HOW IT WORKS
Understand playlist watch time, views and engagement
A playlist is more than a count of videos. Know its time commitment, most watched entries and publishing patterns before you dive in.
To share or save the videos you discover, copy all playlist video URLs.
If you need a lesson outline for your notes, extract all video titles from the same playlist.
01
Paste a public YouTube playlist URL.
02
We collect all accessible videos and public statistics.
03
Explore summary metrics, trends and the searchable video table.
Calculate total playlist watch time
We add the durations of available videos and estimate viewing time at 1x, 1.25x, 1.5x, 1.75x and 2x playback speed. These estimates exclude breaks and videos whose duration is unavailable.
Understand playlist engagement
Compare public views, likes and comments across the collection. Like rate and comment rate divide each total by total views; these describe visible engagement and do not measure unique viewers or private audience analytics.
Find the channels that appear most often
Top Channels groups available videos by their publishing channel. See which creators contribute the most videos to a mixed playlist before choosing what to watch or export.
