Top features in 2025
Keyword Explorer — solid for medium-volume long-tails, weaker on emerging topics.
A/B Thumbnail Testing — the killer feature for sub-1k channels that don't yet have YouTube's native Test & Compare.
Bulk Processing — edit cards, end screens and descriptions across hundreds of videos at once. A lifesaver for older channels.
SEO Studio — scores your title, description and tags against the top-ranking videos for your target keyword.
Pricing breakdown
Free — limited keyword searches, basic productivity tools. Usable for casual creators.
Pro — $4.99/month, the right tier for channels under 10k subs.
Legend — $31.99/month, only worth it once you're posting 3+ videos a week and need bulk processing.
Verdict
Great for SEO-focused channels and anyone managing older catalogues that need cleanup. If you already pay for VidIQ, switching brings limited extra value — pick one and go deep.
