Steps

  1. Type a 2–4 word topic; separate up to 3 keywords with commas.
  2. Pick the market, 30 days and the format you plan to make (Shorts / long videos).
  3. Keep AI off-topic filter and Hide 18+ on.
  4. Click Dig now, read the Niche Score, confidence and the Long vs Shorts table.
  5. Green niche → Breakout Channels, Deep dig into 3 sub-niches, or Winning Topics.

✓ What a good result looks like

  • Niche Score ≥ 70 (green); 50–69 means consider
  • High confidence (≥ 60 videos) or medium (30–59)
  • Small channels with videos ≥ 3× their channel median (≥ 10× = viral)
  • Make the format with the higher outlier rate

✕ Common mistakes

  • Keyword too broad ("movies", "food") → diluted results.
  • Topic phrase too narrow (the whole long phrase must appear) → almost every video is filtered out; put a shorter phrase in "On-topic phrases".
  • Looking at million-view videos of big channels: that is channel power, not niche demand.
