About this estimate

We apply a $8.00 RPM (revenue per 1,000 views) for Science & Technology content - the 2026 creator net after YouTube's 45% share - to each video's actual monthly view gain. Numbers above are single best-estimates, not ranges.

Real revenue varies with audience geography, ad demand, advertiser bidding, Premium splits, and seasonality.
