Comments Exporter & Downloader for Youtube Firefox

Comments Exporter & Downloader for Youtube

One-click bulk scrape Youtube video comments & replies, extract and export to Excel/CSV/JSON for market research & AI analysis.

Features & Capabilities

🔥 YouTube Comment Exporter & Downloader — bulk scrape, extract and download comments plus every nested reply from any YouTube video or Shorts in just a few clicks. This YouTube comment scraper saves everything locally in real time and exports comments to Excel (XLSX) / CSV / JSON in one click. Batch-add video links, run or pause the whole queue, resume from break-point, and merge multiple videos into a single file — the all-in-one YouTube comment extractor for comment analysis, audience-feedback review, brand social listening, sentiment analysis and AI-powered comment summaries.

【KEY FEATURES】

✦ Bulk Comment Scraper for Videos & Shorts Add many YouTube video links (youtube.com/watch) or Shorts links (youtube.com/shorts) at once, one per line, with duplicates removed automatically. The extension loads and extracts comments page by page, so no scraper scripting or manual paging is needed — comment collection gets far more efficient.

✦ One-Click Comment Download from Any YouTube Page An "Export Comments" button appears on every YouTube video page and on Shorts. Click it and the current video is added to your task queue, the options page opens, and scraping starts automatically — no copy-pasting links. Whenever you spot a video worth analyzing, saving its comments is one click away.

✦ Download Comments + Every Reply Tick "Include Comment Replies" and the extension scrapes not only all top-level comments, but also expands every nested reply thread under each comment. The ParentID field preserves the full link between each reply and its parent comment, so you always know who replied to whom.

✦ Rich Comment Fields Export complete comment data: Comment ID, Content, a direct comment URL (click to jump straight to that comment), Author name, Author channel/profile URL, Author avatar, Comment publish time, Export time, Like count, Reply count, Parent Comment ID and Video ID — everything you need for comment analysis in one place.

✦ Export Comments to Excel / CSV / JSON Every comment set can be exported as XLSX (Excel), CSV or JSON, and multiple videos can be ticked and merged into one combined file — ready for pivot tables, translation, word-frequency analysis or AI comment summaries. CSV files include a UTF-8 BOM (so Chinese text renders correctly in Excel) plus built-in spreadsheet formula-injection protection — safe and hassle-free.

✦ Resume From Break-Point Every comment is saved locally the moment it arrives. Pause freely, close the page, even close the browser — nothing already downloaded is lost. Reopen the options page, click "Run All" again, and completed sections are skipped automatically while it continues from where it stopped. No duplicate work.

✦ Full Queue Control Run all / pause all, run / pause / export / delete individual tasks, or delete in bulk. Live fetched counts, total comment counts and status (waiting / running / paused / completed) are shown per video, and errors display the specific reason (e.g. not signed in, invalid URL, page not fully loaded). Your whole pipeline is visible at a glance.

✦ Configurable Maximum Comments Set a maximum number of comments to scrape per link (leave empty or 0 for unlimited), avoiding over-fetching when you only need a sample. Exports are also trimmed according to the setting.

✦ Local-First Privacy All comment data is read through YouTube pages in your own browser and stored locally — nothing is uploaded to any server, and you can clear it anytime. Your data is yours alone.

【USE CASES】 • Content creators: organize viewer feedback, discover content ideas, and track the questions fans care about most • Market research & social listening: brand-reputation and competitor-sentiment monitoring, trending-topic and trend insights • Data analysts: download structured comment data for sentiment analysis, word clouds, word-frequency stats and AI comment summaries • Marketing & operations: mine comment sections for user pain points, highly engaged audience profiles and potential customer leads • MCNs & creator research: compare comment data across multiple viral videos to analyze what makes content take off • Academic / public-opinion research: collect publicly accessible YouTube comments as a research corpus

【NOTES】

⚠ Warning: scraping comments at high frequency can easily get you restricted by YouTube. Please use the extension responsibly and comply with YouTube's terms. The extension paces requests automatically. Whether a limit is triggered depends on YouTube's holistic judgment of factors such as account standing, logged-in session duration, browser and device environment, and operation frequency — there is no universal safe number. When in doubt, start with small batches and ramp up gradually day by day once things run smoothly.

YouTube updates its pages from time to time, which in rare cases may temporarily affect scraping. If comments fail to load or exports look off, try: ① updating the extension to the latest version; ② refreshing the YouTube page and signing in again. If the issue persists, email us via the in-extension button with the video link and a page screenshot — we follow up and ship fixes quickly.

We iterate continuously and adapt quickly to YouTube's page changes. For issues or feature requests, reach us via the in-extension email button — including a video link or screenshot helps us fix things faster.
