What you get

A calm, documented review

No dashboards you have to learn. One PDF, plain English, with numbers you can verify in YouTube Studio.

  1. 01

    Retention & catalog check

    Where viewers drop off, which videos hold, which formats are worth repeating.

  2. 02

    Revenue context

    RPM by geography and format, explained — not just a single number.

  3. 03

    Brand fit, if any

    If your audience matches an active brief, we forward the details. You decide. No obligation.

  4. 04

    Policy hygiene

    Common demonetization and reused-content flags, with links to official YouTube docs.

How it works

Three short steps

  1. 01

    Connect your channel

    Click “Continue with Google” and choose the Google account that owns the channel. You’ll see exactly what permissions are requested before approving.

  2. 02

    We review

    An analyst looks at aggregate analytics — no DMs to your subscribers, no changes to your content. Usually within 1–2 business days.

  3. 03

    You get a summary

    PDF by email: findings + next steps. If there’s a relevant brand brief, it’s attached separately. Reply only if interested.

FAQ

Questions we hear often

Why do you need the channel owner account?

Full analytics (revenue, retention by video) is only available to the owner role in YouTube Studio. Editor access returns partial data, so the review would be inaccurate.

Can you take over my channel?

No. Connection uses Google’s OAuth screen with read-only analytics scopes. Ownership transfer is a separate, manual process in YouTube settings that we never request. You can revoke access anytime in your Google Account.

Do you store my password?

No. Sign-in happens on Google’s side. We never see or ask for your password or 2-step codes — please never send those by email or chat to anyone, including us.

What does it cost?

The review is free. If you later accept a brand brief through us, our fee is a percentage of that brief only, agreed in writing beforehand. No retainers, no lock-in.

How do payouts work?

Brand payments go via standard rails (bank / Stripe / PayPal / Wise) with invoice and contract. Timelines depend on the brand, typically net-15 to net-30.

I’m under 10K subscribers. Is this for me?

Probably not yet — brand fit is rare at that size. You’re welcome to connect, but we’ll likely suggest focusing on cadence and retention first.
