  YTidy organizes your YouTube subscriptions into folders — right inside YouTube.                   
                                                                                                    
    A lightweight side panel that sits alongside YouTube. No page injection, no lag, never breaks when
     YouTube updates.
  
    WHAT YOU CAN DO (FREE):
    • Create up to 10 folders to organize your channels by topic
    • Manage up to 50 channels across folders
    • Save videos to your Watch List (up to 10)
    • Search YouTube from the side panel (5 per day)
    • Rate channels with stars
    • Save for Analysis — download any video's transcript as a markdown file
    • Follow and unfollow channels without leaving the panel
    • Dark mode that matches YouTube's theme
    • Cloud sync between the extension and ytidy.com
  
    PRO FEATURES ($2.99/month or $29.99/year):
    • Unlimited folders, channels, and watch list saves
    • Unlimited searches
    • Inbox — new video feed from your followed channels
    • Scout — AI-powered topic discovery that finds videos you'd never see in your feed
    • Video notes, keyboard shortcuts, PocketTube import
    • Auto-sync across devices
    • 7-day free trial, cancel anytime
  
    WHY YTIDY INSTEAD OF POCKETTUBE:
    • Side panel architecture — never breaks when YouTube updates (PocketTube injects into the page)  
    • Cloud sync that works — no fragile Google Drive sync
    • Built-in content discovery (Scout + Search) — PocketTube only organizes
    • Watch List with actual organization — not YouTube's graveyard "Watch Later"
    • Cheaper ($2.99 vs $3.99/month) with a more generous free tier
    • Active development — shipping features weekly
  
    PERFECT FOR:
    • YouTube power users with 100+ subscriptions
    • Creators managing research and competitor channels
    • Students organizing educational content
    • Anyone tired of YouTube's algorithm deciding what they see
  
    PRIVACY:
    Your data stays in your browser by default. Cloud sync is optional and uses your ytidy.com        
    account. No tracking. No ads in the extension. No selling your data.
  
    KEYBOARD SHORTCUT: Alt+Y to toggle the side panel

  YouTube keeps burying the Subscriptions tab. YTidy rebuilds it — better.
  
  YTidy is a side panel that lives right inside YouTube and turns your subscription chaos into organized folders. Built for people who follow 100+ channels and actually want to find things.
  
  WHY YTIDY
  • Your folders can't disappear — they live in your cloud account with downloadable backup. (Ask a PocketTube user about vanished groups.)
  • Switching from PocketTube? Import your groups in one click — free.
  • A real web dashboard at ytidy.com comes with it.
  
  FREE — AND GENUINELY USEFUL
  • Unlimited folders
  • Organize up to 150 channels
  • Watch list — save up to 25 videos for later
  • Rate channels with stars so the best rise to the top
  • Save for Analysis — download any video's transcript and details as a file
  • Cloud account + backup file, web dashboard included
  
  PRO — $3.99/month or $39.99/year (2 months free)
  • Inbox — a clean feed of new videos from the channels you choose
  • Scout — AI-powered discovery that finds channels and videos by topic
  • Auto-sync every 30 seconds, hands-free
  • Unlimited channels, saves, and searches
