Question 1

Can you predict YouTube retention before publishing?

Accepted Answer

Yes. NARRATA's Analyzer scores a script against retention patterns and flags the specific sections where viewers are likely to drop off, before the video is filmed.

Question 2

How is NARRATA different from VidIQ or TubeBuddy?

Accepted Answer

VidIQ and TubeBuddy are search-era keyword tools. NARRATA is built for the recommendation era: it works on packaging — script retention, idea strength, and thumbnail click-through — rather than keyword volume.

Question 3

Does NARRATA work for long-form YouTube videos?

Accepted Answer

NARRATA is built specifically for long-form creators. The Analyzer is calibrated on full-length scripts rather than short-form hooks.
