How this works

Paste 2 to 5 video links or IDs. All of them are read in a single YouTube Data API request, so the comparison costs one unit of quota no matter how many videos you add.

Engagement rate is (likes + comments) ÷ views. Views per day divides total views by the days since publishing, which makes a recent video and an old one easier to compare, but it favours videos that are still gaining views.

The video that is strictly ahead on a metric is marked as the leader. Ties, and metrics that are hidden on all but one video, are left unmarked rather than guessed.

Private, deleted and unavailable videos cannot be read by the API. They are left out and the page tells you how many were skipped.
