Statistics & Analytics
Channel-wide analytics for any public channel — plus the view nobody else draws: the upload rhythm heatmap. Which days and hours the channel actually publishes, mapped from its recent uploads, with a consistency score that separates the metronomes from the burst uploaders.
- ● Upload rhythm heatmap + score
- ● Last 10 uploads analysed
- ● Cadence, averages, efficiency
- ● CSV & JSON export
Start typing — handles, channel URLs, legacy /c/ and /user/ links, bare UC… IDs and even single video URLs all resolve.
Handle, channel URL, UC… ID or any video from the channel — you'll get subscribers, views, averages across recent uploads, cadence and the current best performer.
Days × hours of the channel's recent uploads on one grid, plus a consistency score — the schedule (or the chaos) at a glance.
Subscribers and total views say little on their own. Averages across the last 10 uploads show what the channel actually delivers today.
The over-performer among the last 10 uploads, highlighted — the fastest way to spot which topic or format is working right now.
No account, no API key of your own, no watermark. Works on desktop and mobile — anywhere a browser runs.
How to
How to check any YouTube channel's statistics
Handle, channel URL, legacy /c/ or /user/ link, bare UC… ID — or just a video URL from the channel you're researching.
The channel and its last 10 uploads are fetched from the YouTube Data API — the same numbers YouTube publishes, never scraped estimates.
Per-upload averages, engagement and efficiency — then the rhythm heatmap: which days and hours uploads land, with the consistency score.
Download CSV/JSON, or jump straight into Video Statistics for any of the recent uploads.
Who it's for
Competitor research without the spreadsheet
Creators track competitor channels in their niche: how often they publish, what their average upload earns, and which recent video broke out — the roadmap for what to make next.
Sponsorship & brand teams vet channels before a deal with per-upload averages rather than the headline subscriber count — an inflated sub count with weak recent views is instantly visible.
Agencies monitor client channels and report cadence, average engagement and best performers without logging into every client's YouTube Studio.
Journalists & researchers cite API-accurate channel figures with a link anyone can verify — no screenshots of Social Blade required.

What each metric actually tells you
Channel-level numbers mislead in predictable ways — big lifetime totals hide a dead present, and a hidden schedule hides a fragile habit. Each derived metric here exists to correct one specific distortion.
| Metric | Formula | Corrects for |
|---|---|---|
| Avg views / upload | mean of last 10 uploads | Lifetime totals inflated by old hits |
| Avg engagement | (likes+comments) ÷ views, last 10 | Bought or dormant audiences |
| Views per subscriber | total views ÷ subscribers | Inflated sub counts with weak reach |
| Upload rate | 7 ÷ avg gap in days | 'Active channel' claims — measured, not stated |
| Rhythm heatmap | uploads on a days × hours grid (UTC) | Guessing the publishing slot |
| Consistency score | (day share + gap regularity) ÷ 2 × 100 | Bursts masquerading as a schedule |
Two ways to read a channel
Performance vs discipline
Two channels with identical subscriber counts can be opposite businesses. The numbers tell you how well the content works; the rhythm tells you whether the operation behind it is repeatable.
What the content earns
Overview + Recent uploads: averages, engagement, efficiency, and the current best performer.
Signals to trust
avg views / upload— the channel's real market price today, not its lifetime legendviews per subscriber— over ~100 means search/suggested reach beyond the fanbasebest recent video— the topic or format working right now; the roadmap hint
Whether it repeats
Rhythm heatmap + Cadence: when uploads land and how regular the machine is.
How to read the verdicts
Metronome / Steady— a production system; growth projections are believableBursty— motivation-driven output; averages may not hold next quarterhot cell on the grid— their slot; publish yours before it if you're competing head-on
Which should I use?
Vetting a sponsorship — performance first: per-upload averages are what your placement actually buys. Studying a competitor — discipline first: a bursty channel with great averages is beatable on consistency alone; a metronome with your numbers is the one to actually worry about.
One tool, every intent
However you searched for it, this is the page
People land here wanting channel stats, a subscriber count checker, channel analytics without Studio access, or a Social Blade alternative with current numbers. One workflow: paste, read, benchmark the rhythm, export.
Channel analytics for channels you don't own
Studio shows your channel; this shows any public channel — same official API, plus the derived metrics Studio doesn't compute about your competitors.
A subscriber checker that reads deeper
The API rounds subscriber counts platform-wide (a 2019 policy) and creators can hide them entirely — which is why the efficiency and per-upload metrics matter more than the headline number.
The publishing slot, mapped
"When does this channel upload?" used to mean scrolling their videos tab and doing calendar math. The heatmap answers it in one look — and the consistency score says whether the slot is a habit or a coincidence.
From stats to strategy
Pair it with the rest of the workflow: Video Statistics benchmarks a single upload inside this channel, and the Money Calculator's by-channel mode turns these views into revenue bands.

FAQ
Frequently asked questions
How do I check the statistics of a YouTube channel?+
Paste the channel's handle (@name), any channel URL — including legacy /c/ and /user/ links — or even a single video from that channel. The tool resolves it through the official YouTube Data API and returns subscribers, total views, video count, averages across the last 10 uploads and the channel's upload cadence.
Is this YouTube channel statistics tool free?+
Yes — completely free, no signup and no API key of your own. It's a quick alternative to Social Blade when you want current API-accurate numbers and recent-upload performance on one screen.
What does subscriber-per-view efficiency mean?+
Total views ÷ subscribers. It shows how hard a channel's library works relative to its audience size: a ratio above ~100 means the channel earns lots of views per subscriber (search/recommendation-driven), while a low ratio suggests views come mostly from the loyal base.
How is upload cadence calculated?+
From the publish dates of the last 10 uploads: we measure the average gap between consecutive videos and express it as uploads per week or per month. Channels that upload in bursts will show a tighter cadence than their long-run average.
What is the upload rhythm heatmap?+
This tool's signature: the channel's recent uploads plotted on a days-of-week × hours-of-day grid (UTC), so you see the actual publishing slot — 'Tuesdays, afternoon' — instead of guessing. Next to it, a 0–100 consistency score built from two printed components: how concentrated uploads are on the modal day, and how regular the gaps between them are.
