AI agent for content creators
Channel Analytics Next-Video Agent
Clear, data-backed choices for the next videos
What it does
Creators often guess what to make next, even though their analytics hold clear clues. Every week this agent pulls video analytics: views, thumbnail click-through rate, average view duration, retention dips, traffic sources and new subscribers per video. It compares each recent video with the channel's own averages, not with other channels. It looks for patterns, such as topics that keep viewers longer or titles with higher click rates, then checks whether each pattern holds across at least three videos. Patterns that do not hold are dropped. It suggests three next-video ideas tied to the patterns and points to retention dips to avoid. The creator decides what to make. Edge case: a video boosted by an external link, such as a news site, is excluded from pattern-finding because its numbers are not typical.
How it works
Follow the arrows from top to bottom. The orange dashed arrow is the loop: when a check fails, the agent goes back and tries again.
