YouTube tags are keywords creators add during upload to help YouTube understand what a video is about. They are not visible on the watch page but are returned by the Data API to anyone with an API key. Tags influence search matching, especially for misspellings, abbreviations, and topic clusters.
Tags matter less than titles and descriptions for SEO, but they still help with edge-case searches and closing the gap between what you say in a video and what someone types into the search bar. Extracting a competitor's tags is a fast way to reverse-engineer their keyword strategy without guessing.
