Research is half the job

1of10 is genuinely good at what it does. It surfaces outlier thumbnails and titles across a large library, and if your question is “what is working in my niche right now”, it answers that better than we do.

Then it hands you a screenshot and you go and open a design tool.

For a channel publishing once a week, that gap is a minor annoyance. For an operator publishing daily across several channels it is the whole bottleneck — the research is cheap and the production is expensive.

Braiv Thumbnails covers the production half. It generates candidate thumbnails from your own video timeline, scores each one for composition, text legibility and title match, and publishes the winner to any connected channel.

What a month of output looks like

On the Business plan at $70/month:

  • 5,400 AI credits, covering 180 thumbnail generations a month
  • Rollover to 16,200 credits, so unused capacity is not lost
  • Unlimited channel connections
  • Overage at $0.60 per 60 credits if you go past the allowance
  • Plus 100 hours of managed video, dubbing into 10 languages and 540 shorts generations on the same plan

Pro at $35/month covers 90 thumbnails and 10 channels; Starter at $12/month covers 20 thumbnails and 3 channels. Full detail on pricing.

Scoring your work, not just other people’s

The useful part of thumbnail research is knowing why something worked. Braiv applies that to your own assets: every generated or uploaded thumbnail gets a click-through score with feedback on composition, whether the text is legible at feed size, and whether the image and title are telling the same story.

That gives you a reason to pick one thumbnail over another before it goes live, rather than after.

Use both, honestly

Plenty of channels run 1of10 for research and Braiv for production, and that is a reasonable stack. If you are choosing one, the question is whether your bottleneck is knowing what to make or actually making it.

If it is production, start with Braiv Thumbnails.

Frequently asked questions
Does Braiv replace 1of10 for research?
Not entirely. 1of10 has a deeper searchable library of what has performed on other channels, and it is the better tool if competitor research is the job. Braiv scores your own thumbnails for composition, legibility and title match, then generates and publishes them, which is the step 1of10 leaves to you.
How many thumbnails does a plan include?
The Business plan includes 5,400 AI credits a month, which covers 180 thumbnail generations. Unused credits roll over to a maximum of 16,200, and generation beyond the allowance is billed at $0.60 per 60 credits.
Can I use it across several channels?
Yes. Business allows unlimited channel connections, Pro connects 10 and Starter connects 3. Agencies and multi-channel operators typically run everything from a single Business workspace.
What does it cost?
Starter is $12/month, Pro is $35/month and Business is $70/month at list price, with regional pricing applied automatically. The same subscription also covers dubbing, translation, shorts generation and publishing.
