The Problem
YouTube influencer research relies on either the restrictive official API (quota limits, approval process) or scraping that breaks every 2-3 months when YouTube changes page structure.

- Video metadata: title, views, channel, publish date
- No YouTube API quota management or OAuth flow complexity
