Use the `video.duration`, `video.views`, and `video.creator` metadata to filter and rank results programmatically. Prefer videos-search over web-search when you need a dedicated video index with richer metadata (duration, views, creator, tags) and up to 50 results per request. - **Fresh video monitoring**: Use `freshness=pd` or `freshness=pw` to track newly published video content on trending topics or specific subjects. - **Platform-specific search**: Use `site:youtube.com` or `site:vimeo.com` operators to target specific video platforms. - **Video metadata extraction**: Get view counts, durations, creator info, and tags for analytics, content curation, or recommendation systems. ## Notes - **Pagination**: Use `offset` (0-9) with `count` for more results - **Max results**: Up to 50 results per request
