Skipit spots distressing scenes in what you're streaming and gives you a heads-up before they play. Skip the scene, or read a short summary and keep going. It's free for everyone right now.
Three steps. Total control.
Add Skipit to Chrome. Works on Netflix, YouTube, Disney+ and Paramount+.
Eleven categories, 46 triggers. Set each one to Off, Notify, or Skip.
When a scene matches, skip it or read a short summary. You stay in the story.
A heads-up, right before the scene.
Skipit watches a few seconds ahead and surfaces a card before a flagged moment plays. It shows the category, how long the scene runs, and where the warning came from. You get a countdown to decide, then skip it or keep watching. If you don't choose, Skipit pauses and waits. Nothing plays until you decide.
An argument between two characters turns into a brief physical fight. No injuries are shown.

Titles in the catalogue today.
Scene counts come straight from what ships in the extension. If a title you care about is not here yet, that is exactly why joining now matters.
What you get today.
All of it free, the moment you install.
Each card carries its source, so you can weigh a warning before you act on it rather than taking it on trust. Detection nobody has confirmed says exactly that, and never skips on its own.
Narrow the warnings to the sources you trust most, or widen them to everything detection has flagged. One setting, changeable any time.
A one line summary, no detail about the scene, so you never lose the thread of the story. Turn it on per category.
Download my data and Delete all my data both sit in your account settings. The export is JSON, and deletion is permanent.
Every trigger is
its own switch.
Eleven categories, 46 triggers. Turn on what you need, leave the rest alone, and decide how Skipit responds to each one.
Notify shows a card just before the scene, so you choose. Skip jumps past it without asking.
Open a category and you get every trigger inside it as its own switch. Keep Violence on for gun violence and blood, but leave stalking off.
Apply your rules to live-action only. Animated films and shows stay on your dashboard untouched.
The category and trigger names came out of customer discovery with clinicians, advocates on our team, and mental health fellows. We kept rewriting them until they read plainly and without drama.
Spot something we missed?
Mark it as you watch.
Skipit’s catalog is built by a detection pipeline plus real people. When you mark a scene, it joins the review queue and helps correct what our model got wrong. Your marks make detection better, which means more titles we can stand behind.
Coming next: a full contributor program with claimed titles, trusted annotator status, and rewards you can keep or gift to partner organizations.
Marking a scene is tied to your Skipit account, so you sign in once before your first mark.
We’re early, and we’re not hiding it.
Skipit launches with about two dozen titles. Most of our scene data comes from our detection model, and people are checking it title by title. That means we’ll get some wrong, and we’d rather tell you that than pretend otherwise. If you hit a scene we missed or flagged badly, mark it.
Joining is free. You get every update as it lands. You can ask us to cover a film, ask for a trigger we do not have yet, and talk to the team directly rather than through a form.
Skipit is early, and for some people that matters more than it does for others. If a missed scene would cost you a lot, or you simply want something finished, Skipit will probably suit you better later than it does today. We would rather say that now than have you find it out mid-film. Tell us what you need and we will build toward it, because the people who need this most are the ones it has to work for.
Most people have had a scene they wish they could skip.
No platform lets them.

Trusted by clinicians
and the people who need it.
Skipit restores choice where trauma often removes it, allowing people to engage with media on their own terms. It extends agency beyond the therapy room, supporting regulation, awareness of triggers, and meaningful tracking of progress over time.

As someone who struggles with epilepsy, this would be a game changer, letting me enjoy movies or shows without fear of triggering a seizure.
I’d love to show my kids the shows and movies I loved growing up. So much media has things I don’t want them seeing or hearing at their age. Excited for this.
