Overview
vidIQ is a YouTube research, optimization, and creator-workflow suite delivered through a web app and browser extension. It combines keyword and trend research, competitor and subscriber analysis, channel audits, title and description help, thumbnails, scripts, an AI coach, and short-form clipping.
The Free plan includes a monthly AI-credit balance, limited research results, one channel, and basic extension tools. Paid Boost and Max tiers increase credits, channel capacity, research limits, creation features, clipping time, and AI-coach depth; team and managed strategy offerings sit above the creator plans.
Supported use cases
Research a video topic
Compare keywords, trends, outliers, and competitors before choosing a subject.

Limitations
Credits are shared across AI tools
Coach messages, thumbnails, scripts, clipping, shorts, and other actions draw from one monthly balance.
Free research is bounded
Free results, tracked competitors, channel count, exports, and some extension views have small limits; free clips carry a watermark.
