Find & export YouTube creator emails in bulk

TubeMailer is a Chrome extension that finds the business emails behind YouTube channels — in bulk. Search a niche, and it pulls emails from channel About pages, follows creators' linked sites when there's no email on YouTube, then exports clean lists to CSV, Excel, or JSON. No API keys. No per-contact fees. No metered "unlocks." It runs in your own browser, handles up to 1,000 emails/day, and starts for free. Built for agencies, sponsors, and marketers doing creator outreach.
The extension model over API model is a smart architectural choice for this use case. Most influencer platforms are effectively middleware between the browser and the browser, you're paying $300/month for someone else to run Chrome for you. Cutting out the middleman changes the economics entirely.
Been building cold outreach for DTC beauty brands solo, and the same math you're describing applies to my ICP. Manually sourcing 150 leads takes 8-10 hours and produces higher-quality data than what I get from paid databases. The tradeoff is time, but the leads convert 3-4x better because the sourcing process itself is a qualification filter.
Curious about the follow-linked-sites feature, how do you handle the case where the linked site's contact page is behind a form or captcha? That's usually where the paid tools get their edge, even if the value doesn't justify their price.

Ha — "paying $300/month for someone else to run Chrome for you" is the
whole thesis in one line. Stealing that.
And your manual-sourcing point is spot on: the sourcing process is itself
a qualification filter, and stale database records lose that signal. The
way I think about it, TubeMailer keeps some of it — it pulls the email a
creator actually published on their own channel/site right now, not a
record someone scraped 18 months ago. You still do the niche and targeting
judgment; it just removes the copy-paste-captcha grind on the emails
themselves.
On the linked-site question — honest answer: it doesn't try to beat forms
or captchas. It reads plainly published addresses (mailto links, emails in
the page text) and if the contact is gated behind a form/captcha, it skips
and moves on. Two reasons: chasing the gated ~10% is a fragile rabbit hole
that breaks constantly, and skipping keeps the data clean — I'd rather
return nothing than guess a pattern address that bounces. The bet is that
most business-minded creators still list a plain email somewhere, and the
tool wins on speed across that majority.
Funnily enough, DTC beauty is squarely in the ICP — those brands live on
creator outreach. If you ever want to point it at a beauty-creator list,
I'd genuinely love your feedback, since you've felt this exact pain.
@kunalukey The "return nothing rather than guess a pattern address" call is the right one. I've watched other tools try to be clever with pattern-matching (info@, sales@, first.last@) and the bounce rate destroys sender reputation faster than the extra emails are worth. Skipping is a feature.
On the DTC beauty ICP, I'd genuinely take you up on that later. Currently running my own cold outreach at 161 hand-sourced brands (in the middle of the launch prep now), but once I'm through this cycle I'll have a clearer view of where TubeMailer would fit into the workflow. Would be curious to compare what your tool finds vs. what my manual sourcing produces on overlapping brand-adjacent creators.
Rooting for the launch. The extension model gets underestimated in a space where SaaS pricing is the norm.
@elias_motionfy Appreciate this, and yeah, exactly. The whole value of the tool is protecting the user's sender reputation, so shipping a guessed info@ that bounces would be working against the one thing that matters. Skipping isn't a gap in coverage, it's the tool refusing to hand you a liability. Glad that reasoning lands with someone who's actually feeling the bounce-rate pain firsthand.
161 hand-sourced brands is no joke — respect the grind, and good luck with the launch prep. That's the deep end.
The comparison is exactly the kind of thing I'd love to run when you're through your cycle. No rush at all — but whenever you've got a set of overlapping brand-adjacent creators, point me at the niche, and I'll run TubeMailer against it so we can see where it overlaps your manual sourcing, where it misses, and where it surfaces people you hadn't found. Honestly, the misses are as useful to me as the hits — that's the feedback that makes the tool better. Manual sourcing is the right benchmark to measure against.
And thanks for the note on the extension model — that was a deliberate bet. Felt like this problem didn't need to be a $99/mo SaaS with a dashboard nobody opens. Rooting for your launch too — keep me posted on how it goes.
Love that everything runs locally in the browser instead of another SaaS with usage credits. Nice touch. Wishing you a great launch! 🚀
@sonali_nayak2 Thanks!
