Steps

At most, per call

YouTube video research looks for searches with demand and existing videos that leave questions unanswered. With Agentik, your AI reads YouTube’s search suggestions through TikHub, finds the most viewed videos and the YouTube search trend with DataForSEO, and reads viewers’ top comments through ScrapeCreators.

Step 1: Read YouTube suggestions
TikHub returns YouTube’s own search suggestions for your topic and four variants.

Each provider does one part

No single provider covers this job. Your agent calls each one for its part, from one connection.

Good to know

Suggestions and trends show demand, not how hard a topic is to rank; existing view counts give that side.
Comments are read in the order YouTube ranks them.

When to use something else

For channel analytics and A/B tests of thumbnails, use YouTube Studio. This playbook finds what to make next from public demand.

Questions

Does it read my channel’s analytics?

No. It works from public demand and public videos, so it helps before you film.

Why read comments?

Viewers ask there what the video didn’t answer, which is often your next video.

What does the example cost?

At most $0.25, reserved before each call and settled at the measured usage.
