Frequently Asked Questions
What data points are compared?
We compare public data including Subscriber Count (if not hidden), Total Video Views, Total Public Video Count, Channel Age (calculated from creation date), and associated Country. We also display the channel name, thumbnail, and description.
How accurate is the data?
The data is fetched directly from the official YouTube Data API in real-time, providing the most up-to-date public statistics available. Note that subscriber counts provided by the API are often rounded for larger channels.
Can I compare channels with hidden subscriber counts?
Yes, you can still compare other metrics like views, video count, and age. The tool will indicate "Hidden" for the subscriber count, and that specific metric won't be highlighted as winning or losing.
What types of channel identifiers work?
You can use the full channel URL (e.g., `https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC...`, `https://www.youtube.com/@handle`, `https://www.youtube.com/c/name`), the Channel ID itself (`UC...`), the @handle (`@handle`), or even a URL to any video uploaded by the channel.
Is there a limit to how often I can use this?
Currently, the tool is free to use. However, it relies on the YouTube Data API, which has usage quotas. Excessive use might be rate-limited.
