Plus adds a second layer of filters to the outlier feed. Where the free filters answer "what overperformed?", these answer "what overperformed under conditions like mine?" — which is the question that actually changes what you make.
The filters
Channel size (min/max subscribers) — The most valuable one. Cap it near your own subscriber count and you're looking only at channels in your weight class. What works for a 2M-subscriber channel with a built-in audience frequently does not transfer to a 5K channel; this filter removes that false signal.
Video duration (min/max) — Find the length that overperforms in your niche. Some topics reward 45-minute deep dives; others punish anything over 8 minutes.
Minimum views per sub — Isolates videos that reached far beyond their channel's subscriber base. A high views-per-sub video was carried by the algorithm and the packaging, not by an existing audience — those are the most transferable ideas on the platform.
Channel median (min/max) — Filter by the channel's baseline rather than its subscriber count. Useful because subscriber counts age badly: a channel with 500K subs that now averages 8K views is not a 500K-sub channel in any way that matters.
Minimum comments — A floor on discussion volume. Comment-heavy videos indicate topics with genuine audience investment, which tend to sustain a series rather than a one-off.
A recipe worth stealing
To find ideas that a channel your size could realistically execute:
- Niche — yours
- Format — Longform
- Min outlier score — 5x
- Max subscribers — roughly 2× your own
- Min views per sub — 1.0
- Upload date — last 90 days
- Sort — outlier score
That's a list of recent videos from channels your size that reached well past their own audience. Save it as a filter set and check it weekly.
Availability
Advanced filters are on Plus and Pro. On the free plan the controls are visible but locked — the feed itself, and all the basic filters, stay fully available. See [Plans compared](/plans-compared-free-plus-and-pro).
