MACHINE HOUSE LABS — 1 LIVE · 1 IN BUILD

We make content for a living — and software because we can.

Machine House is a creative technology studio. The prediction models, the production systems, the games — same workshop. Labs is the shelf for the things we build that anyone can use. Everything on it is free.

What's live, what's in build.

LAB-001

TubeCount

Live

A daily game: see a real YouTube thumbnail, guess the view count. Three guesses — the title and channel unlock as clues — then the reveal shows exactly how far off you were. Play long enough and you earn an eye rating: a number on the packaging instinct this whole industry runs on.

LAB-002

YouTube CPM calculator — India

In build

What a view actually pays in India. Every earnings calculator online assumes American CPMs — useless if your audience is in Mumbai, not Minnesota. This one is built on Indian rates, by niche, so creators can do the math on their real channel.

02 / Why a lab

Most studios buy their tools. We build ours.

Machine House was built half studio, half workshop. The systems behind Warikoo's and Masoom's shows — guest filtering, content intelligence, performance prediction — were all written in-house. Building software isn't a side project here; it's how the client work gets done.

So a lab was inevitable. Some of what we build is only useful to our clients. Some of it — a game about view counts, a calculator for Indian CPMs — is useful to everyone, so we release it. When something new ships, it shows up on this page first.

This is what we build for fun. The day job is better.
