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.
Every warning tells you where it came from.
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.
Every warning carries its own status, so you always know how much weight to give it. We would rather say that here than in the small print, because a warning is only useful if you know how much to trust it. When someone has reviewed a scene, the warning will say so, and you will see the difference without going looking for it.
Three steps. Total control.
Add Skipit to Chrome. Works on Netflix, YouTube, Disney+ and Paramount+.
12 categories, 53 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.

Forty-four seconds on what Skipit does, and what it looks like while you are watching.
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.
Widen the warnings to everything our software has flagged, or narrow them to human-reviewed scenes only. 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.
12 categories, 53 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 covers a small catalogue of titles you can watch on Netflix, YouTube, Disney+ and Paramount+. Because only 1 of our 992 scenes has been through human review, 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.

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.
