Enter Your Niche

Enter a topic or industry. The tool will analyze 19 different content formats to find which ones are working for small channels (under 10K subscribers) with 50K+ views.

Analyzing 19 content formats... This may take 2-3 minutes.

How This Works

This tool searches YouTube for 19 different content formats in your niche. For each format, it finds videos with 50K+ views from small channels (under 10K subscribers). If a channel has 3 or more videos with 50K+ views, it counts as 1 successful channel.

Viability Scoring: 20+ successful channels = Great, 10-19 = Good, 5-9 = Fair, Below 5 = Poor

The tool shows you the best-performing format and lists all the small channels that are succeeding, so you can study their content strategy.
