Glimpse - Distilled Internet

by•
Glimpse turns long YouTube videos into short, visual summaries. Search for a YouTube video link and get a clear summarised infographic covering the video, within a minute. Each infographic is laid out with structure, hierarchy, and comparisons you can scan at a glance. A 30-minute video becomes a 30-second scan - you don't have to spend hours to gain information. Glimpse has a Discover feed. It's the antidote to mindless scrolling. Instant information. Your scroll time finally counts.

The idea for Glimpse came from a simple frustration: too much time spent watching videos, too little actually retained. Even at 2x speed, videos still forced viewers through intros, sponsor reads, and recaps before getting to the actual point. The information was there, it just took far too long to reach. That gap, between how long a video takes and how much it actually says, is the reason Glimpse exists. The goal was never to replace watching entirely, but to give people a way to know what a video says before deciding whether it's worth the full watch.

Would love a way to save infographics into themed collections so I can build up a little library around topics I'm researching, instead of losing them in the feed.

How well does it handle videos that rely heavily on visual demos or code walkthroughs, where the spoken summary alone might miss the actual content being shown on screen?
