## What is FilmScout?

FilmScout breaks down every movie scene by scene so you know exactly what to expect before your family watches.

Every movie in the catalog gets a ScoutScore, a single number that tells you how much parental guidance to expect. Green means smooth sailing. Red means buckle up. The score adjusts to your family's own values, so what matters to you is reflected in every rating.

HOW IT WORKS

Browse the catalog and tap any movie to see its full scene breakdown: violence, language, sexual content, substance use, scary moments, and more. Each scene is flagged, categorized, and described in plain language.

SCOUT COMPANION

Start a movie and let the Companion follow along in real time. It listens to the movie playing in your room and alerts you before a flagged scene arrives, so you can skip, mute, or start a conversation.

PERSONALIZED FOR YOUR FAMILY

Set up family profiles with your own sensitivity levels for each content category. Add personal triggers and phobias so scenes that matter to you are highlighted in purple before they happen.

FREE TO START

Browse the full catalog, see every ScoutScore, and explore some complete movies without creating an account or paying anything.

GO PRO

Unlock the full catalog with every scene breakdown and the Scout Companion. Pro starts at $1.99/month (founder pricing, locked in for life) or $14.99/year. Lifetime access is available for a one-time purchase for a limited time.

REQUEST ANY MOVIE
