A Python-based desktop application that scans YouTube comment sections for spam and scam comments using 15 different filtering methods, then deletes or reports them in bulk. It works on your own channel or others' channels via the YouTube Data API.

Use cases

  • delete scam comments from my youtube channel
  • bulk remove spam comments on youtube videos
  • find and report spammer accounts commenting on my videos
  • scan youtube comments for bot spam
  • moderate youtube comment section automatically
  • purge scam comments across an entire channel

When to choose

  • you manage a YouTube channel plagued by scam/spam comments and want bulk cleanup
  • you want multiple configurable detection methods including regex and ASCII heuristics
  • you need cross-platform support with prebuilt executables and Docker

When to avoid

  • you need real-time comment moderation as comments arrive
  • you don't have a YouTube API key or can't set one up
  • you need to moderate platforms other than YouTube
