Research YouTube videos by topic. Get video metadata, transcripts, view counts, and channel info. Build content analysis tools and video recommendation engines.

How Scavio Helps

  • Search YouTube with 15+ filters
  • Full video transcripts in multiple languages
  • Video metadata: views, likes, duration, tags
  • Channel information and subscriber data

Quick Start: Python Example

Here is a quick example searching YouTube for "react server components tutorial":

Python

API_KEY = "your_scavio_api_key"

response = requests.post(
    "https://api.scavio.dev/api/v1/youtube/search",
    headers={
        "x-api-key": API_KEY,
        "Content-Type": "application/json",
    },
    json={"query": query},
)

for video in data.get("videos", [])[:5]:
    print(f"{video['title']} — {video.get('views', 'N/A')} views")
