This MAJOR new feature is currently in public beta.
It's available to all Subscribr customers on the Creator plan or above.
With Intel, you now have the perfect Ideation partner available to you directly in Subscribr.

Intel will help you explore profitable niches like no other tool.
It will also help you find outlier videos that you can repurpose for your own videos.
Rather than spending hundreds of dollars on other ideation tools like Viewstats and Nexlev, you can now get it all from Subscribr!
I also worked hard to bring something NEW to the table:
✅ Intel has a fun, easy to use natural language search method - rather than a million confusing filters like other tools. You literally just type in what you're looking for.
✅ The main page has a list of trending channels and videos, making it easy to uncover what's growing the fastest.
✅ Every channel and video you find in Intel is enriched with detailed data like the audience and topic.
✅ I'm proud to introduce a channel Velocity Score to uncover channels that are growing rapidly
✅ Channels have a Performance Overview that helps you very quickly understand what's working and not working for them
✅ When looking at a channel or video, you can click "Similar" to quickly find other YouTube content on the same topic.
✅ Each channel and video has a Remix button so you can very quickly remix the channel or video to create new content using Subscribr (COMING SOON)
✅ There is a handy bookmarking system so you can keep track of your favorite channels and videos. You can even tag them and add notes, all easily discoverable by your team.
✅ Want to explore the channel or video in more detail? Just click the Chat button to automatically open a new Ideation Chat session with the channel or video already added to the context.
Intel is currently tracking over 25,000 channels and 2,000,000 videos. That should be enough to find useful channel and video examples for most topics. But I can do better.
Now that the basic features are complete, I will be significantly ramping up the number of channels in the index.
And you can help!
If you search for @ChannelName"in Intel, and the channel doesn't yet exist in the index, it will be added for you and will automatically update as part of the index.
Intel is the ONLY YouTube ideation tool that gives YOU live access to the ability to expand the index and make it better. As more people use Intel, the better it will get.
Please keep in mind this is a public beta and will continue improving. As always, I welcome your feedback 🤘
Managing your YouTube presence in Subscribr is now easier than ever.
Audience Editing
By popular demand, you now have the ability to edit the audience avatar generated by Subscribr.
From your channel's Audience page, click the Actions button and select "Edit Avatar".
CleanShot 2025-04-22 at 15
You'll able to edit each element of the avatar to make it perfect.
Custom Channels
The new Custom Channel feature lets you create a brand new channel in Subscribr by simply describing your target audience - perfect if you haven't launched your YouTube channel yet.
CleanShot 2025-04-22 at 15
From your Channels page, click "Add Channel" and select the "Create Custom Channel" option.
After entering your channel name, description, and target audience, Subscribr will get to work creating a detailed audience avatar and channel voice perfectly suited to your audience.
Channel Linking
Perhaps you began using Subscribr by entering your competitor's channel. But now you have your own channel, and you'd like to switch the YouTube channel that Subscribr links to. You can accomplish this with the new Channel Linking feature.
To get started, head to your channel's Settings page. At the bottom you'll see a new Channel Connection section.
CleanShot 2025-04-22 at 15
Click the Unlink Channel button to remove the direct link between your channel in Subscribr and the YouTube channel it's currently associated with. Don't worry - you won't lose any of your scripts or other settings.
Next, if you'd like to link your channel in Subscribr to a new YouTube channel, head down to the same section again and click Link Channel.
CleanShot 2025-04-22 at 15
You'll be asked to enter the channel handle. You'll also have the option to keep your existing audience avatar, or to use one based on analyzing the content of the YouTube channel you're linking to. When in doubt, opt to keep your custom audience. You can always update it later if desired by clicking the "Refresh Audience" button on your audience page.

