Viewstats is a independent YouTube analytics website created by the American YouTuber MrBeast,[1][2] and co-founded by Chucky Appleby.[3] It allows users to use general analysing tools, but also helps new YouTubers to grow their channel with Viewstats Pro.[1][4][5][6]

Created in December 2023 in beta,[7] and presented in a MrBeast YouTube video in November 2024,[1] it is available in a Google Chrome extension via the Chrome Web Store for free,[8][9] or it can be accessible to their official website. There is currently a mobile app that is in beta,[10] which is planned to be released in Q1 2025.

Controversies[edit]

Alleged involvement in MrBeast drama[edit]

During the MrBeast drama in 2024, Viewstats' live subscriber count stopped updating, starting in August 2024. Its last update stated that MrBeast had 309,164,697 subscribers.[11][12][13]

It is alleged that this was intentionally done to cover up how many subscribers MrBeast was gaining/losing, either by YouTube, Viewstats, or both parties, especially due to its timing.[14] When questioned on Discord, Chucky, the co-founder of Viewstats, stated "lmao the conspiracy theories 😂 don’t worry we’ll fix it,"[15] which became a meme in the statistics community. After further questioning from TRAINAlytics,[16] he was then banned from the server,[17] raising more suspicions.

Eventually, in September 2024, the live subscriber count was fixed. Its first update after it was fixed stated that MrBeast had 313,335,347 subscribers.[18]
