Challenge

With over 2 billion logged-in monthly users, YouTube's vast content library can be overwhelming. Many users find themselves spending excessive hours—sometimes upwards of 45 hours per week—scrolling through endless videos, leading to decreased productivity and increased stress. The challenge was to help users enjoy their favorite content without falling into the trap of addictive consumption and FOMO (Fear of Missing Out).

By summarizing the most relevant and engaging content, Niyoz enables users to stay updated, inspired, and entertained without the need to constantly browse the platform. The sign-up process is straightforward, encouraging users to transition from passive scrolling to intentional content consumption.

Implementation

Upon signing up, users receive a personalized email each morning containing a concise summary of their top YouTube recommendations. The newsletter includes brief descriptions and direct links to videos, allowing users to choose what they want to watch at their convenience. Niyoz also incorporates user feedback to continuously refine and improve the recommendation algorithm, ensuring relevance and satisfaction.

Results

Within just one week of using Niyoz, users reported a significant reduction in time spent on YouTube—averaging a decrease from 45+ hours to under 10 hours weekly. Users appreciated the ability to access valuable and entertaining content without the addictive pull of the platform.
