To export YouTube comments, paste the video URL below, let the comments load, then open the Export menu and choose CSV. The file downloads straight to your computer and opens in Excel, Google Sheets, or Numbers.
Whatever you have filtered to on screen is what lands in the file - search for a keyword or pick one author first, and the export follows. No signup, no email capture, no waiting for a download link.
Free export, no account and no email required.
Paste the video link
A watch URL, a youtu.be link, a Shorts link, or a livestream replay - anything public with comments enabled.
Wait for the comments to load
Hadzy pulls the full comment thread from the official YouTube Data API. Large videos take a minute or two on the first visit and are instant afterwards.
Filter down to what you actually need (optional)
Search for a keyword, pick a single author, or sort by likes. The export uses exactly the view you are looking at, so you can export the 40 comments mentioning your product name instead of all 40,000.
Open Export and choose CSV
The file streams straight to your downloads as hadzy-comments-VIDEOID.csv. Double-click to open it in Excel, Google Sheets, or Numbers - no conversion step, no email, no waiting for a link.
One row per comment, and one row per reply. Twelve columns:
commentIdparentIdauthorauthorChannelUrltextlikeCountreplyCountpublishedAtupdatedAthasQuestionhasTimestampwordCountThe file is UTF-8 with a byte-order mark so Excel renders emoji and non-Latin scripts correctly, and comment text is stripped of YouTube’s HTML markup before it is written.
Most comment exporters put CSV behind a paywall, a trial, or an email form. Hadzy does not: the Export button works on your first visit, with no account. What it does have is a row cap.
Paste the video URL into Hadzy, wait for the comments to load, then open the Export menu and pick CSV. The file downloads to your computer and opens directly in Excel, Google Sheets, or Numbers. It is written as UTF-8 with a byte-order mark, so accented characters and emoji survive the trip into Excel instead of turning into mojibake.
Yes. Any public video with comments enabled can be exported, whether or not it is your channel. Nothing is exported for private or unlisted videos, or for videos with comments turned off, because that data is not public.
commentId, parentId, author, authorChannelUrl, text, likeCount, replyCount, publishedAt, updatedAt, hasQuestion, hasTimestamp and wordCount. Replies are included as their own rows, with parentId pointing at the comment they answer.
This one. Hadzy exports without an account, an email address, or a trial: paste a URL, click Export, get a CSV. The free export covers the first 250 rows of whatever you have filtered to. Core Supporters ($5/month on Patreon) export every comment of any video, up to 500,000 rows per file, and can also export JSON.
JSON export is a Core Supporter feature. It returns the same fields as the CSV as an array of objects, which is easier to feed into a script, a notebook, or another tool without parsing a spreadsheet first.
Yes - that is the point of exporting from the view rather than the video. Your keyword search, author filter, and sort order are applied to the file, so the rows come out in the order you see them on screen. Filtering the export by date range, or to comments of at least a given length, is a supporter feature.
