How to use this tool

Enter your video, course, or podcast length in hours and minutes, then pick a playback speed using the preset buttons (1x, 1.25x, 1.5x, 1.75x, 2x) or type a custom speed. The calculator instantly shows your new watch time and time saved — for example, 2 hours at 1.5x becomes 1h 20m with 40 minutes saved.

Choose a platform mode (YouTube, Netflix, Udemy, Coursera, Spotify, Audible) for tailored speed suggestions. Use the comparison table to see savings at every common speed. Switch to Reverse speed when you have a deadline: enter how long you can watch and get the required speed. Course and Podcast tabs estimate completion time for long content. Playlist batch totals multiple videos. Daily goal shows how much content you cover per study session, and Yearly gain projects hours saved over a year. Share your result when you find a speed that works. If speed is above 2x, check the comprehension warning before pushing faster.
