The Problem
YouTube creators cannot programmatically track search position for specific queries. YouTube Studio shows aggregate impressions but not per-query positioning. Without tracking, creators discover visibility drops weeks after they occur.
How Scavio Helps
- Daily position tracking for any YouTube keyword
- Automated alerts for position drops
- Historical data reveals decay patterns and optimal refresh timing
- Identifies videos needing title/description updates
- Low cost ($0.005/keyword check)

Quick Start: Python Example
Here is a quick example searching YouTube for "Creator tracks 30 keywords daily. System detects 'search api tutorial' dropped from position 2 to position 7 over 5 days. Alert fires. Creator updates title and description with 2026 keywords. Position recovers to 3 within 10 days.":
import requests
API_KEY = "your_scavio_api_key"
response = requests.post(
"https://api.scavio.dev/api/v1/youtube/search",
headers={
"x-api-key": API_KEY,
"Content-Type": "application/json",
},
json={"query": query},
)
data = response.json()
for video in data.get("videos", [])[:5]:
print(f"{video['title']} — {video.get('views', 'N/A')} views")Built for YouTube creators, video marketing teams, agencies managing YouTube channels
