## Common Questions

**How accurate are revenue estimates?**
Directional benchmarks based on aggregated data and industry-standard RPM calculations. Use for planning, not exact forecasting.

**Can I use this on my own channel?**
Yes — use your channel ID with any prompt.

## Troubleshooting

- **No data returned** — Verify the channel ID is valid and public, and the MCP setup is complete (see [Quickstart](/docs/mcp/quickstart)). If you've hit your daily quota, [Upgrade to Pro](?required_nexlev_lite_pro_access=true) for higher limits.
- **Missing metrics** — Data is based on publicly available YouTube data. Private channels and channels with very limited history may return partial results.
