YouTube restricts and demonetises quietly — no email, no list, no reason. Most creators find out from the revenue graph, weeks late. We audit your catalogue the way a policy reviewer would, against the written rules, and hand you a shortlist you can act on.
Keyword tools fail on channels like yours in both directions: they flag everything on a firearms channel and miss everything on a podcast. Our pipeline is built like a review board — three passes, each blind to the others.
Reads every title in your catalogue and asks the reviewer's question: does this describe a violation, or merely discuss a subject? A documentary about violence is not violence.
Sees only the frame — never the title. Is the prohibited thing actually shown, or only named? A grim topic over a clean studio shot stays clean.
The few videos that survive both judges get a reasoned dossier: the clause matched, the evidence, and the nearest clause we rejected — so every claim can be checked, and challenged.
Three channels, picked before we knew anything about them, judged blind. These are the exact reports each creator would receive — including the one where the right answer was "nothing".
437 videos on nuclear accidents and catastrophes. Grim subject matter throughout — and zero of it converted into a false alarm. Discipline is the product.
500 videos. The findings weren't in the footage — they were in two titles that describe an act rather than a topic. An asterisk in the word doesn't hide the sentence.
500 videos, every single one about guns. The scan stayed quiet through the ordinary reviews and stopped on one trigger device demonstrated firing — the one video actually against policy.
The third report is the entire argument in one line: a keyword filter flags all 500 videos on a gun channel. We flagged one, and named the clause.
This market is full of dashboards advertising accuracy no one can have. We measured the ceiling ourselves — it's why our claims hold, and why theirs don't.
We ran the definitive experiment: 60 pairs of near-identical videos from the same channels, one restricted, one not. Best possible effort: a coin flip. Any tool that promises per-video prediction is guessing with your channel.
So we audit at the level YouTube actually enforces — the kind of content — and our reports say exactly that.A free scan reads what the public can see: titles, thumbnails, descriptions, category. Your audio and captions are invisible from the outside — and a measured share of restrictions lives only there.
So a clean free scan means "nothing visible from the outside" — and the deeper tiers exist precisely to close that gap, with your permission.Limited-ads status has no API — it exists only inside your Studio. With your authorization we detect it through revenue signals, and the report always tells you whether you're reading a fact or an inference.
So you always know how much weight a claim can carry.The free scan reads what anyone can see.
The paid tiers read
what only you can grant.
Know where you stand today.
A scan is a photograph. Your channel moves — every upload changes the answer.
Know the moment anything changes.
YouTube will never email you about a restriction. The Watchdog will.
Never publish blind again.
The cheapest restriction is the one that never gets uploaded.
Paste your channel URL. You get the full report whatever it says — including the quiet answer, which is the most common one. No card, no account, nothing installed.
