Paste a handle, then choose a requested square output from 48 to 900 pixels. The 900-pixel option is this tool's largest button — not proof of the original upload resolution or YouTube's maximum.
Signed-in accounts don't have daily limits on Kabo's AI generators, video analyzer, account audits, and engagement lookups.
A handle like @mkbhd, or the full channel URL. Both work, and so does a handle without the @.
The profile picture comes straight from the channel's own page — no account, no permission from the channel needed, nothing stored.
Copy or download it. Use it as reference for your own work rather than as material — a channel's assets are its brand.
Use 800 × 800 when you want the high-resolution channel thumbnail documented by YouTube's Data API. The other buttons request the shown output dimensions from the same public image host. YouTube also documents a 240 × 240 medium thumbnail and an 88 × 88 default thumbnail, but it does not identify 900 × 900 as the stored original or a universal maximum. A returned pixel dimension does not prove how much source detail is available.
| Button | What the size means |
|---|---|
| 900 × 900 | A 900-pixel square rendition requested from YouTube's public image host; YouTube's API does not label it as the original or maximum. |
| 800 × 800 | Matches the high-resolution channel thumbnail documented by YouTube's Data API. |
| 176 × 176 | A smaller rendition requested by this tool for preview and reference. |
| 88 × 88 | Matches the default channel thumbnail documented by YouTube's Data API. |
| 48 × 48 | A compact rendition requested by this tool for checking whether the image still reads at a small size. |
YouTube documents 88 × 88 default, 240 × 240 medium, and 800 × 800 high channel thumbnails; Kabo's buttons request output dimensions and do not expose the original upload. YouTube Data API: Channels (checked September 1, 2026).
Building a competitor board is the common one — put twenty avatars from one niche side by side and the shared choices (face or logo, how much contrast, whether the name is legible small) become obvious in seconds. The other is checking your own: download yours at 48 pixels and look at it beside the channels you appear next to.
Saving a public avatar to study or reference it is ordinary research. Using it as your own channel picture is not — it is a trademark problem and, more immediately, impersonation, which YouTube removes channels for. Use them as reference, not as material.
This tool retrieves one public channel asset at a time. Kabo's peer-context cards preview a broader comparison workflow, but they do not continuously watch channels or report weekly performance today.
Paste the channel handle above and pick a size. The image comes from the channel's public page, so it works on any channel — you do not need to own it and no account is involved.
YouTube does not publish one universal largest stored original for public channel profile pictures. Its Data API documents an 800 × 800 high-resolution channel thumbnail. This tool's 900 × 900 button requests that output size from YouTube's public image host, but it cannot reveal the original upload resolution or guarantee more source detail than a smaller rendition.
Any public channel, yes. Channels that have been terminated or made private return nothing, which is correct rather than a bug.
Not as your own. A channel's avatar is its brand, and using it is both a trademark problem and impersonation — which YouTube removes channels for. As reference material for your own design work, it is ordinary practice.
Yes, unlimited, and no signup. It reads a public page and rewrites an image URL; there is nothing to meter.
