Is this the "most viewed video in 24 hours" record?
No. Record lists count how many views a video gained in its first 24 hours, usually for music premieres. This board asks a different question: of the videos published in the last 24 hours, which already have the most views right now? It is refreshed daily, so it is a picture of what took off today, not an all-time record.
How is this list of YouTube videos ranked?
Only YouTube videos published in the last 24 hours qualify. They are sorted by the view count Kabo recorded on its latest daily pass, highest first, and the board keeps the top 50.
Where does the data come from?
From YouTube's own most-popular chart for the United States plus daily topic searches, with view counts read from the official YouTube Data API. Every number shown was observed by Kabo's own daily collection; figures that a third-party data provider reports about a video are not used for ranking. Thumbnails and titles link back to the original YouTube page.
Which country does this board cover?
The United States. Kabo's discovery pass currently runs with the US region setting only, so a video that is huge in India or Brazil but not surfacing in US discovery will not be here. Boards for more countries are planned once this one proves useful.
How often is it updated?
Once a day, around 12:30 UTC. The snapshot date is printed above the table; if the last snapshot is more than two days old the page says so instead of pretending to be current. This is a daily board, not a live feed.
Is the full board free?
Yes. All rows, titles, creators and view counts are open to everyone with no signup. The Analyze button sends a video to Kabo's free YouTube Video Analyzer, which has a small daily limit per visitor and a free account for more.
