Happy Friday, everyone.
Last night I ran a poll about video description — something blind people have been asking for for years . There are a few solutions out there, but nothing that’s really taken off in a simple, accessible way.
So… I finally built what I should have built a long time ago.
It’s a straightforward web-based tool designed for blind users:
Paste in a YouTube link → press a button → get a clear text description of what’s happening in the video.
No complicated setup. No learning curve. Just simple and useful.
Now, I know many people prefer AI-generated voices (I do too). But to keep this affordable and scalable, I’m starting with text-only. Adding voice right now would significantly increase costs — likely pushing this into the $50/month range — and my goal is to keep it accessible to as many people as possible.
Here’s the deal:
I’m opening this up to a small group of early testers first.
To get access, you’ll need to be one of my Facebook subscribers. That’s where I’m building and supporting this community.
Right now there’s a limited offer:
$4.99/month for the next 4 people who join
After that, it goes back to $9.99/month
By Sunday, I’ll have a live test link ready. No accounts yet — just jump in and start testing with YouTube videos.
If you want early access, grab the link in the comments and join us.
And yes — it should work right from your phone.
Appreciate all the support as I keep building tools that actually make a difference.
