YouTube monitoring

New reviews of your product, the day they go up.

Reviews, “X vs Y” comparisons and tutorials on YouTube shape buying decisions for years. BuzzGlean searches YouTube for your keywords and alerts you on the new videos that match what you describe.

YouTube search shows the most popular videos, not the newest ones about you.

A new review of your product can take weeks to surface in search or recommendations. By then the comments have settled and the creator has moved on.

  • Notifications only cover channels you follow

    The video that matters usually comes from a creator you've never heard of.

  • Titles hide intent

    “I tried 5 CRMs” and “CRM tutorial for beginners” both match “CRM”. Only one is a buyer review.

  • Reviews last

    Videos keep getting watched for years, so the first days are the best time to reply or reach out.

What BuzzGlean does on YouTube

  • Keyword search on new uploads

    Your keywords are searched on YouTube's newest uploads throughout the day.

  • AI reads title and description

    Each new video's title, description snippet, hashtags and channel are checked against your description, with a one-line reason for each match.

  • Alerts where you work

    Email, Slack or webhook, one at a time or in a digest.

  • One feed for every source

    YouTube matches sit next to your matches from every other platform, filterable by rule.
