    "context": "Price on expected views over the first 30 days, not on subscriber count — subscribers are a vanity proxy that overprices dormant channels and underprices evergreen ones. Niche multiplies the base rate: B2B, finance, and software sponsors regularly pay two to four times the entertainment rate for the same audience size because their customer lifetime value is far higher.",
    "methodology": "Rates derive from the flat CPM model used in the RevenueLab sponsorship calculators, calibrated against reported 2026 creator deals across niches. Ranges exclude usage rights, exclusivity, and whitelisting, which typically add 20–100%.",
