Skip or Watch

Know if a video is worth it before you click.

Skip or Watch adds a card to every YouTube thumbnail: views, likes and what commenters say, and, one click away, a short AI summary with a 1–5 score.

Coming soon to the Chrome Web Store

3 free summaries a day. No card needed.

How it works

  1. Hover a thumbnail

    Views, likes, likes per 100 views and the top comments appear at once. No AI, no account, no cost.

  2. Press Summarize

    Sign in with Google and get a 3–5 line summary, a 1–5 score and the points commenters keep making.

  3. Skip or watch

    Decide in seconds instead of ten minutes into the video.

A score from the video, not from our taste

The same video gets the same score for everyone. It never changes with what you like or watch. It weighs four things:

  • How much the video says for its length.
  • Whether it delivers what the title promises.
  • How many viewers liked it, per 100 views.
  • What commenters complain about or praise.

No captions? The score then comes from comments and stats only, and the card says so.

Questions

Is this made by YouTube?

No. Skip or Watch is an independent product by Frisble, not affiliated with or endorsed by YouTube or Google.

What do you send to your server?

Nothing while you hover. When you press Summarize, the extension sends that video's title, stats, transcript and top comments so the AI can read them. We keep the summary, never the transcript.

Which languages does it speak?

The card and the summary follow your browser's language.

How do I cancel Pro?

Click the Skip or Watch icon in Chrome's toolbar, then Manage subscription. Pro stays on until the end of the period you paid for.

Can I get a refund?

Yes, in full within 14 days of your first payment. Write to info@frisble.com.
