// Frequently asked questions
Q01How is the ad revenue estimate calculated?
Monthly revenue = average views per video × videos per month × (RPM ÷ 1,000). RPM is what you actually earn per 1,000 views after YouTube’s cut, which is lower than CPM.
Q02What RPM should I use?
Start with the niche default, then adjust. Finance, insurance, and business niches can exceed $20 RPM; entertainment and gaming often sit at $2–6. Your real RPM depends on audience geography and season.
Q03Why compare cloud tools to a one-time app?
Per-minute cloud AI rendering is a recurring cost that scales with your output. A one-time desktop app has a fixed cost, so the more you publish, the faster owning it pays off. The payback figure shows that crossover point.
Q04Are these numbers guaranteed?
No - they are planning estimates. Treat them as a directional model for decisions, not a revenue promise.
