MONETIZATION CHECKER FOR YOUTUBE - INSTANTLY CHECK CREATOR MONETIZATION STATUS Unlock crucial insights into any YouTube channel's monetization status with Monetization Checker for YouTube! Whether you are a digital marketer, content creator, agency researcher, competitor analyst, or simply curious about how creators fund their content, this extension provides a premium, lightweight, and incredibly fast way to verify monetization statuses on-the-fly. With a modern slate-dark user interface, circular confidence gauges, in-page button integrations, and a persistent logs dashboard, Monetization Checker does the hard work for you. It scans public channel properties and video scripts, aggregates signal data, and presents a complete breakdown of how a channel makes money. ================================================== KEY FEATURES ================================================== 1. IN-PAGE YOUTUBE INTEGRATION (ON-THE-FLY SCANNING) No need to copy and paste links. Monetization Checker injects a clean, non-invasive check button directly next to the YouTube Subscribe button on channel homepages and video watch pages. Click it to immediately trigger an overlay analysis box with breakdown results. 2. ADVANCED MULTI-SIGNAL SCORING SYSTEM Rather than just guessing, the extension crawls multiple public partner indicators to determine monetization probability: * YouTube Channel Memberships: Identifies active creator sponsorships ("Join" buttons). * Super Thanks: Detects active tipping configurations on watch page scripts. * YouTube Video Advertisements: Scans video playbacks for legacy desktop ad placements, active instream ad states, and partner program ad keys. * Merchandise & Stores: Identifies merchandise shelves and official product stores. 3. SLATE-DARK DYNAMIC CIRCULAR GAUGE Get your results at a single glance! The dashboard popup renders a beautiful circular gauge displaying: * A computed scoring rank from 0 to 10. * Color-coded status badges directly mapped to YouTube-specific terms: Monetized, Likely Monetized, Fan-Funded Only, Low Signals, or Not Monetized. * Interactive tooltips detailing which signals were found. 4. PERSISTENT SCAN RECORDS DASHBOARD Keep track of all your creator queries in one place: * Search & Filter: Find specific channels in your history or filter logs by status (Monetized, Fan-Funded, or Not Monetized). * Retention Controls: Set custom limit retention caps (up to 500 entries) to automatically clean up older logs. * Data Export: Export your scanned histories to a clean, well-formatted CSV spreadsheet with a single click. ================================================== HOW IT WORKS ================================================== Monetization Checker operates directly in your browser without requiring personal API keys or account log-ins. * When you scan a channel, the extension fetches public metadata listings (such as the videos page and uploads playlist). * It extracts the channel's display name, avatar logo, and subscriber count. * It parses public player configurations on recent uploads to identify active monetization signals. * It calculates a final score based on these weighted signals. ================================================== PRIVACY & PERFORMANCE FIRST ================================================== * Manifest V3 Compliant: Built strictly on Chrome's latest extension standard, ensuring optimal security, safety, and background resource usage. * No User Data Collected: We do not track, collect, or store your browsing history, searches, or accounts. All query logs are stored entirely in your browser's secure local storage (chrome.storage.local). * Extremely Lightweight: The extension runs background scrapers only when requested, consuming zero CPU cycles or memory when idle. ================================================== WHO IS THIS FOR? ================================================== * Digital Marketers & Brands: Instantly check if target influencers have active ad monetization and brand-friendly channels for sponsorships. * Aspiring Creators: Research competitor channels to study their monetization models (ads vs. memberships vs. merchandise). * Curious Viewers: Find out how your favorite creators support their video production. ================================================== DISCLAIMER ================================================== This extension acts as an analytical predictor using publicly available indicators on YouTube pages. While highly accurate, actual monetization status is determined solely by YouTube and the respective channel owner.
