Quickstart

Sourced from the LiquidClips dataset · 4,700,802 creatorsBy Daniel Diyepriye, Founder, LiquidClipsUpdated Jul 2026· 6 min read

Three steps: resolve a channel, pull its clippable moments, and price a clip from real views and niche CPM. Everything here runs against the live resolve endpoint. No key required to start.

01Resolve the channel

Point url at any channel. This one call reads the channel live from YouTube and hands back its identity, stats, and a recent-uploads sample.

resolve
curl -s "https://liquidclips.app/api/resolve?url=@veritasium" | jq '.channel, .videoCount'

02Pull the moments

The clippable moments are the long-form uploads (8 minutes and up), richest first. Each long upload yields six or more clips, so this list is your raw material.

filter clippable moments
const res = await fetch(
  "https://liquidclips.app/api/resolve?url=@veritasium"
);
const { videos } = await res.json();

// the clippable moments = long-form uploads, richest first
const moments = videos
  .filter((v) => v.durationSec >= 8 * 60)
  .sort((a, b) => b.views - a.views);

console.log(`${moments.length} clippable uploads`);

03Price a clip

A clip is worth expected views times the niche CPM. The CPM ranges are on the CPM by niche data page, US estimate, per 1,000 views.

clip value
// clip value = expected views x niche CPM (per 1,000)
const CPM = { finance: 5, business: 4, tech: 3, gaming: 2.5, comedy: 1.5 };

function clipValue(medianViews, niche) {
  const cpm = CPM[niche] ?? 2; // blended fallback
  return (medianViews / 1000) * cpm;
}

// a tech channel whose clips do 40k views:
clipValue(40000, "tech"); // => 120  (USD, estimate)
◱ That is the whole model

Clip value = expected views x niche CPM. Resolve gives you the views, the CPM table gives you the rate. Every valuation on LiquidClips falls out of this one line. Read the full logic in CPM, explained.
