About SkipBait

SkipBait is a Chrome extension that adds an intelligence layer to YouTube, available at whatever stage in your usual YouTube flow. It sits on top of YouTube's interface everywhere: on every thumbnail in the home feed, search, and channel pages, and in a dedicated side panel on the watch page. The "More" button on thumbnails lets you stream a preview and check out the honest title or outline before committing. The Outline and Chat features are right there in the side panel. Revisit a timestamped outline to find that one moment, extract action items, or dig deeper with AI. See Product demo here. Unlike generic AI summarisers, SkipBait is built specifically for YouTube's ecosystem: it rewrites clickbait titles into honest ones, extracts grounded action items backed by web sources, and gives you an AI chat that can go beyond the video. SkipBait is for the people who kept YouTube when they quit everything else but still want to use it on their own terms.
