The ViewStats alternative that helps you make the next video
ViewStats shows you what happened. Vid0 shows what's working for channels your size, which keywords you can win, and checks your next upload before it goes out. Free to start, from $12 a month after that.
Free forever plan. No card. Works next to ViewStats.
Real screenshot: 44 videos from 8 tracked channels beat their own channel's expected views at least 2× in 30 days.

Numbers that fit your channel
Outliers judged at the same age
A video's views only mean something next to its own channel's usual numbers, for a video that old. Vid0 compares every video that way, so a three-day-old upload and a three-year-old one are judged fairly.
- 2×, 5× and 10× outliers from the channels you track
- Every saved idea keeps the videos that inspired it
Keywords you can actually win
Demand and competition tell you if a topic is popular. Vid0 adds the question that matters to a small channel: how many of the top results come from channels your size?
- Keyword score from 0 to 100
- Winnable for your size, from the real top results
Size up any channel in seconds
Open a channel on YouTube and Vid0 shows its typical and median views, upload rhythm and estimated earnings under the header. One click opens every recent upload coloured by how it did.
- Recent uploads at 2× and 5× their usual views
- When they post and what formats they make
Check it before you publish
Open a video in Studio and Vid0 drafts title ideas from what it's about, scores your description part by part, and shows the hours your past uploads did best.
- Rated title ideas, inserted with one click
- A description score you can actually fix
Where ViewStats is still better
- Thumbnail search: see which thumbnail styles get clicks in a niche.
- Clean views-over-time history and title and thumbnail change tracking for any video.
- Trend alerts and collections for organising research.
- A members-only Discord with workshops on Pro.
