Hi HN,

I’m a solo builder and recently launched a project called Creator Forecast.

The idea came from noticing that while there are many tools for YouTubers that focus on growth, SEO, or analytics, there are very few tools that help creators understand the financial side of their channel.

Creator Forecast connects to a YouTube channel and helps creators:

Analyze subscriber growth, views, and video performance

Track revenue across multiple streams (ads, sponsorships, memberships, merch)

Calculate financial health scores and diversification metrics

Generate AI-powered strategy suggestions and revenue forecasts

Estimate sponsorship pricing and break-even points

The goal is to help creators treat their channel more like a business and understand things like:

how stable their income actually is

how dependent they are on AdSense

what revenue streams they should diversify into

Right now everything on the site is free, because my main goal is to get feedback from creators and improve the product.

Landing page: https://creatorforecast.com

I’d really appreciate any feedback on the concept, features, or usability.

Thanks!
