Thumbnail and hook test for Tech & Software channels

Your thumbnail is judged next to real tech & software videos, by people who watch tech & software videos anyway. Not by your friends, and not by a general audience that would click anything.

Sign up gives you 5 credits. One review you give = one credit.

What your thumbnail is up against

Tech thumbnails are judged against official product shots, so a review has to look like a verdict rather than a press image.

Where the first 60 seconds usually breaks here

Tech videos lose people to specs read aloud before anyone says what the thing is actually like to use.

How matching works

You pick Tech & Software as your niche and your language when you sign up. Tests are offered to reviewers in the same niche and language first, and you can opt into up to three extra niches and two extra languages if you want more to review.

What a test looks like

  1. One to three thumbnails and titles, plus your first 60 seconds.
  2. Each reviewer sees one thumbnail-title pair in a feed with five real videos from the niche.
  3. They say what the video promises, then watch until they would have left.
  4. You ask for 5, 10 or 15 reviewers — one credit each, unused credits refunded after 72 hours.
