What does CreatorML do?

CreatorML uses Predictive AI -- also known as "Machine Learning" or "ML" for short -- to tell YouTube creators what topics, titles, and thumbnails to use for their videos.

Learn from your data and other channel data what kinds of thumbnails and titles work, and have a safe way to see how changing your titles and thumbnails will affect your views over time.

Several big channels are already using it before uploading to take their thumbnail and titles, and optimize them to get the highest predicted view counts possible, and translated these better decisions into accelerated growth.

How does CreatorML help?

Our AI-powered ranker analyzes your title and thumbnail ideas for both new and old videos, and predicts how many views they will get before you either make the change or publish the new video.
‍
In the View Predictor tool, supply your long-form video's titles, thumbnails, duration to instantly receive a view prediction for each title and thumbnail combination. Additionally, it will give you the probabilities that the video will be a "1 of 10" video when published to your channel.

This Predictive AI tool uses a machine learning model trained on YouTube view datapoints from 10,000,000+ long-form videos. Using that information, the model detects patterns in the thumbnails and titles that correlate well with high click-through rates, and therefore high view counts.

The model uses computer vision and natural language processing (NLP) in order to obtain view estimates that are the most accurate outside of YouTube itself. The model can be fine-tuned for specific channels; scroll down for more information on this.

Our software comes with other powerful tools for YouTube Ideation and Prediction, such as our Title Generator, YouTube Chrome Extension, and Outlier-Video Database.

Below, we describe the best ways to use this tool.

Why am I only recieving a few title suggestions?

The suggested titles shown to you are ones that perfectly fit the parameters you set. There may be additional options that almost fit your criteria, so we recommend experimenting with specific or flexible guidelines.

How often should I upload my analytics with new data?

The predictor tools are retrained every two weeks with the most up to date information. Updating your personal channel data once per week will give you the best predictions based on any changes.

What variables affect my prediction / how do I make my predictions more accurate?

Video title, thumbnail, and duration all affect the accuracy of view predictions.

How do I use Video Search?

Using Video Search can search for any topic in general or update the Advanced Search Filters and search for content in our database.You can then order the results by different attributes.

Try it at https://app.creatorml.com/search

For example, sort the result by "Views:Average (Outliers)" to find outlier videos that are overperforming versus the channel's average views.

Or you can use Video Search 's "Views Per Hour" sorting to see what's trending in your niche, and on YouTube as a whole.
‍

Does CreatorML work on older videos?

Absolutely! Not only can you use our tools to better optimize your new content to get the biggest reach, you can experiment with past videos to see if you can give them a performance boost.

One of our top creators was testing different titles on an older video and not seeing a huge effect. He then used the CreatorML title suggestion feature and updated his original title from something simple explaining the topic of the video to a more engaging one suggested by CreatorML.

With that title paired with an updated thumbnail, our prediction tool told him this could improve the performance of the video, so why not try? As he told us, “The transformation was instant.”

Click-through rates and views on the video skyrocketed just as our tools predicted.

If you have videos on your channel that didn't get the right amount of attention when they were first uploaded, CreatorML can help you choose better titles and thumbnails for them, and breathe new life into them.

Does video length or duration affect YouTube Click-Through Rate (CTR)?

Video length (a.k.a. "duration") has a big impact on your click-through rate (CTR) on YouTube. Longer is not always better, and neither is shorter. It depends on your audience and niche.

When viewers are searching for content on YouTube, they see how long video is right on the thumbnail. Viewers may make their decision whether or not to watch based on how much of a time investment it will be.

A 10 minute video will likely have a lower CTR than a 6 minute video, but more than a 30 minute video. In some ways, you can think of the video duration as the "attention price-tag" of a YouTube video. How much time is a viewer willing to spend?

How does CreatorML help increase my Click-Through Rate (CTR) on YouTube?

Picking the right title and thumbnail for a video is one of the most time-consuming parts of being a YouTube creator, but also one of the most important!

A confusing title or an off-putting thumbnail might turn away viewers who would otherwise be interested in the video.Using the CreatorML predictor tools you can test out suggestions and compare them with your own ideas.

Once you've chosen the best options predicted to get you the most traffic on your video, you can upload knowing you are maximizing your potential views.

How do I get more accurate view predictions for my YouTube channel?

Every time we add a new channel to our database, the view predictions for all other channels and users in CreatorML become more accurate.

This is because the underlying machine learning algorithms benefit from more data to learn from -- or basically, the platform gets smarter every time someone uses it!Our view predictions and title or thumbnail rankings become even more accurate when you grant CreatorML access to your channel's private YouTube Analytics data.

As a Pro level user, you will have access to an advanved View Predictor that is fine-tuned to your channel’s audience viewing behavior. Your predictions can be up to 60% more accurate. All CreatorML needs to build a custom view predictor for your channel is a snapshot of the last 28 days of analytics data from your channel's YouTube Studio.

The instructions for exporting and uploading the data can be found here: https://app.creatorml.com/upload.

Adapting CreatorML's machine learning to your channel takes approximately 30 days, as we need to collect data in order to fine-tune the AI to your channel.To learn more about our subscription tiers, click here.
