03 / DELIVERY

Choose the data you need

Tell us your topics, date range and required fields. Where the source permits, we’ll provide a sample first, then agree on filtering, cleanup and annotation.

Typical delivery formats are Excel, CSV, JSON and JSONL. The quote will state whether original documents or media are included. Let us know if you need recurring updates.

Assess the fit for your project

A YouTube project can combine video metadata, public channel details, available subtitles, comments, and engagement figures to study how a topic appears across languages or markets. Subtitle and video-file availability should both be checked in a sample.

What should be confirmed for multilingual video research?

State target languages, channels or topics, dates, and whether subtitles are essential. Inspect available subtitles and comment languages in a sample; do not treat automatic or absent text as equivalent material.

Can video metadata replace video content?

Not fully. Titles, descriptions, public channel details, subtitles, and comments answer different questions. If research depends on images or audio itself, state the media need separately rather than assuming video files are delivered by default.

Sources and usage

This covers video metadata and available subtitles. Any video-file delivery is checked separately.

If you plan to train a model, use the data in a customer-facing product or share it with third parties, mention this when requesting a quote so we can check source permissions and restrictions.

Public access does not establish permission for collection, training or redistribution. Naming a platform does not imply affiliation, agency or endorsement.
