FRT

For accessible video watching

Follow every character while you watch.

FRT helps people with prosopagnosia keep track of who is on screen. Load a character track in the browser extension and get consistent color labels over the video as it plays.

Works with the FRT browser extension. Download a track, load it once, and watch on supported streaming sites.

FAQ

Common questions

Who is FRT for?

FRT is built for people with prosopagnosia, also called face blindness, who want help telling recurring characters apart while watching movies and TV.

What is an .frt file?

An .frt file is a small character track generated from a source video. It tells the browser extension when each character appears so it can draw consistent color labels on screen.

How do I request a new title?

Create an account, open New request, and either send title metadata for admin review or upload a source video directly. After approval, you initiate processing and download the finished track from your request page.

Does FRT host or stream the video?

No. You keep watching in your own browser on your streaming service. FRT only provides the character track file and overlays labels through the extension.
