API guide

YouTube data for your agent

Through one apifare key, your agent can run 161 ready-to-run YouTube tools today: transcripts, videos, and channels.

Get a key

Ask your agent

• Get the transcript of this YouTube video: <url>
• Find recent YouTube videos about <topic> and list their titles and channels

Your agent finds the right tool itself with apifare's search, then calls it through your key, under your caps and kill switch.

On the key today

• YouTube Scraper
• YouTube Shorts Scraper
• Traffic Generator (Youtube, Web, Etsy, Behance and many more!)
• Youtube Transcript Scraper
• YouTube Comments Scraper

Browse everything in the tool catalog; each tool's page shows how it is priced.

Set it up

Connect your agent (Claude Code · Cursor · Codex · all supported clients), then ask.

Calling a model's API directly instead? Give it apifare tools with a plain tool loop: DeepSeek · Kimi · Qwen · OpenAI GPT · Gemini.
