Click Pilot is a game changer for testing and improving your YouTube thumbnails. Without it, it would be a guessing game!

As someone who's been in the thumbnail niche for the past 2 years, this is hands down the best website I've used for thumbnail mockups which I keep coming back to.

FAQs

Thumbnails don't live in a vacuum. They are seen by viewers surrounded by tons of other videos. Previewing your thumbnails within YouTube's UI is the best way to see if your video is clickable and fix any issues early on. Testing against your direct competitors will help you stand out within your specific niche. If you do have a team, our collaboration features allow you to work with them to refine and perfect your thumbnails for maximum performance.
Yes! You can apply to be an affiliate here, and you'll receive lifetime commissions on every ClickPilot subscription you help secure.
Collaborators can preview any thumbnail/title in your project on the Preview page and comment on any of your thumbnails on the Comments page. Collaborators cannot add or remove thumbnails/titles from the project or see your inspiration Board.
Both plans allow you to preview all your thumbnails and titles, compare against your competitors, save inspiration to your Board, and search through our library of viral videos. The Business plan allows you to share your project with other collaborators through the Comments page, where they can comment, attach files, and download full-res versions of your thumbnails, if needed. The Solo plan doesn't have any sharing capabilities.
The Free plan was a limited time offer while we built the full version of ClickPilot. ClickPilot Solo/Business is now live and has a host of features that will help you and your team create amazing thumbnails.
Commenters do not require a ClickPilot account. They can comment on, view, and download project thumbnails, but they cannot add or remove thumbnails/titles from the project or see your inspiration Board. (unlimited)

Editors must log in to ClickPilot, but don't require a paid plan. They can add and remove thumbnails/titles from the project, contribute to your inspiration Board, and comment on thumbnails. (limited to 3 per project)
