Fast, easy-to-use scraper that retrieves most video details, but it suffers from downtime, incomplete or mixed results, inconsistent transcripts, and wasted credits.

When I did it manually I got 465 results. So i cant say its that good” — 4/5 |

| What it costs | 0 praised · 1 complained | 1 | wastes credits without usable results“I was ecpecting to scrape Channels - because it says "extract and download channel name, ...", but instead I got Videos. I needed only channels that have at least one video (most recent, logically) with my keyword. However, I got 5-6 results for the same channel. Which means I wasted the credits. Also, no contact email srcaped, although Apify ai chat recommended this scraper for me to get emails. So now I need a) to clean up the list b) to spend time looking for another scraper and pay for it to get what i need - emails names/links and emails to contact the channel owners. Besides, I feel like a some of the scraped data was not needed, but not sure that I could turn it off when launching the task. The team can feel free to reach out to me if they want to chat about the agent improvements.” — 3/5 |
