Thanks for choosing PrimeTime Media

One step left: choose how changes reach your channel, then connect the YouTube channel you want us to optimize. You can switch modes any time from your dashboard.

Automatic

Recommended

Every night we review your enabled videos and, where our model predicts more views, update the title, description, tags or thumbnail. Every change is measured against your video’s own baseline, shown before/after in your dashboard, and can be undone.

Pros

  • Changes go live the night they’re ready
  • We test variations and roll back what doesn’t win
  • Largest lift
  • Nothing for you to do; you can still mark any video “ask me first”

Cons

  • PrimeTime holds a standing edit permission (Google calls it “Manage your YouTube account”)
  • You see changes after they go live, with Undo, not before
What we can and can’t do

What we can do

  • Edit the title, description, tags, thumbnail and translations of videos you’ve enabled. That’s the whole list.
  • Read view counts and revenue to measure whether a change helped. You pay only on measured gains, 50/50.

What we can’t do

  • Google doesn’t give us: your Google account or password, comments, captions, monetization or ad settings, channel permissions.
  • Our software has no code path to delete videos, change visibility or upload videos.
  • Disconnect any time: we revoke the permission at Google and delete it.

Approve each batch

Same nightly review, but nothing is applied on its own. When a batch is ready we text you each proposed title, thumbnail and description next to the current one (and email it too). Tap Apply: Google issues us a key that expires within the hour, we apply only what you approved, and the key is discarded.

Pros

  • Nothing changes until you tap Apply
  • PrimeTime holds read-only access between batches
  • Each key expires within the hour

Cons

  • Changes wait for you, so the lift is smaller and later
  • No testing of variations
  • A Google confirmation and a text to act on for every batch
  • Requires a confirmed mobile number
What we can and can’t do

What we can do

  • Read your videos and analytics, and prepare proposals.
  • Apply changes only while you’re approving them. Undo works the same way.

What we can’t do

  • Change anything on your channel on our own: we hold no credential that can.
  • Everything in the Automatic list.

Google will ask for: View your YouTube account · View YouTube Analytics reports

Google asks for your permission. PrimeTime never sees your password.

Texts are optional: Automatic works without a phone number. Approve each batch needs texts, because that’s how we send each batch for approval.

What you’ll see

Three quick screens, then you’re in.

  1. Choose your accountPick the Google account that owns your YouTube channel.
  2. Tick “Select all”, then ContinueGoogle lists only the permissions the mode you chose needs. PrimeTime needs both to work.
