The highlights of every YouTube video.

Clip-Skip watches the video. You watch what matters. Tell it roughly how much time you have — we'll get you a version that fits.

The problem

Every video has the good part.

Most videos also have the twenty minutes around it — the intro, the sponsor read, the tangent, the recap of the recap. Clip-Skip finds the part you came for and skips the rest.

How it works

Four steps. No reading required.

01

Pick a duration

Let the AI decide, or tell it what you're working with — five minutes, ten, whatever fits your day.

02

It builds your version

Clip-Skip reads the video and picks the segments most worth your time — the stuff people would clip and send you.

03

Watch it, your way

Auto-skip through filler, jump between chapters, pause the skipping whenever you want to see more.

04

It joins the library

Every video you process helps build a shared library of compacted videos — anonymously.

Three things you'll notice right away

This isn't a summary. It's the video.

Choose your viewing time

Several versions of the same video, at different lengths. You decide how deep to go today, not the AI.

Real playback, not a wall of text

The actual video, auto-skipping to the good parts, with chapters you can jump between anytime.

Why Clip-Skip

Four things that make it different

Time back, not homework

You watch the real footage, compacted — not a bullet list you read instead of watching.

Your own AI key, if you use one, never leaves your browser. No transcripts stored. No behavioral tracking.

🌐

Processed once, useful to all

Every video you process can save the next person the wait — and theirs can do the same for you.

Common questions

Got questions? We've got answers.

How accurate is the compression?
Clip-Skip uses AI to identify the most relevant parts of a video. It's a best-effort approach — some nuance may be missed, especially in highly subjective videos. Think of it like match highlights: you get the key moments, not every detail.
Can I choose exactly how long?
You can tell Clip-Skip roughly how much time you have, and it'll build the closest version it can. Actual duration varies based on the video structure and the AI model used — usually within about 15% of your target.
Does this work on every video?
Clip-Skip works on most YouTube videos with transcripts available. Some videos (live streams, audio-only content) may not compress well or at all. The Community Library helps — popular videos are often already processed and ready to watch.
Where is my API key stored?
Your API key for BYOK (Bring Your Own Key) is encrypted and stored only in your browser. It never leaves your device or touches our servers. We never see it.
Can I use GPT, Claude, or other models?
With BYOK, yes — you can use any AI model you have API access to, through any provider. On our paid plans, we use a curated set of efficient models that give good quality at reasonable cost.
Can I cancel anytime?
Yes. Cancel your subscription at any time — no long-term commitment. Remaining credits stay usable until the end of your current billing period. See our Refund Policy for details.
Is the Community Library anonymous?
Completely. Your identity is never shown on any library contribution. Videos you process are shared anonymously — others see the compacted video, not who created it.
What if I want to delete my account?
You can delete your account anytime. Your personal data (email, password, history) is permanently removed. Library contributions remain to keep the shared library intact for other users, but they're no longer connected to your identity.

Stop budgeting an hour for a video you have ten minutes for.

Overview

Clip-Skip is a Chrome extension that compresses YouTube videos using AI. We collect minimal data and give you full control over your privacy.

Data We Collect

Account data: Email, password (encrypted), subscription status. Video data: URLs, AI-identified chapters with timestamps, duration. Local only: Your API key (if BYOK) stays encrypted in your browser, never sent to us.

Community Library

Every video you process is added to our Community Library anonymously. Your identity is never shown. After 30 days, library entries are no longer listed publicly, but remain accessible to you personally. If you delete your account, your personal data is permanently removed, but the underlying library data persists under a pseudonymous ID to keep the library intact.

Your Rights

You can request access, correction, deletion, or export of your data. Contact support@clip-skip.com.

Community Library Policy

What Gets Published

Every video you process is automatically added to the Community Library (no opt-out). The library stores: video references, thumbnails, durations, and chapter/timestamp breakdowns. We never store transcripts or personal info.

Privacy

Your identity is never shown on any library entry. There's no username, profile link, or attribution.

Access Tiers

Anonymous: up to 10 videos/day under 20 minutes. Free (BYOK): unlimited under 30 minutes, free-tier content only. Paid tier: full access. Viewing a paid-created video costs 0.1 credit once per video.

Duration & Deletion

Videos remain listed publicly for 30 days, then are hidden from other users but stay in your personal history indefinitely. Deleting your account removes your personal data but keeps the video records pseudonymized for the library.
