SkipSponsor is a lightweight browser extension that uses Natural Language Processing (NLP) to detect sponsor segments in YouTube videos. It analyzes video transcripts to identify sponsored content and provides a button to skip over these segments. The extension utilizes a Machine Learning model trained on transcripts from over 300,000 videos, annotated by the crowd-sourced dataset SponsorBlock. The model is hosted on a server to minimize the extension's impact on browser performance.
