The next layer: Guidory Plus

The same video.
A different family.

A universal score is a useful start. But your child's age, your comfort with fast pacing, and your views on advertising are personal.

Plus helps you see those differences—and understand the estimated recommendation risks beyond the video itself.

FAMILY FIT

A closer match to your household

See how your preferences affect the guidance, with seven advanced controls and a detailed explanation of what matched and what didn't.

ALGORITHM RISK

Look beyond one video

Explore the estimated risk score, recommendation ecosystem, contributing signals, and practical next steps. This is an estimate—not a prediction of your child's feed.

CONFIDENCE & CONTEXT

Know how much the analysis can tell you

Get the confidence breakdown behind a result, so limited information doesn't look like certainty. Save without limits and compare up to five options.

Understand the scores and their limitations

Built for trust, not certainty.

Guidory uses AI-assisted analysis and structured scoring rules. When transcripts or other evidence are missing, the analysis is more limited. A high score is not a guarantee, and Guidory does not block videos or monitor your child.

A few things you might be wondering

Good questions.

What does Guidory Plus add?

Plus adds detailed Family Fit explanations, seven advanced preference controls, full Algorithm Risk and confidence guidance, unlimited saves, and comparisons of up to five options. It costs $4.99 per month or $39 per year, billed annually.

How does Guidory check a YouTube video or channel?

Guidory combines available YouTube information, transcripts when available, AI-assisted analysis, and structured scoring rules. Each report brings together a Parent Score, estimated age fit, content signals, and a confidence label. Limited evidence means a more limited analysis; Guidory does not watch every frame.

Does a high Parent Score mean a video is safe for every child?

No. Scores are estimates, not safety guarantees. Read the written explanation and confidence label, consider your child's age and sensitivities, and preview content when you need more certainty. You make the final decision.

Is this a parental-control or video-blocking app?

No. Guidory is a decision-support tool for parents. It does not block videos, monitor children, or control YouTube recommendations. You do not need to connect a YouTube account to use it.

Do I need to download an app?

No. You can use Guidory in your phone, tablet, or computer browser. Search for a video or channel, read its analysis, and create a free account to keep your saved checks and preferences together.
