Hey @messe! I built VideoMentions Search with a combination of custom code and a couple NPM packages that are able to scrape publicly accessible YouTube pages to get the channel and videos data the app relies on.

So because it doesn't use the YouTube API at all, the total monthly cost is $0 :)

That's why I'm able to offer free, unrestricted access to the tool and allow folks to perform unlimited searches.

Thanks for checking out my project! I hope you find it useful!
