Projection assumes a constant linear growth rate. In practice, growth often accelerates with viral clips or raids, and slows between streams. Use this as a conservative baseline.

How the calculation works

The projector uses a simple linear model: weeks to milestone = (target − current) ÷ weekly growth. This gives a conservative baseline — growth often accelerates with viral clips, raids, or algorithm boosts.

Your weekly growth rate (new followers per week) is available in Twitch Analytics → Channel Analytics, filtered to the last 7 days. For YouTube, check YouTube Studio → Analytics → Subscribers.

Frequently asked questions

Where do I find my weekly follower growth?

On Twitch: Creator Dashboard → Analytics → Channel Analytics → set date range to last 7 days → look at the follower gain. On YouTube: YouTube Studio → Analytics → Audience tab → Subscribers.

Why is my projection so far out?

Linear projections at low growth rates can look discouraging, but growth is rarely linear. A single viral clip, a host from a larger streamer, or consistent streaming can spike your weekly growth significantly. Use this as a floor, not a ceiling.

Does Twitch Affiliate require exactly 50 followers?

Yes — 50 total followers on your channel (all-time), plus 3 avg CCV, 7 unique stream days, and 500 minutes broadcast — all in the last 30 days except the follower count.

What's the YouTube milestone at 1,000 subscribers?

YouTube requires 1,000 subscribers AND either 4,000 public watch hours in the past 12 months or 10 million public Shorts views in the past 90 days to apply for the YouTube Partner Program.
