Tube Radar

AN INTERNAL TOOL BY BIZABLE

Find the videos that
are working right now

Tube Radar (called Scout inside the app since October 20, 2026) is an analytics tool the BizAble team uses when planning video content. It looks at public YouTube data to find videos and channels that are getting a strong response right now.

Today only BizAble staff run it, on a company computer, and it has no sign-up or Google account sign-in. It has proved useful enough inside the company that we plan to offer it to customers as a paid service. Before customers get access, we will update this page, the privacy policy and the terms for the customer service.

What it does

Every number comes from public data returned by the YouTube Data API. No scraping and no unofficial endpoints.

Search by keyword

Find recent public videos for a topic and filter or sort them by views, likes, comments and publish time.

Collect viewer questions

From the public comments on the reference videos picked each day and on videos staff choose, pick out viewers' questions and sticking points with rules on the company computer. Comment authors' names and channels are not kept.

Analytics and reporting

Calculates reference metrics such as views per subscriber and views compared with a channel's average. They are labeled apart from YouTube-provided numbers and are shown only after accepting the derived metrics amendment to the YouTube API Developer Policies.

How it handles YouTube data

  • Public data only. It reads public video and channel data with an API key and never accesses anyone's Google account or private data.
  • Stored on a company computer. Data stays in a local database on a company computer and is not given to other companies. Only when a staff member clicks “AI topic analysis” are the titles, channel names, tags and numbers of that list sent to Google Gemini (through the Antigravity CLI or the Gemini API) for analysis.
  • Deleted on schedule. Video and channel information is deleted or refreshed within 30 days. Statistics are kept for 30 days, or up to 36 months after accepting the amendment.
  • YouTube content is shown as received. Thumbnails and titles are not altered, and videos play in the embedded YouTube player.
