The page contrasts channel whitelists with per-video measurements, listing cuts, saturation, flicker, sound-effect density, and volume jumps. Its example flags a rainbow-slime video at 41 cuts per minute and 23 volume jumps, with a spike at 2:40; these are presented as product illustrations, not independently verified results. Parents are also promised per-child schedules, device-wide time budgets, filtered recommendations, and a PIN-protected parent panel.
