Utilizing pre-existing software artifacts, such as libraries and Application Programming Interfaces (APIs), is crucial for software development efficiency. However, the abundance of artifacts that provide similar functionality can lead to confusion among developers, resulting in a challenge for proper selection and implementation. Through our preliminary investigation, we found that utilizing the collective knowledge of a crowd can greatly assist developers in acquiring a thorough and complete understanding of the complexities involved in the software development process. Especially as emotions are an inseparable part of human nature, it influences developers' activities. In this regard, we attempt to build a tool that can retrieve sentiment information for software APIs so that developers can determine APIs to utilize for their tasks. We employ the dataset from the most popular platforms (i.e., Twitter and YouTube) to build our research prototype. The source code, tool, and demo video are available on GitHub at \url{https://github.com/FalconLK/APISens}.
