Frequently Asked Questions

Are milestone projections guaranteed accurate?

Projections use linear and exponential regression based on recent performance. Breakthrough viral hits or sudden upload pauses can alter actual milestone timelines.

Can I track historical data for brand new channels?

Yes, historical tracking builds as data points are fetched and indexed. Older, established channels will show deep multi-year trendlines.