New model alert 📣
Subscribr now supports scriptwriting with Gemini 2.5 Pro and Grok v3!
I've found Gemini to be a very good model for adhering to writing instructions.
Grok should be better for sensitive topics that other models refuse to write about.
Ideation Chat now has an index of 25k channels and 1.5M videos that you can ask questions about.
CleanShot 2025-04-10 at 16
You can use this to discover new channels or videos to get ideas for improving your own content.
Here are some examples:
In these examples you'll notice that you can even filter the results by things like outlier scores, view counts, subscriber counts, publish date, and more.
This is a brand new feature and I'm working hard to improve both the size of the index, as well as the way Ideation Chat uses the index to deliver insights about the channels and videos it finds.
Subscribr's channel and video index has some major benefits over similar outlier databases:
  1. The channels in the index update regularly, so the stats you see will be relatively current. The exact update frequency depends on several factors, but could be as often as daily or as infrequently as every 30-60 days.
  2. YOU can add new channels or videos to Subscribr's index, simply by mentioning them in Ideation Chat. The index grows automatically based on your input.
  3. More channels are added to Subscribr's index daily, with a focus on high quality channels that are less than 2 years old and have at least 50k views. The reason for this is to find channels that are "winning" on YouTube, not simply any possible channel we could find. This makes the index more useful for Ideation.
This new feature is just getting started, and there are plenty of opportunities to make it better. I hope you enjoy it!
🔥 PRICE DROP 🔥
Scriptwriting research is now COMPLETELY FREE!
We've boosted script research capacity by 10X:
5,000 → 50,000 words
on ALL plans with no extra credits needed
More detailed, accurate scripts without spending extra
The research limits expand based on your subscription level:
Ideation: 50K words
Creator: 75K words
Automation: 100K words
Scale: 125k words
You'll see the new, higher limit the next time you create a script
CleanShot 2025-04-10 at 16
The credit calculator on the Pricing page has also been updated to remove research words from the calculation.
See all the updates at https://subscribr.ai/pricing
Now you can choose between 3 different AI models for your scripts:
  • Claude 3.7 Sonnet (previously the default)
  • GPT 4o
  • DeepSeek V3
When Subscribr first started, Claude was by far the best writing model. But these other models have recently caught up. And so I wanted to bring them to you and give you the choice of which to write with.
You may find that GPT 4o writes a bit faster, while the new DeepSeek V3 model is slower but quite exceptional - especially for stories.
Choose your model by visiting the Settings page for your channel, and adjusting the model from the dropdown menu:
CleanShot 2025-03-28 at 09
Using Your Selected Model
Once you've chosen your preferred AI model in Channel Setting, Subscribr will automatically use this model whenever you:
  • Generate a new outline in the script builder
  • Create draft content for any section of your script
  • Use the "Generate Draft" button for individual sections
  • Request a complete outline and draft in one step
Your model selection applies to all new content generation but doesn't affect previously generated content. This gives you complete control over which AI brain powers your scriptwriting process.
  1. Now has the ability to "see" thumbnails, giving you the ability to analyze competitor thumbnails and help you riff on them for your channel
  2. When analyzing transcripts, it now has access to precise timestamps to help reference the right moments in a video
  3. Soon it will also begin showing outlier scores to help you understand a video's performance compared to others on the same channel
Stay tuned because what's coming next with Ideation Chat is going to be pretty crazy.

1. Review renamed to Export
The "Review" step in the script builder is the primary place where you can copy and download your script.
To better clarify the goal of this step, I've renamed it to "Export".
CleanShot 2025-03-21 at 11
2. Script Status
The Dashboard shows a badge indicating the status of each script.
The status can be Title, Draft, Publish, etc. This indicates the last step you've completed in the script building workflow.
To date the last status has been Edit. But I've just added two new statuses
Export
- Triggered when you copy or download your script or research
Publish
- Triggered when you generate tags or a description
3. Video Description
On the Settings page for your channel, there is now a Video Description field. If you typically include the same footer / template in each of your video descriptions, this is a great place to add it.
Anything you put here will be appended to the bottom of the descriptions that get generated on the Publish step of the script builder.
CleanShot 2025-03-21 at 12
If you'e reading your script aloud, the new Teleprompter feature will be a huge help. It loads your script in a large font size and autoscrolls.
You can use the keyboard to adjust the speed and start/stop as you go, making it easier than ever to record an entire script in just one take.
From your channel dashboard or from the Review step of the script builder, you'll now see the new Teleprompter link.
Working with a voiceover artist? You can now use the Team Controls to give them Viewer access to your channel so they can quickly access the teleprompter too.
CleanShot 2025-03-14 at 08
While you always had the ability to invite team members to your Subscribr account, there previously was no way to restrict access to certain features.
But now you have three roles to pick from:
Admin
- users who have access to everything
Editor
- users who can manage channels and create scripts
Viewer
- users who can view channels and scripts but can't edit
Even better, you can now restrict which channels a given user has access to.
With these controls in place, you can invite your voiceover and thumbnail artists to work on your channel. Or, you could create a channel for each marketing client and share access separately.
Lastly, invited team members can now sign up with a password, removing the previous requirement to sign up via Google auth only.
Head to your Team Settings page to set things up.
