The official API needs a Google Cloud project and an API key. It caps search at 100 calls a day and meters other reads against a 10,000-unit daily budget. Anysite needs one access-token header and returns the comments as typed JSON. What does a call cost? The credits listed for the comments endpoint in the API reference. How many comments can I read from one video? As many as you ask for in one call, up to the per-call maximum listed for the comments endpoint in the API reference. Can I see who wrote each comment? Yes. Every comment comes back with its author, the text and its engagement counts in named fields. Ask your agent to group commenters by what they ask for. Can I also get the video’s views and channel? Yes. The video endpoint takes the same video ID or URL and returns its views and channel details. Every field is listed in the API reference. What does it cost? MCP plans start at $30 a month and reach only the MCP server. The API starts at $49 a month, billed in credits. The $30 MCP plan and API Starter come with a 7-day free trial. ## Read the comment section in one call [Start for free →](https://app.anysite.io/register?lang=en)
