Hello DEV 👋 We're Cliqto Media, and we build web data tools

Hi DEV community!

We're Cliqto Media, a small independent digital media company. Since 2020 we've been building our own tools and brands. Most of them are for people who work with data and automation, so this is where we'll share the technical side of our work.

What we build

Apify Actors. 150+ ready-made web scrapers and data APIs that run in the Apify cloud. They collect public data such as app reviews, job listings, YouTube transcripts, company contacts and search suggestions, and return clean JSON you can pull from code. Our Actors on Apify

Browser extensions. Small tools that run in your own browser, with no servers and no sign-up. The first one, Bulk Post Scheduler for X, schedules many X posts from a CSV or Excel file.

Voxlo Studio. Our brand of original 3D-printable designs: voxlostudio.com.

A quick taste: YouTube transcripts from Python

Every Actor can be called from code with the official Apify client (pip install apify-client). This one returns public YouTube captions as plain text and as timed segments:

from apify_client import ApifyClient

client = ApifyClient("YOUR_APIFY_TOKEN")

run = client.actor("cliqtomedia/youtube-transcript-scraper").call(
    run_input={"videoUrls": ["jNQXAC9IVRw"], "preferredLanguages": ["en"]}
)

for item in client.dataset(run["defaultDatasetId"]).iterate_items():
    print(item["videoId"], item["status"])
    print((item.get("text") or "")[:300])

One video costs about six cents at the current price (USD 0.053 per run start plus USD 0.008 per transcript). Details are on the Actor page.
