How Pro YouTubers Do It
Be Specific in Your Prompts
Top creators write detailed prompts: 'productivity tips for remote workers who struggle with focus' beats 'productivity tips'. Specificity yields better insights.
Use Deep Research for Content Planning
Run Deep Research at the start of each month to generate a full content calendar. The AI connections between topics often reveal series opportunities.
Pay Attention to Audience Psychology
The audience insights section reveals emotional triggers and pain points. Pros use these to craft hooks and CTAs that actually convert.
Combine Multiple Research Reports
Run Deep Research on 3-4 related topics and look for themes that appear across all of them—those are your highest-opportunity areas.

Common Mistakes to Avoid
Why it hurts: Generic prompts like 'fitness' return generic insights you could have guessed yourself.
Do this instead: Include your target audience, their problems, and what makes your angle unique.
Why it hurts: Trending themes show what's gaining momentum—missing these means missing timely opportunities.
Do this instead: Check if any trending themes align with your niche and consider creating timely content.
Why it hurts: Research has a shelf life. Insights about current trends become stale within weeks.
Do this instead: Create content based on Deep Research findings within 2-3 weeks while insights are fresh.
