Is the SEO Grader free?

Yes. Free, no signup, no rate limit (5 grades per hour anonymous; submit email for 20/hr). The full PDF audit with side-by-side rewrites is email-gated.

How does the grader work?

9 deterministic checks scored 0–100: title length / keyword placement / hook strength / format hygiene / description depth / chapter timestamps / hashtag usage / links / thumbnail. Combined into a single A–F grade.

Does it work for Hindi / Hinglish videos?

Yes. Hindi-Latin action words (kaise, kya, sirf, bina, sahi, jaldi, etc.) count toward hook strength. Title length thresholds are unicode-aware.

Why don't I get a YouTube Analytics-style CTR number?

CTR requires YouTube Studio access (only the channel owner can see it). The grader scores publish-time signals — what every viewer sees on the SERP — so it works on any video, yours or a competitor's.

How is this different from running it through ChatGPT?

ChatGPT gives generic SEO advice. The Grader is calibrated against actual YouTube SERP rules (chapter min 3, hashtag max 15, description ranking weight at 200 words) and built for Indian-language inputs.
