Frequently asked questions

How long does it take to process a complete channel?

Processing time depends on the channel size. Smaller channels (under 100 videos) typically process within 10-15 minutes. Larger channels may take 30-60 minutes. Our system processes videos in parallel, so it's much faster than downloading individually.

Can I download comments from channels with thousands of videos?

Yes, our system can handle channels of any size. For very large channels, you may want to consider limiting by video count to focus on the most recent or relevant content. We'll show you the estimated credits and processing time before you confirm.

What happens with private or unlisted videos?

Only public videos are included in channel downloads. Private, unlisted, or deleted videos are automatically skipped. Our system will show you exactly how many public videos were found and will be processed.

How are the comments organized in the export file?

Each comment includes the video title, URL, upload date, and channel information. Comments are chronologically ordered within each video, and videos are sorted by upload date (newest first). This makes it easy to analyze trends over time or filter by specific videos.

Can I use AI analysis on channel downloads?

Absolutely! AI sentiment analysis and theme detection work perfectly with channel downloads. This gives you powerful insights into how audience sentiment and discussion topics have evolved across your channel's entire history.

Problem and solution

The challenge of channel analysis

Individual video analysis only tells part of the story. To truly understand a YouTube channel's audience, you need to see the complete picture across all videos, over time. This means analyzing hundreds or thousands of comment sections manually - a task that's practically impossible for active channels.

Traditional approaches force you to choose between depth and breadth. You can either analyze a few videos thoroughly or skim surface-level metrics across many videos. Neither approach gives you the comprehensive audience insights that drive successful channel strategies.

Channel-wide dataset

With a single channel URL, the tool discovers public videos and extracts comments into one dataset that spans the channel's history. You get both depth and breadth in one export.

This view helps you track audience changes, see which topics get the most discussion, and compare engagement over time.
