I built something I genuinely needed.
I kept opening YouTube videos, watching 10 minutes, then realizing they were just filler dressed up as content. Same info repeated 4 times, 3-minute intros, nothing I couldn't have gotten in 2 sentences.
So I built Focal. You paste a video (or just hit the extension button on YouTube), it reads the transcript and tells you: WATCH, SKIM, or SKIP — with actual reasons why. Timestamped bullets, density score, the moments that actually matter.
3 days into launch on TinyLaunch and people are using it way more than I expected. Turns out a lot of us have the same relationship with YouTube.
If you've ever watched a 20-minute video and felt robbed — go try it. And if you like what we're doing, an upvote on TinyLaunch would genuinely mean a lot right now, it's early days.

Hi I'm Steve, building Focal: a productivity tool that helps save time on Youtube by providing a verdict before you're hooked.
Happy to be here. Let's connect.
