About the YouTube Channel contact API

The AnyAPI YouTube Channel contact API returns YouTube channel contact data as normalized JSON from one POST call to /v1/run/youtube.channel_contact. Reveal the business inquiry email a YouTube creator publishes behind the channel's View email address button. YouTube gates that address behind a signed-in Google session and a CAPTCHA, so it is absent from the channel page a logged-out scraper reads. AnyAPI routes each request across 2 sources and falls back automatically when one fails. It costs from $71.80 per 1,000 requests, in US dollars with no subscription and no monthly minimum. Over the last 30 days, 92.8% of YouTube channel contact calls through AnyAPI succeeded, with a median response time of 17.8 seconds across 3,416 measured calls.

It costs from $71.80 per 1,000 requests, in US dollars with no subscription and no monthly minimum. You fund one USD wallet and each call draws it down. Some failed wallet-funded requests incur processing charges that we pass through at cost, with no markup; the error response shows the amount charged.
