@alim.ventures Competitors: 5 Channels Like This Startup Investing Creator

The competitor set scraped for @alim.ventures is honestly a bit of a mixed bag, and that's worth saying upfront. A pure thematic match would be other startup/investing channels, but the algorithm-adjacent set the scraper pulled includes gaming creators and education channels too. That tells you something about where alim.ventures actually shows up in the recommendation graph — probably because at 35,400 subs and 391 videos, the channel's audience signal overlaps with general "self-improvement / make money / learn a skill" viewership rather than a tight VC-Twitter crowd. So when you read the comparisons below, weight the business-adjacent ones (@cutethingschannel98, @Bobykgrow, @Toppscholars) more than the gaming ones for actual competitive overlap.

@cutethingschannel98 (32,700 subs) is the closest content sibling on paper — small business ideas, beginner-friendly framing, "find the perfect business idea that matches your talents." The interesting tell is the video count: 53 total. Compare that to alim's 391. Cutethings is either much newer or running a much lower-volume strategy where each upload is meant to do heavy lifting. Subscribers-per-video lands around 617 for cutethings vs roughly 90 for alim.ventures. That ratio suggests cutethings catches a few breakout videos and rides them, while alim.ventures is doing the slower compounding play. Follow cutethings if you want curated business-idea content; stick with alim if you want the deeper build/invest framing.

@Bobykgrow (29,700 subs, 35 videos) is a Hindi-speaking YouTube growth channel out of India. The overlap with alim.ventures isn't topical — it's audiencial. People learning to build a business on YouTube are also often learning how YouTube itself works. With only 35 videos and nearly 30K subs, Boby is running an even tighter version of the cutethings strategy: 849 subs per video on average. That's genuinely impressive and probably means a couple of videos took off hard. The catch is regional and linguistic — if alim.ventures is publishing in English to a global startup audience, Boby is a different market entirely. Worth watching as a meta-lesson, not a direct competitor.

@Toppscholars (29,200 subs, 1,500 videos) is the volume play taken to an extreme. Educational content for students, India-based, almost four times the video count of alim.ventures with fewer subs. That's a 19 subs-per-video ratio, which tells you Toppscholars is leaning on long-tail search traffic — lots of videos, each catching some specific student query. Not a content competitor to alim.ventures, but a useful contrast for thinking about strategy. If alim ever wanted to add a long-tail educational layer ("how to register an LLC," "what is a SAFE note"), Toppscholars is the model for how much volume that takes.

@MindlessPixels (32,700 subs, 374 videos) and @ggrewind (32,800 subs, 1,500 videos) are the two gaming channels in the set. MindlessPixels does Minecraft shorts; ggrewind is games and video editing out of Ukraine. Neither is a real content competitor to a startup channel. Their presence in the scraped set probably reflects shared audience demographics (younger viewers, English-speaking, casual learners) more than topical overlap. The one observation worth pulling from ggrewind: 1,500 videos to 32,800 subs is a 22-per-video ratio, very similar to Toppscholars. Both look like high-volume, shorts-heavy strategies. That's a different game than what alim.ventures appears to be playing.

If you watch @alim.ventures, the natural follow-ons are @cutethingschannel98 for adjacent business-idea content and any pure-play startup channel you can find outside this list — the scraped set is honestly thin on direct topical competitors, which itself is useful information. It suggests the build-and-invest-in-startups niche on YouTube isn't crowded with mid-sized creators in the 30-50K range. That's either a moat for alim.ventures or a sign the niche caps out smaller than the channel might want. Hard to tell from outside.
