About SocialStatsIQ
Free YouTube analytics and creator tools — no account required
SocialStatsIQ is a free YouTube analytics platform that lets anyone look up the public subscriber count, view statistics, and estimated earnings of any public YouTube channel — no account or payment required. All core data is sourced directly from the official YouTube Data API v3, the same API used by developers and researchers worldwide to access publicly available channel information.
Beyond raw stats, SocialStatsIQ includes free creator tools such as: a YouTube Earnings Calculator that models ad revenue from views and an assumed RPM, a Subscriber Milestone Predictor that forecasts when a channel will hit 1K, 10K, 100K, or 1M subscribers, and an AI YouTube Keyword Generator for video SEO research.

What Data We Use
Public channel totals are retrieved directly from the YouTube Data API v3, provided by Google LLC. This includes subscriber counts, total view counts, video counts, channel creation dates, thumbnails, and banners. All of this information is publicly visible on YouTube itself — we simply make it faster, aggregated, and easier to analyze.
We do not use scraped data, third-party data brokers, or estimates for the core channel statistics. Totals are shown as YouTube reports them, except that channel pages abbreviate large subscriber counts (for example, 1,230,000 appears as 1.2M). YouTube itself may round public subscriber counts.
Sourced via Google Cloud YouTube Data API v3 endpoints.
High-speed cache sync eliminates latency & rate-limit spikes.
Deterministic RPM calculations & milestone velocity projections.
How Earnings Estimates Work
Earnings estimates are our own calculations based on illustrative RPM assumptions — they are notprovided by YouTube or Google. We apply a range of RPM (Revenue Per Mille) values to a channel's estimated monthly views to produce a min/max earnings range.
| Input | Source |
|---|---|
| Subscriber count | YouTube Data API v3 (public, potentially rounded) |
| Total views | YouTube Data API v3 (public, potentially rounded) |
| Monthly view estimate | Total views ÷ channel age in days × 30 |
| RPM range applied | $0.25–$4.00 per 1,000 views (illustrative assumption) |
Actual earnings vary significantly by niche, geography, audience demographics, seasonal ad rates, and non-ad revenue (sponsorships, memberships, merchandise). Our Earnings Calculator lets you input a custom RPM for a more personalised estimate.
How the Channel Grade Works
The channel grade (A++ to D) is a view-velocity metric we calculate as:
Grade formula
Daily views = Total views ÷ Channel age in days
Channels averaging at least 5 million views per day receive an A++ grade. The grade summarizes a lifetime average, not recent momentum, quality, or measured historical growth.
Accuracy & Limitations
- Subscriber counts may be rounded— YouTube rounds counts above 1,000 (e.g., displaying “1.23M” instead of the exact number). For large channels, the API may return a rounded figure.
- Earnings are estimates only — actual creator revenue is private. Our ranges are based on chosen scenario inputs and should be treated as directional ballpark figures.
- API data is cached — fresh cache entries are reused for up to six hours. If the API returns no usable result, an older cached record may be used. This is not a live counter.
Earnings Estimate Methodology
Our earnings estimates are based on the following calculation, applied to each channel’s estimated monthly view count:
Earnings formula
Monthly Views × (RPM ÷ 1,000) = Monthly Earnings
We apply an RPM range of $0.25–$4.00 per 1,000 views, an illustrative range rather than a measured average. Actual income may fall outside it. Our Earnings Calculator lets you input a custom RPM to explore a different assumption.
Monthly view estimates are derived from total lifetime views ÷ channel age in days × 30. These are lifetime-average scenarios, not measured monthly growth.

Editorial responsibility and sources
The SocialStatsIQ Editorial Team maintains the guides and tool explanations. Team attribution names the publisher, not an independently verified individual expert. We link primary documentation for platform rules, distinguish assumptions from measurements, and update dates when the content changes.
Public totals follow the YouTube channel API definitions. Revenue terms follow YouTube revenue analytics guidance. AI tools generate suggestions and do not measure search demand or predict rankings.
