I am looking for people who want to beta-test my YouTube review platform.

Take back control

YouTube has become a place where you can find basically any type of content. For many people it has pretty much replaced TV. Yet in finding content we are pretty much completely limited by whatever the algorithm decides to feed us.

IMDB for YouTube

In order to combat this I am working on a review platform for the site. Think IMDB but for YouTube. Have you ever binged a YouTuber’s videos and wished you could easily find similar creators? This tool is designed to help you find exactly the creator that matches the style you are looking for.

Leaving a review

Leaving a review works as follows. You leave:

1. An overall rating, from 1 to 10 stars.

2. A style-slider section. Here you rate the channel not on quality, but on certain stylistic aspects of their content. You put the slider into the position that you think best fits the description of the channel’s content.

3. You can leave an optional written review. It has a minimum of 75 words, to filter out low-effort comments. Leave empty if you don’t want to write one.

Searching the database

The main functionality of the site, is that you can search the database looking for channels that best fit the style-configuration that you are looking for. So you:

1. [optional] Select the topics you want to include in the search.

2. Put the filter-sliders in the right configuration. You can ignore sliders or make them relatively more important as well.

3. [optional] Choose additional filters, such as minimum subscriber count, minimum average video length, etc.

4. Press “search”. It will now check the database for the channel that best matches your exact search query. It provides results with a match%

Beta-testers

I need beta testers who want to play around with the system a bit and who will start filling the database. Please pm me if you’re interested. You can also join the discord-server here: https://discord.gg/86bVx8s2. For other contact you can email me at: ytdbcontact@gmail.com
