Step 01
Add the channels your buyers watch by @handle or link, or let PreFilm suggest them from searches.

Step 03
Break any video down, read what its viewers ask for, then turn the best into ideas for your offer.
00:02Compare channels
A YouTube channel comparison by subscribers tells you who's bigger, not what worked. PreFilm compares every video to its own channel's normal, so a small channel's breakout counts as much as a big channel's. These four are real.
00:03Why it worked
A YouTube competitor analysis tool should tell you why a video worked, not just that it did. PreFilm breaks any video down into three things.

00:07Questions
You tell PreFilm the channels your buyers watch, or ask it to suggest some. It finds the videos that beat their own channel's normal, with each one's multiple, age, channel size and how often the format has been done, then turns the best ones into video ideas for what you sell.
Yes. PreFilm measures every video against its own channel's normal, so you can compare YouTube channels of any size fairly. A 39,500-subscriber channel's 14× breakout shows up next to a 4.6 million-subscriber channel's 5.5× one, so you see which idea did the work, not which channel is bigger.
A YouTube channel comparison usually lines channels up by size: subscribers, total views and growth. Competitor analysis asks what worked for them and why. PreFilm compares channels by which videos beat their own normal, then breaks those videos down and reads their comments, so you know what to make next.
The ones you add, by @handle or channel link, up to 12 per channel. You can add or remove them at any time, and PreFilm can suggest channels your buyers watch from the creators who send you viewers and the channels ranking for your buyers' searches.
Yes. A video breakdown takes any YouTube video apart: how far it beat its channel's normal, the hook, the sections and where the pitch comes, what it sells and how it asks, and what its viewers asked for in the comments. A breakdown costs 10 credits.
Yes. A comment scan reads up to 1,000 recent public comments on your channel or a competitor's and counts what their viewers keep asking for, most asked first. On your own channel it also drafts replies in your voice for you to paste. A scan costs 10 credits.
No. Watch time, click-through rate, traffic sources and revenue stay private to the channel owner, in YouTube Studio's analytics. What anyone can see is public: views, subscribers, publish dates and comments. PreFilm works from that public data, comparing each video to its own channel's normal and reading what its viewers ask for in the comments.
