y2meta
y2meta is a free set of checkers and spec references for YouTube creators, covering thumbnails, channel banners, Shorts and titles. The name is shared with a crowd of YouTube downloader sites, and this one says plainly that it never downloads or converts videos, and links each number it quotes back to YouTube Help.
Why it earned its spot
The headline is set in a tall, condensed ultramarine type that reads like thumbnail lettering, and a scatter of lavender, mint and peach squares on the left looks like pixels breaking loose. A mock thumbnail in the hero sits on a violet-to-amber gradient, and that gradient comes back on each tool card, so the page borrows the look of the thing it measures. Three large numerals give the site’s position before any tool is opened. Below them, a deep indigo band states the privacy promise in orange, and a quiet list of YouTube Help specs, each number in its own tinted chip, does the job of proof.

Sound Education turns words, minutes and audio settings into each other for podcasters, narrators, video scriptwriters and teachers. Every result prints the formula behind it, and gear specs come straight from manufacturers' sheets with a checked date — no reviews, no rankings, no blog.
Blobs makes the soft, irregular shapes designers drop behind headlines, photos and slide dividers, exporting each as an editable vector path rather than an image. Each shape's seed, node count and fill ride in the query string, so a blob is a link: paste the URL and the exact path rebuilds.
FishingHelps gives a daily bite forecast for any of 16,000+ US towns, folding solunar feeding windows and live weather into a single score. Its own about page calls solunar theory a folk model with mixed scientific support, which is rare candor from a site built on it.
BirdBench makes small, free tools for North American birders, from hummingbird nectar ratios to nest box dimensions. One of them ranks eBird hotspots by species count times months since anyone filed a checklist, surfacing the good patch everyone drives past.
