vidIQ

YouTube optimization toolkit offering keyword research, competitor tracking, and AI coaching to grow channel views.

vidIQ is a YouTube growth toolkit delivered as a browser extension plus a web and mobile app. It scores keywords for search and competition difficulty, surfaces outlier and trending videos in a creator's niche, tracks competitor channels, and audits a channel's own SEO signals. An AI layer generates title, thumbnail, and script ideas and coaches creators on what to try next based on channel performance. It's aimed at individual creators and small teams optimizing discoverability rather than agencies managing many channels at once, with a free browser-extension tier and paid plans that add deeper research limits and AI features.
