My story
Why I built Skipit
Hey, I'm Wahib and I love movies; but I kept running into scenes I genuinely didn't want to see. I was tired of fast-forwarding blindly, or just turning the show off.
I started sharing timestamps with friends in DMs. “Skip from 12:43 to 13:20.” so they could skip them too.
That got me thinking: What if this was automatic? What if there was a shared library of skips, and the player just skipped them as you watched?
I looked around. The best option out there charged $99.99/year which felt absurd to me.
So I built Skipit.

What Skipit stands for
Three simple ideas behind every skip you watch
Community-driven
Every skip comes from a real viewer who saw the scene. The community verifies, votes, and improves accuracy together.
Open-source
Skipit extension is open-source on GitHub. Contributions are welcome!
Free forever
No subscriptions and no paywalls.
Skipit is free and will stay that way.
A huge thank you to everyone who marks scenes, votes on skips, and helps make Skipit better for the next viewer.
