content without having to watch hundreds of videos. ### Data for strategic decisions The output provides the core metrics you need: view counts, like counts, and comment counts, alongside essential details like the publication date, video title, and channel information. Use this data to benchmark performance, spot viral trends, identify potential influencer partners, and refine your own short-form video strategy.
