What is TubeBuddy?
TubeBuddy is a browser extension and web app that helps YouTube creators research keywords, optimise titles and tags, and test thumbnails. Its AI tools generate title ideas, score and create thumbnails, and suggest what to film next.
SEO tools include a keyword explorer and an SEO studio for each upload, while channel insights, a niche leaderboard and topical analysis help plan content. A/B testing lets you compare thumbnails or titles on live videos to see which gets more clicks.
Productivity tools cover bulk edits to chapters, end screens and related videos across a channel. It runs as a Chrome extension and mobile app alongside YouTube Studio, and each licence covers one YouTube channel.
