Channel Makeover

Channel Makeover lets you redesign the thumbnails for an entire YouTube channel in one workflow. The AI generates new versions for every video, and you review and approve each one before they're applied.

Getting Started

1. Go to Makeover in the sidebar
2. Enter your YouTube channel URL or channel ID
3. Select how many videos to include (latest 10, 25, 50, or all)
4. Click Start Makeover

How It Works

1. Analysis

The AI scans your channel's existing thumbnails and video titles. It identifies:

• Current thumbnail patterns and styles
• Inconsistencies in branding
• Opportunities for improvement

2. Generation

For each selected video, the AI generates a new thumbnail that:

• Matches the video's title and content
• Follows your design rules (if configured)
• Uses your face model (if available)
• Applies your chosen style (if selected)

3. Review

You see a before/after comparison for each video:

• Current thumbnail on the left
• AI-generated replacement on the right
• Approve, reject, or request a regeneration for each one

4. Apply

Once you've reviewed everything:

• Approved thumbnails can be downloaded in bulk
• Upload them to YouTube Studio to update your channel

Use Cases

• Rebranding — you've changed your channel look and need all thumbnails updated
• Fresh start — your early thumbnails don't match your current quality standards
• Consistency — different thumbnails look like they belong to different channels
• Growth push — refreshing older video thumbnails can boost impressions

Tips

• Start with your top 10 most-viewed videos — refreshing these has the biggest impact on channel impressions
• Set up design rules and a face model before starting a makeover for the best results
• Don't approve everything blindly — some original thumbnails may already be performing well
• The makeover doesn't auto-upload to YouTube — you maintain full control over what gets published
• Credits are used per generated thumbnail, so a 50-video makeover uses 50 credits
