Timeline (last 90 days)
CutCat is a free Chrome extension developed by developer Shivam Prajapati that lets users skip or mute scenes other viewers have flagged as containing sex, nudity, gore or profanity.
CutCat runs entirely in the browser, is designed specifically for Netflix on desktop computers, and is not affiliated with Netflix.
CutCat's operation relies on community crowdsourced flagging: viewers flag scenes, and the aggregated data is used by other users when they enable filtering.
CutCat only supports Netflix on the Chrome browser and cannot cover mobile devices, smart TVs or other streaming platforms.
CutCat has not currently disclosed its flag review mechanism, so accuracy remains a potential risk.
Skipping scenes may make the plot incoherent, and users need to weigh the balance between filtering and the viewing experience.
As a browser extension, CutCat does not modify the film itself but skips or mutes in real time, which may reduce legal risk, but attention should still be paid to Netflix's terms of service restrictions on third-party plugins.
Similar tools such as VidAngel and Netflix's built-in parental controls exist on the market, and CutCat enters with a positioning of being free, lightweight and user-selected, giving it a certain differentiation advantage.
