Frequently Asked Questions
Can I pull full comment threads, not just top comments?
Yes. The comment tools return the main comment plus replies and timestamps, so you can see the full conversation instead of a trimmed sample.
Which platforms are covered?
TikTok, YouTube, Instagram, Facebook, and Reddit are all supported. Pick the platform-specific skill and pass the full post or video URL.
How do I judge which comments matter most?
Use likes on TikTok, YouTube, Instagram, and Facebook, and use upvotes on Reddit. The highest-engagement comments usually show the dominant audience reaction.
Can I use comments to build FAQs or research themes?
Yes. The comment stream is a strong source for repeated questions, objections, and confusion points, which makes it useful for FAQ writing and sentiment analysis.
