JevTube
YouTube, minus the topics you type.
Only what you want to see. JevTube blurs matching videos on the home feed and in the Up next list, before you scroll past them.

Three example topics: phone reviews, K-pop fancams, workouts. Matching cards blur; hovering one shows why, and you can bring it back any time.
Three steps, then forget it's there
No sign-in, no setup. Open the popup, type a topic, go back to YouTube.
Type a topic
A word or a sentence, in any language. “crypto” works. So does “politicians arguing on TV”.
Matching videos blur
Each card is judged against your topics as it appears. Matches blur in place; nothing else moves.
Hover to see why
The popover names the topic that caught it. Show brings that one video back. Settings have blur or hide, six levels of sensitivity and one switch for all Shorts.
Describe it in your own words
A topic can be a whole sentence. JevTube gives a long one a short label for its chip, and still matches videos against everything you wrote.

Labels are written by a language model when you add the topic. To keep your own wording, open the chip's menu, choose Edit filter, then Show as full text.
Blur or hide, your choice
Both clips show the same feed with the same two topics. Switch between them under Method in Settings.
Blur
Matching videos stay where they are, blurred. Hover one to see which topic caught it, or show it again.
Hide
Matching videos are removed and the feed closes the gap. The popup's Blurred today list can bring one back.
What it doesn't do
A quiet tool should be easy to describe in full.
No account, nothing to set up. Install it and type.
Free for up to 2,000 videos a day per install. Past that, videos just show as usual until the next day.
It looks at the video cards on the page and each video's public description. Not what you watched, not who you are.
Titles and descriptions are judged and dropped. Our server keeps only daily counters. The privacy policy lists every detail.
The home feed and the Up next list, plus search results if you turn them on. The player, comments and the Shorts player stay as they are.
Light and dark, the same neutral greys as YouTube. The popup opens and closes like a native menu.
Fast enough to keep up with your scroll
JevTube runs on Jev, a decision model from TypeSafe. It reads the title, channel and description of each video and returns a probability for every topic you typed, so a screen of videos is judged in a single request that comes back in one to two seconds.
Each judgment is cheap, too. Judging a thousand videos against three topics costs us about six cents, which is why this YouTube filter can stay free.
Hide mode on the home feed, scrolled fast, at 1.7× speed. The counter in Settings is the real number of API calls.
Questions
What does it send off my computer?
For each video card it judges: the title, the channel name, the length badge, whether it is marked LIVE or is a Short, the first 200 characters of the search snippet when there is one, and the video's ID, together with the topics you typed. JevTube's server uses the ID to look up the video's public description, tags and category from YouTube, then sends the first 300 characters of the description with the rest to TypeSafe, which returns a probability per topic. No page URL, no cookies, nothing about your account. The privacy policy lists every field.
Does it work on Shorts?
On the Shorts shelves of the pages it works on, yes: each Short is judged by your topics like any other card. There is also one switch that blurs or hides every Short. The Shorts player itself (youtube.com/shorts/…) is not touched.
Which pages does it work on?
The home feed and the Up next list beside the video you're watching. Search results too, if you turn them on under Scope in Settings. The player, comments, the subscriptions page and the Shorts player stay as they are.
What happens past the daily limit?
Each install can have up to 2,000 video cards judged per day. Past that, videos just show as usual, the popup says so, and filtering resumes at midnight UTC on its own. Cards that were already judged stay blurred, since the results are cached.
Is it free?
Yes. Everything on this page is in the free plan. A Pro plan is planned but has no price and nothing to pay yet; see pricing.
Why judge titles instead of watching the video?
JevTube reads what the card already shows (title, channel, snippet and length) plus the description the uploader wrote. It does not download the video, look at the thumbnail or read captions. That keeps it fast and keeps the cost near zero.
Can I undo a blur?
Hover a blurred card and press Show; that one video comes back and stays visible. The popup's “Blurred today” list shows everything hidden on the current page, with a Show button per row.
It hid the wrong video, or missed one. How do I tell you?
Use the feedback form, or Send feedback at the bottom of Settings in the popup. A bug, an idea, or a video it got wrong all help; a link to the video and the topic you typed help most. No sign-in, and an email is only needed if you want a reply.
Does it work in Korean?
Topics can be typed in any language, including Korean, and Korean video titles are judged. The model is strongest in English, so Korean matches are somewhat less accurate. The popup's interface is English only for now.
Your feed, without the topics you picked.
