How the numbers are worked out

Every line is views divided by 1,000, times a rate per 1,000 views. Platform ranges are what creators and trackers report in 2026; they come from ad revenue and move month to month. The brand deal line uses the example rate you set with the slider, because each per-view deal prints its own fixed rate before you post.

For the detail behind each platform, read TikTok pay per 1,000 views, YouTube Shorts pay per 1,000 views and Instagram Reels pay.

How do you calculate earnings from views?
