Working title: Kids Slop Report — a weekly audit of how much AI-generated content your child watched on YouTube, with one-tap blocking (working name)

Summary

BriefingHypothesis

New idea. Existence check: Searched 23 Oct 2026: YouTube Kids has an approved-content-only mode; Lantern and WhitelistVideo offer allow-list viewing; SlopMute and Orislop hide AI videos on YouTube. No product found that sends parents a weekly "AI slop share" report — but blocking already exists, so the gap is a feature.…

X: 1,046 posts/7d (Up 12% Sat→Thu (full UTC days: Sat 17 152 → Thu 22 171); peak Thu 22 171; Thu 22 is 0% below peak; window 2026-10-16 10:05–10:20 UTC (start varies by query) → 2026-10-23 10:00 UTC (X API 7-day limit; Fri 16 and Fri 23 are partial UTC days; full days Sat 17 → Thu 22)). Revenue hypothesis: ~$1K–$4K/month at month 6 (HYPOTHESIS: 500–1,500 subscribers × ~US$3 net).

DescriptionHypothesis

Read the rest

Pain: Children's feeds fill with AI-generated, low-quality videos; parents do not know how much and cannot review hours of history. Monetization: Free first report; subscription around US$3.99 / R$14.90 per month for weekly reports and block lists (hypothesis). Build: 1–2 agent-weeks (Google Takeout/YouTube history import or extension, AI-video classifier, report email, block-list export); stack: Next.js on Vercel; Chrome extension; video-metadata AI classifier; Postgres; Stripe/Pix. GTM: Shareable "my kid watched 38% AI videos" cards; parent groups; GEO for "AI videos for kids".

Target customer

Parents of children 3–12 who let them watch YouTube on a tablet or TV.

Pain

Children's feeds fill with AI-generated, low-quality videos; parents do not know how much and cannot review hours of history.

Why this score

Why it scored lower: YouTube adds an "AI content" filter for kids, erasing the product; access to watch history is clumsy.

MoatHypothesis

Weak: The report format is copyable. YouTube could ship it natively. Status: Hypothesis.

Jobs to be done

When my child watches YouTube unsupervised, I want to see how much of it is AI junk and block it fast, so I can feel in control of what my kid absorbs.
