YouTube Revenue Calculator

Estimate how much any YouTuber earns from ad revenue. Paste a channel URL or handle and get monthly and yearly estimate ranges based on the channel's real public views from the last 12 months, its detected niche, and benchmark CPM rates. It is built for creators sizing up their own channel, brands checking a creator before outreach, and sponsors comparing channels before a deal.

Revenue numbers are modeled estimates from public data and benchmark CPM ranges. They are not verified payouts and can differ from actual creator analytics.
Enter any YouTube channel URL or handle to estimate their ad revenue

How It Works

  1. 1. Sign in and paste a channel URL or handle. The tool runs on your signed-in account and costs 1 credit per calculation.
  2. 2. The tool pulls the channel's public videos from the last 12 months. It analyzes up to 200 videos, including their view counts and publish dates.
  3. 3. It detects the channel's niche from video titles and descriptions. The niche sets the CPM band used for the estimate. Finance, tech, gaming, beauty, education, and music are among the niches detected.
  4. 4. It applies benchmark CPM rates to the real view counts. The calculation assumes about 65% of views are monetized, and the CPM rates already reflect YouTube's roughly 45% share of ad revenue.
  5. 5. You get low, midpoint, and high estimate ranges. Monthly, yearly, and per-video figures are shown as ranges, not a single exact income number.

What You Will See in the Results

Every result is an estimate range built from the channel's actual public views, so two channels with the same subscriber count can show very different numbers. The report includes:

  • Estimated monthly ad revenue as a low, midpoint, and high figure, plus the matching yearly estimate and the average revenue per video.
  • The detected niche and its CPM rates. CPM bands vary a lot by niche. In the tool's benchmarks, finance averages $8.00 per 1,000 monetized views, tech averages $4.00, and music averages $1.50.
  • View metrics for the last 12 months, including total views and average views per video.
  • A view trend, comparing the average views of videos from the last 3 months against older videos, shown as growing, slightly up, stable, slightly down, or declining.
  • A month-by-month breakdown of views and estimated revenue for each month in the last year.
  • The top 10 earning videos, ranked by views with an estimated revenue range for each.
  • A revenue grade from S to D. The grade is set by the estimated monthly average: S is $100,000 or more, A is $20,000 or more, B is $5,000 or more, C is $500 or more, and D is below $500.

These are modeled estimates from public data and benchmark CPM ranges. They are not verified payouts and they do not include sponsorships, merchandise, memberships, or other income sources. Actual creator earnings can be above or below the range.

YouTube Revenue Calculator FAQ

How much money does a YouTube channel make per 1,000 views?

Earnings per 1,000 views vary significantly by niche, audience location, and ad demand. This calculator provides benchmark-based ranges, not exact payout values.

How much does YouTube pay per view?

Per-view earnings depend on ad inventory, geography, watch behavior, and content category. Actual creator payouts can be above or below benchmark ranges in this tool.

How much does a YouTuber with 1 million subscribers make?

Subscriber count alone is not enough to estimate earnings. View consistency, niche, audience geography, and monetization mix drive most revenue outcomes.

Is this YouTube money calculator accurate?

This tool provides realistic estimates based on real view counts from the YouTube API and published CPM benchmarks by niche. Actual earnings vary based on ad-block usage, viewer geography, seasonality, and YouTube's monetization thresholds. Treat it as an informed estimate, not a guarantee.

Does this estimate include sponsorships, merch, or memberships?

No. The estimate covers ad revenue only. Sponsorships, merchandise, channel memberships, affiliate income, and other revenue streams are not included, so a creator's total income can be much higher than the ad estimate shown here.
