How it works
The tool uses the official YouTube Data API's comment search, which matches top-level comments (not replies). Up to 300 matches are returned.
Frequently asked questions
Does it search replies too?
No — the API's search covers top-level comments only.
Why can't I find a comment I know exists?
It may be a reply, held for review, or deleted. Comments may also take a little time to become searchable.
