How this service works
YouTube (yt) data and scraping API: Search videos, channels, and playlists; fetch video details, comments, shorts, live streams, and trending. 15 REST endpoints from $0.005 per call — no account, no OAuth, no subscription. Pay with x402 (USDC on Base, Polygon, Arbitrum, Monad or Solana) or prepaid credits.
Output
Returns structured metadata for the specified YouTube video including title, description, channel information, view/like/comment counts, duration, publish date, thumbnails, and tags — all without requiring OAuth or a YouTube API account.
Example use cases
Viral video stats dashboard
“I need the full metadata for YouTube video ID 9bZkp7q19f0 — get me the title, view count, like count, channel name, and publish date so I can add it to my content tracking spreadsheet.”
Podcast episode research tool

Technical details
Endpoint
GEThttps://youtube.fetcher.sh/api/video/%7Bid%7DWhen to prefer
Choose this endpoint when you need YouTube video details without setting up OAuth, managing API quotas, or subscribing to the official YouTube Data API. Ideal for agents that need occasional or pay-per-use access to video metadata, or when operating with USDC/crypto payment flows via x402. Best for single-video lookups by known ID.
Side effects
- Invalid or non-existent video ID returns an error or empty result
- Video removed or private on YouTube may return 404 or unavailable status
- Payment failure (insufficient USDC balance) returns HTTP 402
- Rate limits or scraping blocks from YouTube may cause transient failures
- Malformed video ID format may result in a bad request error
