YouTube comments downloader

Pull the comments off any public video and take them with you as CSV — author, text, likes and replies, sorted the way you want to read them.

Up to 500 comments per run, exported as CSV. Free, no account needed.

What the comments are good for

  • Content ideas that are already asked for. The repeated question under a popular video is a video.
  • Objections before you launch. Comments under a competitor's video tell you what people distrust about the thing you are about to make.
  • Language you did not invent. The words viewers use are the words that belong in your title.
  • A record you own. Comments get edited and deleted; a CSV does not.

Sorting by likes versus date

Most liked shows you consensus — the reactions enough people agreed with to vote up. Newest shows you drift: what viewers are saying now that the video has aged, which is usually where complaints and fresh questions surface.

Reading a big export

Beyond a few hundred rows, skimming stops working. Group by recurring phrase, count how often each appears, and read the top clusters — that is what the analysis in the dashboard automates.

Questions

How do I download YouTube comments?

Paste the video URL above and run it. You get the comments in a list you can read on the page, and a CSV containing author, comment text, likes, reply count and published date.

How many comments can I export?

Up to 500 per run. That covers the overwhelming majority of videos; on a viral upload it gives you the most visible slice rather than the whole archive.

What is in the CSV?

One row per comment: author, the comment text, likes, number of replies, and when it was published. It opens directly in Sheets, Excel or a notebook.

Can I export comments from someone else’s video?

Yes — public comments on any public video. Nothing here needs channel access, because it reads what any viewer can already see.

Why did a video return nothing?

Comments are either turned off for that video, or it genuinely has none yet. Both come back as an empty result rather than an error.

Is it free?

Yes, with no account and no limit on exports. Each run pulls up to 500 comments.
