Slowlight Readonly
Private, read-only YouTube analytics for the Slowlight channel owner.
Slowlight Readonly is a personal tool used only by its operator. This informational website does not offer public registration, account connections, or paid subscriptions.
What the tool does
The tool uses YouTube API Services, including the YouTube Data API and YouTube Analytics API, to review the owner's video performance. It reads video and channel metadata, views, watch time, average view duration, aggregate subscriber changes, and available traffic-source and search-term reports. Collection times and reporting periods are recorded with the data.
The tool also reads public information about a limited sample of sleep-music videos. These samples are not official YouTube-wide rankings. Unavailable data is kept distinct from measured zeroes.
Permissions and control
The analytics workflow requests only youtube.readonly and yt-analytics.readonly.
It does not upload or delete videos, or change their titles, descriptions, or visibility. Separate upload tooling has its own authorization and is outside this analytics workflow. Visiting this website does not grant access to a Google account.
Storage and use
Reports are stored in access-restricted Google Sheets. Raw API responses, collection checkpoints, deduplication records, and update history are stored in a private GitHub repository. Selected exports and work records may be kept on the operator's computer. GitHub Actions provides remote execution.
The information is used for the operator's channel analysis. Private reports and authentication values are not published on this website. Recurring collection is planned; the website does not indicate that scheduled execution is already enabled.
Read the Privacy Policy for details about storage, service providers, manual retention and deletion, and revoking access.
Terms of use
This tool is for the operator's personal use. By using it, the operator agrees to be bound by the YouTube Terms of Service and the Privacy Policy. API reports may be delayed, incomplete, or unavailable. Reports do not guarantee an outcome for any title, thumbnail, or video.
