Purpose
AudienceCue is used to turn public YouTube comments into cited audience insight reports, helping content creators, teams, or clients understand the real voice of the audience, including what content works, what objections the audience has, and what should be done next. Its core feature is that every claim in the report is tied to a real public comment as evidence.
Main Capabilities
- Comment scraping: supports pasting a public YouTube video or Shorts link, and only scrapes public comments, without involving private content.
- Real-time scraping progress: the scraping process shows real-time progress and the real-time comment count.
- Cited reports: every conclusion in the generated AI report links to its source comment.
- Comment preview and download: comments can be previewed, and a CSV file can be downloaded.
- Multi-format export: supports comment files in CSV, JSON, TXT, and XLSX formats, which can be used for auditing, archiving, or subsequent analysis.
- Structured audience reports: turns comment reality into audience signals, key judgments, recommended actions, and risk flags.
- Report sharing and download: clients, teammates, and sponsors can view it through a read-only report link, and it can also be downloaded as HTML for delivery or archiving; supports Markdown/JSON report export and read-only links.
- Scope-of-statistics explanation: statistics cover all collected rows; the AI narrative uses a representative sample. Public replies are included when available.
- Public API access: the official text mentions public API access, but no specific interface details are provided.
- Sample report viewing: before consuming credits, you can view 5 public report samples to check the report structure, real comment evidence, and action guidance.
