Content analysis in Claude
Give the model the words, not the view count.
Engagement numbers tell you a post did well and nothing about why. The why is in the content itself — what was said in the video, and what people replied underneath. Both are text once they are fetched: transcripts turn video into something a model can read, and the comment endpoints return whole threads rather than the visible top few. With KonbiniAPI connected, Claude reads the substance instead of the scoreboard.
- 1A KonbiniAPI accountThe free plan includes 100 credits, which is enough to run this a few times.
- 2Claude connectedOAuth. Remote custom connectors are in beta; free accounts are limited to one.
- 3A real targetA public account, post, or keyword to run it against — the placeholders below are not live values.
Run it.
Once Claude is connected, send one of these. The agent decides which KonbiniAPI tools to call and returns the result in its answer — each successful call costs the same credits as the matching REST call.
