How to pitch Black Hat, step by step
- 1
Check that your channel fits
Black Hat sponsors channels of 10K–100K subscribers most often, across tech/gadgets, ai/software tools. If your size band says "Rarely" or "Not seen" above, pitch with a strong reason it fits your audience, or start with a brand that already sponsors channels like yours.

Same niche, similar reach.
Counts cover sponsored videos published in the last year, detected from public YouTube data via the official YouTube Data API.

A detected sponsorship is not confirmation of fees or contract terms, and does not mean Black Hat is currently taking new creators.
