About Video Speeder

Video Speeder was born out of a simple frustration: YouTube only lets you speed up videos to 2x. Netflix caps at 1.5x. Most educational platforms top out at 2x. That's not enough when you're trying to get through a 3-hour lecture or catch up on a show.

So we built Video Speeder: a clean, focused Chrome extension that gives you 0.25x–4x speed control on any HTML5 video, anywhere on the web. No ads, no tracking, no premium tier. Just a slider, preset buttons, and customizable keyboard shortcuts.

Today, Video Speeder is rated 4.6 out of 5 stars with over 20,000 reviews. Students speed through lectures, developers scan tutorials, binge-watchers catch up on shows, and professionals review recordings — all faster, on their own terms.

Our Values

Always Free

Video Speeder is and will remain 100% free. No premium tiers, no feature gates, no ads, no in-app purchases. Speed control shouldn't cost money.

Privacy First

Zero data collection. The extension only requests activeTab permission — the minimum needed to interact with the video player. We can't see what you watch because we don't track anything.

Lightweight & Focused

One job, done well. No bloat, no feature creep, no unnecessary permissions. A compact popup with a slider and preset buttons — that's all you need.

Universal Compatibility

Works on every website with HTML5 video. YouTube, Netflix, Amazon Prime, Disney+, Twitch, Udemy, and thousands more. Available on Chrome, with more browsers coming.
