Boilerplate #

ParentFilter is a playback-time content filter for families: it skips, mutes or blurs the moments a household chooses while a film plays, and never creates an altered copy of any media. It works best on a film that’s mostly fine, with a few moments a family would rather skip — it softens a film, it doesn’t remake one. On any television, a phone guide counts down to each moment and the parent uses their own remote; in a desktop browser, a Chrome extension applies the household's choices to the official player, and a notice opens every filtered playback. Rating a film builds its parent guide; scene guides exist for films in our library — those a family has analyzed and shared, or that we have analyzed — and nothing filters until the household says so. ParentFilter is published by All Things Considered LLC (Kansas, USA) and is an independent product, not affiliated with any streaming service. Patent pending.

The film #

ParentFilter in 66 seconds — no voice-over, so it needs no dubbing; English titles on screen, captions in the player. Download the cuts from the press kit (by request), or embed nothing: the film lives only on this site and on our YouTube channel, because this site runs no cross-site trackers and never will.

Footage: Big Buck Bunny © 2008 Blender Foundation · www.bigbuckbunny.org · CC BY 3.0 — cut, blurred and muted to show the product; the settings shown are invented samples and the film contains none of that content. The Blender Foundation is not affiliated with and does not endorse ParentFilter.

Fact sheet #

What it does: Skips, mutes or blurs chosen moments while a film plays. Never an altered copy; never a decrypted stream; never a viewing history.
What it suits: A film that’s mostly fine, with a few moments a family would rather skip. A film made for adults would lose too much to suit young children. Any guide can miss a moment that’s over in an instant, or mark something harmless, and in a film full of fights or gunfire it will miss many.
Where: A phone guide beside any TV (paid plans, films that have a guide; easiest with ad-free playback — with ads, you pause it during the breaks); a Chrome extension for streaming playback on ad-free plans — on one streaming service, named on its store page, on the Full plan, and only on films that already have a guide — a scene guide, or a language guide that mutes swearing and nothing else; a browser analyzer and a free desktop player for films a family owns.
Free account: Rating films and looking up report cards, no card required; parent guide pages need no account. Plans carry the prices — none are printed here because they can change.
Where guides come from: Rating a film builds its parent guide. Scene guides exist for films in our library — those a family has analyzed and shared, or that we have analyzed. Check whether a film has one.
The legal shape: Playback-time filtering at a household member's direction on an authorized copy or stream, with no fixed altered copy ever created — the shape the Family Movie Act of 2005 protects. How we rate · Privacy.
