This slice holds 269 of the 387 signals on the Documentary / History niche board — 70% of it.

How this market plays the niche
This board is the English / Global slice of the Documentary / History niche board: 269 signals (70% of the niche's 387) from 99 channels, median pace 3,208 views/day, median reach 10.6× views per subscriber and median 354K views. The strongest is “Step into a peaceful village world where family, nature and traditional life come together…” from Dewdrop Hearth (82894 views/day, 210.2× its audience).
Against the whole niche, this market runs cooler on the same kind of content — median pace 3,208 views/day versus 3,333 for the niche overall, with median reach 10.6× against 14.5× (-4.0×), and 1 minutes longer at the median. Read that carefully before copying anything: a higher multiplier in a thinner market usually means fewer competing uploads, not a better format. A market with 269 tracked signals is a small sample, so treat these numbers as a direction, then verify against the actual videos listed below.
Title-level hooks in this slice break down as statement / cold open 132, number / list hook 41, authority claim hook 18, curiosity gap hook 18. The production choices that repeat are no-face format (no host on camera) (269), ai historical reenactment (period visuals) (171), single-sitting long-form (30min+) (123), ai-generated visuals declared in the title (35). Hooks are counted from the titles of the 269 signals on this board, not guessed from framing, so they show what this market's sellers actually lead with. If a hook type dominates here but barely appears in the English-language boards, that gap is usually the most copyable thing on the page.
How to use it: open the top three videos in two or three tabs and compare their first 30 seconds against the English versions of the same topic. Same structure with a different hook means the format travels; a different structure means the market has its own grammar and you are better off copying the local one. This board reflects the September 2026 snapshot and is regenerated from the scraped dataset on every build.

Hook types and production choices are rule-based inferences from each video's title, duration and market — not frame-level analysis of the footage. The label row is not an input: those labels are written by this site, so using them as evidence would be circular. Use them to shortlist, then verify in the video itself. Source: rule-based inference from title + duration + market (hookType / openingSeconds / structure / repeatableChoices); provenance: api metrics + metadata only, no frame-level video analysis.
