About Youtube Comments Scraper (Fast and cheap) 💬 - Rental
Need to pull YouTube comments for a project? I've used this scraper for sentiment analysis and lead gen, and it just works. You paste in the video URLs, tell it how many comments you need, and it fetches everything into a clean JSON file. You get the full comment text, how many likes each one has, and info about the person who posted it. It's honestly the fastest and most affordable option I've found for getting this data without hitting API limits. I typically use the output for things like analyzing audience reactions, tracking mentions of a product, or finding potential customers in niche communities. The setup is straightforward, and because it runs as a rental, you only pay for what you use. If you're tired of manual copying or dealing with complex scripts, this feels like having a buddy who's really good at data collection—it just hands you the structured data so you can focus on the actual analysis.
