I spent 8 months growing a YouTube channel to 50k subs only to realize I was in a $2 CPM niche (gaming commentary). That channel barely made $200/month despite decent views.

So I built ApexVix to solve this for myself and other creators.

What it does:

Scans 400K+ YouTube channels to find what's actually making money (not just getting views) Shows you the CPM range for each niche BEFORE you waste months creating content Tracks 4M+ "outlier videos" (videos that popped off unexpectedly) so you can spot trends early Analyzes any channel in 60 seconds: revenue estimates, health score, posting patterns, what's working The data that surprised me: Some tiny niches with 10k subs are making $5k/month (luxury watch reviews, B2B SaaS tutorials), while million-sub gaming channels struggle to hit $2k. The difference? CPM rates range from $2 to $50+ depending on niche.

Most creators pick niches based on passion or what's trending on Twitter. Then they're shocked when monetization sucks. I wanted actual numbers upfront.

What's different from VidIQ/TubeBuddy: Those focus on SEO and keywords. ApexVix focuses on money. We show you:

Estimated monthly revenue per channel CPM ranges by niche and country Which faceless automation niches are exploding right now Competitor revenue tracking (not just sub counts) After using it myself for 6 months, I went from that $200/month channel to starting a new one in financial education that's on track for $3k/month at just 15k subs.

Some early users are finding 3-5 profitable niches they never considered in their first session. One guy pivoted from tech reviews to AI automation tutorials and tripled his RPM.
