The cumulative line shows this video's total views over time. The shaded band is this channel's typical range at the same age. Stacked underneath: the daily mix of traffic sources.

At Day 12, videos on this channel typically pass around 64 views by then.

Shape shadow

At Day 12, this video’s cumulative-views curve looked most like Video 6 at the same age — 80 vs 24 views by then.

Shape-similar, not outcome-identical. Cosine distance ignores magnitude so a slower or faster peer with the same rise-and-flatten arc can still read as nearest. Worth noting as context — not as a forecast.

This channel's other Day 1 averages are small (6 views) — the ratio isn't yet meaningful at this sample size. Worth watching a few more Day 1 windows before comparing.

Sticky traffic: 5% of total views came from sources where the viewer chose to come back (Direct, Channel Page, Playlist, End Screen, Link)

Click rate by traffic source

How often viewers clicked this video’s thumbnail per surface, alongside the channel-wide trend over the last 30 days.

Click rate often varies by surface — the same thumbnail tends to land differently with a Browse audience than a Search audience. Trend arrows show the source’s channel-wide direction over the last 30 days, not this video specifically.

Engagement

Engagement velocity: 1 in the first 24h, 4 across the first seven days

Engagement events (likes, comments, shares) per unit time over the recent window. The 24-hour figure is sensitive to a single hot day; the 7-day figure smooths it. Often diagnostic in the first week after publish; less so after a video stabilizes.
