FAQs

Does this only work for YouTube?

No. It includes YouTube, TikTok, Instagram, Facebook, and Twitch presets. It uses editable net revenue per 1,000 views so creators can model platform differences more honestly.

Why are there low, expected, and high ranges?

Actual revenue varies by niche, viewer country, seasonality, watch time, and ad demand. Ranges prevent the calculator from pretending there is one universal number.
