What is the catch with the free plan?

One channel and a 28-day window. Multi-channel views, longer history and AI coaching are on paid plans.

Can I upgrade later without losing data?

Yes — upgrading unlocks more channels and history on the same account.

A genuinely free YouTube analytics tool for one channel

No trial countdown, no credit card, no feature that quietly disables after fourteen days. One channel is free for as long as you want it.

The problem with the Studio workflow

Most analytics tools describe themselves as free and mean 'free for a week'. Creators who are not yet earning cannot commit to a subscription to find out whether the product helps.

What YT Manager does differently

One connected channel, free forever, no card required
Views, watch time, subscribers, CTR, retention and top videos
A 28-day analytics window that covers the decisions that matter early
Free generators for titles, descriptions, tags and video ideas
