The Solution

The only tool that judges videos
before you watch them

Pareto analyzes every video and shows you scores, summaries, and timestamps right on YouTube thumbnails. Filter what's worth your time — without clicking.

How It Works

From thumbnail to takeaway in seconds

01

Know Before You Click

Every thumbnail gets a grade from P+ to F based on actual content value. Hover for the full story: see exactly what the video covers, key topics, and why it earned that score. Decide in seconds what took others 40 minutes to realize.

The 10-Second Filter

Get the verdict before watching. One sentence that tells you exactly what you'll learn, who it's for, and whether it's worth YOUR time. Like advice from an expert friend.

Watch this to learn X. Otherwise, skip it.

Software Engineer · ★★★★★

Was skeptical at first, but after 2 weeks I can't browse YouTube without it. Saved me from so many clickbait tutorials. The grades are surprisingly accurate for tech content.

Grad Student · ★★★★☆

The timestamps feature is what I actually use most. I skip straight to the parts I need for my research. Grading can be a bit harsh on some educational videos though.

James R.

Decent concept. The grades are sometimes questionable — gave an F to a video I found useful. The summary cards are actually the best part, wish that was the main feature.

Analyzed 60+ videos this month. The hub is a game changer for organizing everything. I find my notes in seconds now. Worth every penny of premium.

E
Emma T.
Product Manager · ★★★★☆

Really useful for business/startup content. Works great for educational stuff, less so for entertainment. The quick take feature saves me the most time honestly.

Freelancer · ★★★★☆

Does what it says. Not perfect but I check the score before every video now. Would love to customize the grading criteria for my niche (design tutorials).
