Help me find YouTubers
I’m looking for some advice on reaching 'mid-to-top tier' YouTubers for my new tool, YouScript.pro. We built an AI agent that clones a creator’s specific voice and style to handle their research and scriptwriting—solving the burnout problem without sacrificing their brand's personality—but I’m hitting a wall on where to find these busy creators. Since they are often too busy to browse forums and cold outreach can feel intrusive, I'm unsure where they go to look for workflow solutions. For those who have targeted the creator economy, how did you bridge the gap to get those first few serious conversations with established channels?

Can I ask you a question (I didn't quite understand): are you looking for advice on increasing your potential clients? Top bloggers, right?
If so, message me and I can help you. I have experience working with these guys.
yes that's right. find bloggers/ youtubers in the script heavy and research intensive niche. what's the best avenue for a direct chat with you?

Hey, I am Kalyan. I am running a youtube channel with 13.7k subscribers. I am also a tech company founder. Feel free to reach out to me to know more. I have connections with many regional content creators in India.
Hey Kalyan, appreciate your comment. I'd like to connect, what would be a great medium for you to chat ?
Great insights in your post! Finding early users and monitoring relevant conversations can definitely be a challenge.
I built a Chrome extension called PulseOfReddit that helps with exactly this - it tracks Reddit keywords and alerts you when relevant discussions pop up. It's helped me catch early conversations and validate ideas faster. Offering free access for the first 10 users if you want to try it out.

hey buddy, i'd love to give this a shot, seems helpful. am i one of the first 10 users?
Yes, absolutely I’d love for you to give it a try for free. You can install the extension directly from
pulseofreddit.com
It’s designed to be affordable, with premium plans starting at a very low rate if you decide you’d like to upgrade later. But there’s no pressure—the free version is genuinely useful on its own.
Great question! A few places where mid-to-top tier YouTubers actually hang out:
YouTube creator Discord servers - Many niches have private Discords where creators share tips. The education/explainer niche has several active ones. Getting invited usually requires knowing someone already in.
Twitter/X creator circles - Search for hashtags like #YouTubeCreator or #CreatorEconomy. Many creators are more active there than on YouTube itself. They often RT each other's growth tips.
Podcast guesting - Creators in the 100K-500K range often appear on podcasts about YouTube growth (like Creator Club, Think Media, etc). Reaching out through the podcast host can be warmer than cold DMs.
YouTube comments on their own videos - Sounds obvious, but many creators read comments on their first 24-48 hours of upload. A thoughtful comment showing you understand their content can open doors.
Collaboration matchmaking platforms - Sites like Collabs and FameBit connect brands with creators, but you could also position yourself as a service provider there.
The key insight: busy creators don't browse forums, but they DO consume content from other creators. Consider partnering with a smaller creator who already has relationships with bigger ones - they can make warm intros.
What's your target niche? Some verticals are more receptive than others.
this is lovely. thanks. my target niche is all those which are research intensive and script heavy. eg: education, finance, coach, how to use X, etc
which ones are more receptive?
