CollabPals CollabPals for YouTube

Free for every CollabPals creator

All of CollabPals,
inside YouTube.

A free Chrome extension that puts your channel numbers, your video ideas, your writing help, and your shoutouts where you already work. Every new tab becomes your channel dashboard. Every search shows you what is actually working. And when you have a shoutout to do, it types it in for you and steps back so you can press the button.

Available in the Chrome Web Store You always press the final button. We never post for you.

What it does

Everything it adds to YouTube

CollabPals for YouTube is a free Chrome extension for YouTube creators. It adds channel analytics, video research, search insights, and writing help directly to YouTube and YouTube Studio, and it fills in CollabPals shoutouts for you. It never posts anything on your behalf.

Your channel, every time you open a tab

One thing worth doing today, waiting for you the moment you open a tab. Underneath it sit your subscriber and view numbers, a trend line across your recent uploads, and how those videos are doing against your own usual. Your shortcuts and search box stay exactly where you expect them, signed in or not. The channel numbers appear once you sign in to CollabPals.

Inside YouTube Studio, a panel scoring this video's search optimisation at 83 out of 100 with a checklist showing the title length, capitals, description length, link and keyword all pass while the title has no hook, above buttons to improve the title, generate title ideas for 0.25 credits, write a description for 0.25 credits, and test the thumbnail with real creators.

Help with the title and description, right where you type them

A score out of one hundred sitting next to the fields as you edit, and a plain checklist of what is missing one click away. Ask for title ideas or a written description and it fills the field in place, with the cost shown before you click. You still press Save.

YouTube search results

See what is actually working

Most results get a quiet line showing how fast they are picking up views. When we already know a video is beating what its own channel normally gets, it is marked with a multiplier, so a real winner is easier to spot than to guess at.

The CollabPals panel open on a YouTube video with the creator's name and video title blurred out, showing that video's total views, views per day and age, a free audit button, shortcuts to get a shoutout, ask for artificial intelligence help, test a thumbnail and open a media kit, and ways to earn credits.
Any video you watch

The numbers under the title

Views, how old the video is, how quickly it is gaining views, and engagement whenever the creator shows likes. Copy its tags in one click. On your own video you also get a shortcut to promote it, and everything else CollabPals can do for that video is one click away in the same panel.

And while you are on YouTube, it also does this

  • Types your shoutouts in for you

    A post, a video comment, a video description, or your media kit link on your channel. It opens the right YouTube page and types your exact wording into the right box. Once you have posted it, paste the link back on CollabPals the same way you do today, and you get credited.

  • Shows you who you can work with

    Creators already on CollabPals get a badge on their channel page, and opening it shows their collaboration listing, their media kit, and similar creators worth knowing. On a channel that is not a member yet, you can run a free scorecard on it instead.

  • Finds real videos working in your niche

    Videos from other channels in your niche that are beating their own usual numbers, with a shortcut to start your own version in Studio. Follow a channel to hear about it the next time one of its videos takes off. Paid plans see more ideas and can follow any channel on YouTube

  • Keeps your account one click away

    Your credits, your plan, what you have waiting, and how long is left on it. One click on the toolbar button from anywhere, without opening the site.

It is free. Take it with you.

Add it to your browser and it is there the next time you open YouTube.

Before you click add

Why Chrome asks for access to YouTube

When you add it, Chrome shows a message that sounds broad. Here is exactly what it means, in plain words.

Chrome will say the extension can "read and change your data on youtube.com and studio.youtube.com." That phrasing is the same for every extension. Here is what it actually does:

  • It only works on YouTube. It can act on YouTube and YouTube Studio pages and nowhere else. It cannot see your email, your bank, or any other website you visit.
  • "Read" means it finds the right box. It needs to see the page so it can locate the Posts composer, the comment box, or the description field and place your shoutout in the correct spot.
  • "Change" means it types into a box, and adds its own panels. It fills in your shoutout, and in YouTube Studio it can write a title or description into the field when you ask it to. It also adds its own CollabPals panels and badges to the page. It never posts, saves, or publishes anything. You do that.
  • It does not read your private data. It does not read your watch history, your private videos, your account details, or any other website. It sends us only what a feature needs at the moment you use it, such as the title and description you asked us to improve, or which button you pressed so we can fix what breaks.

Chrome will also tell you it changes your new tab page. That is on purpose: the new tab is where your channel dashboard lives. Your own search box and shortcuts stay on it, and your searches go to whichever search engine you already use.

This is the same kind of access a password manager uses to fill in a login form. You stay in control, and you can remove it from Chrome at any time.
