Spots the reply pretending to be you

The classic YouTube scam is a reply wearing the creator's name and photo, sending viewers to WhatsApp. A display name proves nothing — copying it is the entire trick.

  • Every reply is checked against the channel's real ID, not its name
  • Look-alike tricks like Stud1o N1ne for Studio Nine are caught too
  • The genuine creator is marked; the copycat is flagged

FAQ

Before you start

How do I search all the comments on a YouTube channel?
Paste the channel URL or @handle and ClearComments loads every public comment and reply into your browser, then searches them locally as you type. YouTube itself only searches the comments already rendered on screen, which is why a term buried five pages deep never appears. Loading the whole set first is what makes the search complete.
How do I export YouTube comments to Excel or CSV?
Load a video or channel, apply any filters you want, then open Export. CSV arrives UTF-8 with a byte-order mark so Excel on Windows shows accents and emoji correctly, Excel is a real .xlsx workbook with likes as sortable numbers, and JSON keeps full metadata with parent IDs for rebuilding reply threads. Exports follow whatever is on screen, so filtering first exports less.
What moderation metrics can I get from YouTube comments?
Comment and reply volume over time at hour, day, week or month granularity; unique authors and comments per author; total and average likes; the most frequent words; the most active commenters; questions your audience asked; and a flagged count broken down by spam, scam, insult, criticism and channel impersonation. All of it is computed in your browser from the comments already loaded, so it costs no extra API quota.
How do I find accounts impersonating my YouTube channel?
Every reply is checked against the channel’s real channel ID rather than its display name, because copying a name and photo is the entire trick behind the scam that sends viewers to WhatsApp. Look-alike substitutions such as a zero for an "o" are folded before comparison, so "Stud1o N1ne" is matched against "Studio Nine". The genuine owner is marked and the copy is flagged.
What does it cost?
Nothing. Every dashboard, moderation tool and export format is available without an account, trial or payment. Nothing is installed and nothing is uploaded.
Do I need an API key or a Google account?
No. There is nothing to set up — paste a link and it works. ClearComments runs on its own YouTube API key, which means it also runs on a single shared daily allowance. On a busy day that allowance can run out, and the app will say so plainly and ask you to come back after it resets at midnight Pacific time.
Do you see what I search for?
No analytics reads your searches or comments. Requests pass through a restricted proxy so the YouTube credential stays private; the proxy does not cache or store channel IDs, searches or comments, and the browser keeps results in memory only until you close the page.
Which comments can it see?
Public comments on public videos — the same ones any visitor can read. Comments YouTube has already held for review or marked as likely spam are visible only to the channel owner through an authorised login, so no public tool can show them.
Does it include replies?
Yes. Replies appear nested under their parent and are included in exports with a parent ID, so you can rebuild the threads. Very long threads load the remainder only when you open them, rather than fetching every thread up front.
