Show HN: VideoMentions – Search YouTube based on the spoken words in videos
Hey HN! I just launched VideoMentions Search, a free tool that allows you to search YouTube to find videos that contain specific spoken words.<p>Here's how to quickly try it out -<p>Let's say you want to find every video on The Verge's YouTube channel within the last several months in which "MacBook Pro" is mentioned. Here's a pre-populated search to accomplish that:<p><a href="https://videomentions.com/search?channelUrl=https%253A%252F%252Fwww.youtube.com%252Fc%252FTheVerge&keywords=MacBook%2520Pro&dateRange=3" rel="nofollow">https://videomentions.com/search?channelUrl=https%253A%252F%...</a><p>If you follow that ^ link, then click the button to perform the search, you'll see all matching videos, with every single mention of "MacBook Pro" highlighted.<p>My favorite part is that all the highlighted matches are timestamped. So you can click on any of them to jump to that exact moment in the video when that keyword was said!<p>VideoMentions Search is great for these scenarios:<p>- You want to find all videos within a YouTube channel that mention your brand, your product, or the topics you care about.<p>- You remember watching a video where a certain topic was discussed, and now you're trying to remember which video it was to rewatch it.<p>- You run your own YouTube channel and want to quickly find the exact moments in your videos where you cover certain topics, so you can link others to that content.<p>I have wanted a way to search YouTube based on spoken words for a while. I couldn't find a tool that provides that capability though, so I built it!<p>I hope you find VideoMentions Search useful! I'd love to hear any feedback you have on it. Please let me know!
