BaitBuster Autor: Grenade Catcher

Clickbait works by asking a question and making you watch twelve minutes for the answer. BaitBuster answers it in one click.

Hover any YouTube video title and a small burst appears. Click it, and BaitBuster reads the video's own captions and answers the question the title (and thumbnail) is really asking. "How much does it REALLY cost?" gets a number. "Only ONE is worth buying" gets the name. "10 foods to avoid" gets the ten foods. Then laugh at the disappointing answer, or watch the video — your choice.

THE PART THAT CHANGES THINGS
Every busted video is free to the whole world, forever. When anyone busts a video, the answer is kept and shown to every other BaitBuster user who meets that video — free, instantly, no account. On videos that are already busted, the burst shows all the time: a visible sign a free answer is waiting.

WHAT IT COSTS
Reading answers is free, always. Busting a brand-new video costs a fraction of a cent of AI time, covered either by a BaitBuster pass ($15 once, for a year — NOT a subscription, nothing renews) or by your own OpenRouter key (your browser calls OpenRouter directly; the key never leaves it). A pass is meant to be shared with friends.

HONEST ABOUT AI
Answers come from the video's captions, not from the AI's imagination. A second, independent AI model re-checks shared answers, every answer takes thumbs votes, and the full video is always one click away. BaitBuster hides nothing and blocks nothing — no ads are touched.

PRIVACY, PLAINLY
Nothing about you is sent anywhere. Scrolling YouTube sends nothing at all. Clicking the burst sends the video's title and captions to our server so the answer can be made and shared. No account, no analytics, no trackers. Full policy: https://ironmedia.com/baitbuster/privacy
