What we can measure

Views, likes, comments, publication age, recent-channel medians and current public view rate.

Owner-only metrics

CTR, impressions, retention and watch time are outside public-data mode unless supplied through a supported owner-data input.

Best use

Identify whether an upload is materially below the channel's recent public baseline before deciding what to investigate next.

YouTube video performance analysis using a channel-specific baseline

A single view count is hard to interpret without context. This tool compares the selected upload with recent videos from the same channel so age, typical reach and interaction patterns are easier to judge.

Views and video age

Public views are normalized with the publication date to calculate lifetime views per day.

Public engagement rate

Likes and comments are compared with views using a visible formula.

Recent-channel percentiles

The upload is positioned against a recent sample from the same channel rather than a generic niche benchmark.

When to use the video diagnosis tool

Use it when a new upload appears weak, when an older video looks unusually strong, or when you want a public-data check before reviewing private Studio metrics such as impressions, CTR and retention.
