YouTube Comment Extractor
Pull up to 500 comments from any YouTube video — with likes, replies and dates — and export to CSV or JSON.
| Author | Comment | Likes | Replies | Date |

This YouTube Comment Extractor downloads the comments from any public video — up to 500 at a time — using the official YouTube Data API, so the text, like counts, reply counts, author names and dates all match what's live on YouTube. Choose the order (most relevant or newest first), then re-sort the results instantly by top likes, most replies or date without re-fetching. Each comment keeps its author avatar and channel link, so you can spot the influential voices fast. Export the whole set to CSV (for Excel, Sheets or Numbers) or JSON for developers, or copy it in one click. No signup, no paid plan, and you never need your own API key.
Frequently Asked Questions
How many comments can I extract?
Up to 500 comments per video in a single run — far more than the few dozen most free extractors return before asking you to pay or log in. You can set any limit from 1 to 500.
What information is included for each comment?
The comment text, the author's name and channel link, their avatar, the like count, the number of replies, and the publish date. Everything comes from the official YouTube Data API in real time, so the numbers are accurate.
Can I export the comments to a spreadsheet?
Yes. Download a CSV that opens cleanly in Excel, Google Sheets or Numbers, or export JSON for code. You can also copy the table to the clipboard. Every field is properly quoted so commas and line breaks inside comments don't break the file.
Can I sort the comments?
You can fetch them by relevance or newest-first, and then re-sort the results on the page by most-liked, most-replied, newest or oldest — instantly, with no extra request.
Do I need a YouTube API key or an account?
No. The tool uses our server-side API key, so you just paste a video URL — no Google Cloud project, no key setup, no signup.
Why can't it pull comments from some videos?
If comments are turned off for a video, there's nothing to extract and the tool will tell you. Private, deleted or age-restricted videos also can't be read. Replies are counted, while the top-level threads are what's exported.
Is my data private?
Yes. The video URL is used only to fetch the comments for your request and nothing is stored on our side. The extraction runs server-side and the results are returned straight to your browser.
