Repeatable workflows for importing YouTube analytics, subtitles, chat logs, public media, and other source data.
Build a Reliable Starting Point
Useful data is often spread across platform exports, APIs, subtitle files, chat logs, spreadsheets, and public websites. Before that information can support a report or analysis, it needs to be collected, standardized, checked, and organized.
Sun Data Analytics, LLC builds repeatable workflows that move information from its original source into cleaner, analysis-ready tables.
These workflows can support a one-time project or become part of a reporting system that is refreshed on a recurring schedule.
Note
A collection workflow can stand on its own or connect directly to an automated report, dashboard, classification system, or mixed-methods analysis.
Primary Data Workflows
Different sources require different collection methods, but the goal is consistent: create dependable data that can be refreshed, inspected, and connected to later analysis. These are examples of repeatable import and preparation workflows, not separate one-off services.
Creator analytics
YouTube and Creator Platform Data
YouTube data can describe both the content a creator publishes and how that content performs over time. Sun Data Analytics can organize data from platform exports, authenticated analytics sources, public APIs, and existing creator records.
This makes it possible to connect platform performance with the subjects, interactions, and audience responses found inside the content itself.

Media monitoring
Public Web and Media Monitoring
Source-specific public collection can support research, trend monitoring, and media analysis where collection is technically and ethically appropriate.
Examples include: articles, publication dates, authors, publishers, topics, named entities.

Surveys, Research Text, and Internal Files
Not every project begins with an API. Many begin with spreadsheets, survey exports, transcripts, manually maintained records, or files created by several different people.
Examples include: survey cleanup, transcripts, field definitions, duplicate checks, date cleanup, reshaping.
