Know before you watch. Quick video summaries, right on YouTube thumbnails. Know before you watch. TL;DW adds a small button to YouTube thumbnails. Click it and you get a short summary, up to three key takeaways, and the timestamp of the section actually worth watching — without opening the video first. It answers one question: is this video worth my time? HOW IT WORKS • Hover any YouTube thumbnail and a small TL;DW button appears • Click it and a compact card opens with the summary • Jump straight to the useful section, or close it and move on Nothing is generated until you click. Hovering costs you nothing. WHERE IT WORKS The YouTube homepage, search results, your subscriptions feed, and recommended videos. WHAT YOU GET • A short summary of what the video actually covers • Up to three key points • The timestamp range worth watching, when there is one • An indicator of how much genuinely new information the video carries TL;DW is not a chatbot, a transcript reader, or another dashboard to manage. It is a small decision layer over YouTube, and it stays out of the way. PRICING Five free summaries per day. Unlimited for $4.99 per month. Your subscription comes with a licence key, so it works on every browser and every machine you use. There is no account, no password, and no sign-up. PRIVACY TL;DW sends only the video ID of videos you explicitly click on. It does not collect your browsing history, your search queries, your YouTube account, or any personal identifier. There is no analytics, advertising, or tracking of any kind. Full privacy policy: https://tldw.nl/privacy Summaries are AI-generated and can be inaccurate. Works with public YouTube videos.
