YTScanner

Check any channel or video for the monetization signals YouTube shows in public: channel memberships, ad placements and mid-roll breaks across recent uploads, each with what it does and doesn’t prove.

Compare two or three YouTube channels on videos from the same window, old enough to have collected their views. See median views per upload, how much rests on one top video, upload gaps and subscriber ranges, straight from the YouTube Data API.

Download any YouTube thumbnail in every size that exists, then check your own design at feed, sidebar, Shorts, podcast and vertical-video sizes: how big your text stays, what the duration badge covers, and what gets cropped.

Check which AI uses in your YouTube video need disclosure, get element-by-element verdicts based on YouTube’s published guidance, and see where the label may appear.

Map the 90-day window behind each Shorts payout month, test your daily pace, and see the first month that could fall below 10 million qualified views.

Draw a random winner from real YouTube comments, with unique-commenter filtering built in for free and a shareable receipt anyone can re-check against the live comment pool.

Paste any YouTube link and get a clean URL, timestamp, short link, embed code, thumbnails, or a UTM-tagged version — built in your browser, no account or server involved.

Break down what a YouTube video actually costs you — recording, editing, packaging, overhead — and see whether your posting frequency fits the hours you really have, or quietly runs over them.
