Streamlining content suitability default settings and inventory names starting in May 2026
Starting in May 2026, you’ll notice updated names for some inventory modes in your account settings.
Google is changing the names, so the exclusions, definitions for each tier and standards for monetisation will remain the same.
Maximum inventory (formerly ‘Expanded’)
Moderate inventory (formerly ‘Standard’)
Limited inventory (no change)
Starting in May 2026, Google will also be streamlining your experience and helping to maximise video performance for YouTube and Google video partners.
Accounts that have not selected a specific inventory mode will default to Maximum inventory, formerly known as ‘Expanded’.
