How it works
Add a video
Yours or anyone's. ytrank stores the current title, description, tags and thumbnail as version 1.
We diff on schedule
Each check compares against the last saved version; changes create a new version in the archive.
Study the changes
See old vs new side by side — which words were added, which thumbnail replaced what.
Why it matters
Big channels quietly A/B their titles and thumbnails after launch — it is one of the strongest growth levers on YouTube, and it is invisible unless you catch the before and after. A change monitor turns those silent experiments into lessons you can apply to your own videos.
Frequently asked questions
Can I monitor my own videos?
Yes — useful as an audit trail, or to catch accidental edits by collaborators.
Are old thumbnails saved?
Yes, every version's thumbnail is archived so you can compare them visually.
How quickly is a change detected?
On your chosen schedule — hourly at the fastest. The e-mail includes what changed.
