20 checks, 17 passed, 1 to review
| ✓ | Metrics came from the platform | Every audience figure here is a value YouTube's own API returned, never estimated or inferred. The price estimate is the one number we work out ourselves, and it is labelled and shows its arithmetic. | not published |
| ✓ | Enough recent posts to judge | 6 recent posts sampled (target 6). | not published |
| ✓ | Average views ≥ 20,000 | 52,524 average views, median 38,410, across 6 posts. | required |
| ✓ | Typical post also clears 20,000 | Median views 38,410 and outlier-trimmed mean 36,609 both clear the floor. A sponsored post should land in that range. | integrity |
| ✓ | Tech / dev / software engineering | 9 distinct dev signals in the bio and post text: docker, coding, developer, github, open source, llm. | required |
| ✓ | Not a gaming channel | YouTube's own category for the sampled posts: Science & Technology. | required |
| ✓ | Not a hardware / gear channel | No hardware/gear pattern. | preference |
| ! | Target region (US / UK / EU / AU / NZ / SG) | This account has left its location field empty. Region is unknown and must not be claimed. | required |
| ✓ | Like rate ≥ 0.5% of views | 1.89% like rate, 0.176% comment rate, averaged per post. | integrity |
| ✓ | Average is not one viral outlier (YouTube limit 11×) | Top post is 4.0× the median, within the normal spread for YouTube, so the average reflects repeatable performance. | integrity |
| ✓ | Comment volume matches the view counts | Median 52 comments against 472 median likes: a normal ratio. | integrity |
| ✓ | views plausible for the subscribers count | 52,524 average views against 128,000 subscribers (41%). | integrity |

| ✓ | Verified against the platform's own published feed | 6 video(s) cross-checked against YouTube's official RSS feed for this channel. View counts agree to within 0.0%, likes to within 0.0%. Two independent sources, same numbers. | integrity |
| ✓ | An independent creator, not a company's own channel | Nothing marks this as a company-run channel: it is not a known company account, the name carries no corporate designation, and the bio is not written in a company's voice. | required |
| – | Same person confirmed on other platforms | No other public profile was linked from this account, so this record covers one platform only. | not published |
