YouTube Video Comparison
Paste two video links to compare them row by row. Published figures, the ratios worked out from them and the revenue estimate are kept in separate groups, so you always know which numbers came from YouTube.
Frequently asked questions
Views, likes, comments, duration and the publish date, exactly as the YouTube Data API reports them. They sit in the “Published by YouTube” group. Engagement rate, view velocity and the per-view ratios are worked out from those figures, and revenue is the only estimate.
Likes plus comments, divided by views, as a percentage. When a video hides likes or has comments switched off, the missing part is left out and the row says which figures it used, rather than counting the hidden number as zero.
Views divided by the number of days since the video was published — the average pace at which it has been watched. It lets a three-day-old video be compared with a three-year-old one, which raw view counts cannot do.
It is a range, not a figure. It applies published niche and country RPM benchmarks to the view count. Real earnings depend on the audience, season, ad formats and advertiser demand, and only the channel owner can see them.
No. It means that video leads on the published metrics compared here. It cannot see promotion, ad spend, playlist placement or how long each video has been online, and it is not a judgement of how well either video is made.
Yes, any two public videos. Videos from the same channel are flagged as such, which is useful when you are testing a format or thumbnail change against your own baseline.
No. Every tool is free and needs no account. Nothing you paste is stored: the request is processed and the result is sent back to your browser.
The shared YouTube Data API quota resets daily. If it runs out, open Advanced options and paste your own YouTube Data API v3 key; it is used for that one request and never saved.
