YouTube similar channels

Channels similar to one or more seed channels, ranked by what they actually publish rather than by keyword, each with a 0 to 1 similarity score, subscriber and lifetime view totals, recent average views split across long-form and Shorts, country, join date and verification status.

When to use it

Use to map a competitive field from one example: find who else serves a creator's audience, build a creator shortlist from a channel that already converts, or find the equivalent creator in another country. Seed with CHANNEL IDs in UC form, not handles, and get them from youtube.channel or youtube.channel_search, both of which return the id you need. Price is the thing to weigh before calling: $0.36 per matched channel, far above every other row in this catalog, so ask for the number you will actually read. limit is the number you pay for, minimum 10, maximum 25 per call. Filters (subscriber bands, average views, country, verified, has-public-email) narrow the ranking before it is billed, so use them rather than over-fetching and discarding. HasPublicEmail is a true/false flag only, this row never returns an actual email address.

Inputs

YouTube similar channels takes 18 fields, 1 of them required. Anything you leave out falls back to the tool's own default.
