Pornhub Video Data Downloader

🎬 Turn Pornhub targets into video data

Pornhub Downloader helps researchers, content teams, and developers collect public Pornhub video data without copying pages by hand. Each accepted row can include the source view key, title, description, duration, upload date, thumbnail, engagement, taxonomy, channel details, discovery context, and source-visible media links. This gives you structured data for content review, cataloging, moderation research, media work, or an API workflow.

• Search public Pornhub listings by a topic with Pornhub Video Search.
• Read title, duration, engagement, and source links for one public video with Pornhub Video Metadata.
• Turn public video pages into structured metadata with Pornhub Metadata Scraper.
• Collect public video rows for a catalog with Pornhub Video Scraper.
• Get source-visible media links from a public video page with Pornhub Video Downloader.

📦 Pornhub video rows at a glance

Each saved row represents one accepted public video. A direct video URL asks for that exact video and leaves discovery empty. A listing URL or search term adds the first saved match's query, listing URL, and rank when available. If the same source video appears again from another target, the Actor keeps the first eligible row and does not merge later matches into it.

Public source data

The Actor keeps values that Pornhub shows on the page. Missing descriptions, counts, taxonomy, channel facts, thumbnails, media links, or discovery details stay empty instead of being guessed. The Actor handles public pages only. It does not use a Pornhub account, cookies, Premium access, private content, or a browser extension.

▶️ Run exact videos or discover matching pages

1. Add one direct video URL, listing URL, or search term per row in Pornhub targets.
2. Use a direct video URL when you know the exact video. Use a listing URL or search term for discovery.
3. Set Maximum discovery videos to limit videos found by listing URLs and search terms. Leave it empty to return all available results until the source is exhausted.
4. Choose the production and duration filters for discovery targets. Direct video URLs ignore these filters.
5. Start the Actor and open the default dataset.

⚙️ Input

Input fields

Field	Type	What it does

minDuration	string	For discovery, keeps videos at or above the selected length. Choose none, 10, 20, or 30 minutes. The default is none. Direct video URLs ignore this filter.

💳 Pricing

Charged event

This Actor uses pay-per-event pricing. The Scraped video event costs $0.00445 for one accepted public video saved with its available metadata and source-visible media links.

Control discovery work

Use Maximum discovery videos for a smaller test or to limit discovery work. Leave it empty to return all available results until the source is exhausted. A target that produces no accepted video does not create this video event.

🔌 Integrations

❓ FAQ

What happens when I give a direct regional video URL?

Direct video URLs, including regional Pornhub hostnames, are treated as exact targets. The Actor returns that video only when it is available. It does not turn an unavailable direct URL into search results, and a direct row has empty discovery context.

Can I mix direct URLs, listing URLs, and search terms?

Yes. Add each target as a separate row. Direct URLs request one exact video. Listing URLs and search terms discover matching public videos.

How does the discovery limit work?

maxItems limits videos found by listing URLs and search terms. Leave it empty to return all available results until the source is exhausted. It does not limit direct video URLs.

What happens when the same video matches two targets?

The Actor saves the first eligible occurrence and ignores later matches of that source video. It does not merge later submitted targets or discovery matches into the saved row. Its discovery context describes only the first saved match.

Which fields can be empty?

Pornhub may not show every value on every page. Descriptions, engagement values, taxonomy values, channel facts, thumbnails, media links, and discovery details can be empty when unavailable.

Does this Actor save video files?

No. It returns public video metadata and source-visible HLS media links. It does not copy video files into Apify storage or create ZIP archives.

Does it need a login, cookies, or a source API key?

No. It reads public pages and does not use a Pornhub account, cookies, Premium access, a browser extension, or a source API key.

How can I use the saved data in another app?

Read the dataset through the Apify API or export it in a format supported by your workflow.
