YouTube Analytics turns one explicitly selected owned channel into scoped performance, traffic-source, retention, and content-opportunity evidence. Every result cites its channel, requested date bounds, provider-availability caveat, observation time, metric definitions, source endpoint, and curated report family.
The tool deliberately uses a separate read-only connection and excludes revenue and advertising reporting. Report combinations are fixed to documented channel-report families, and content opportunities use published deterministic thresholds rather than a model's intuition.
What you can do
- channel_summary — read overall reach, watch time, retention, and subscriber change
- video_performance — compare owned videos with compatible engagement metrics
- traffic_sources — see how viewers reached channel content
- audience_retention — inspect one exact video's retention curve
- content_opportunities — classify reach, retention, and engagement gaps using fixed rules
Who it's for
Creators, channel operators, growth teams, and agents who need first-party owned-channel evidence. It is designed for decisions that must remain traceable to one channel and observation window.
How to use it
- Supply the exact owned channel ID and explicit dates to channel_summary
- Use video_performance and traffic_sources to explain reach
- Use audience_retention only with one explicit video ID
- Run content_opportunities to produce reproducible classifications
Getting started
Connect your YouTube Analytics account and provide the exact UC channel ID. The tool never selects a channel from account membership and does not request monetary reporting access.
