There we were, like every other Friday night. I was finishing my glass of wine while pushing away my plate, and out pops the dreaded question. “What should we watch tonight?” She asks. I saw it coming. In fact, I always see it coming. Do I have an answer? Never. But I know how our night will go. We'll sit on the couch, open up the first streaming app, and start the dreaded doom scroll. “This one?” I'd ask. “No, we already watched it.” “How about this?” “I’m not into it.” And so it goes through the apps one by one until we run out of time and settle for a re-run of Sex and the City or The…

Most Friday nights and weekends, my wife and I would spend 30+ minutes scrolling Netflix, vetoing each other's movie suggestions. The intersection of our tastes is pretty small. She's into rom coms and the occasional thriller, and couldn't care less about ratings. I gravitate toward critically acclaimed stuff and 3h+ sagas. Eventually, we would settle on something neither of us really wanted, or a comfort TV show. So, I built movieagent.io to help us. It's an agent that finds what you're in the mood for tonight. The agent plays the role of an arbiter, and does its best to try and bridge the…

I kept running into the same problem: trying to find something new to watch, opening multiple streaming apps, and Googling titles one by one because the apps don't tell you if something is actually worth watching. So I built What to Watch, which aggregates content across major streaming services and reduces discovery to a simple Watch or Skip decision using IMDb and community ratings. I hadn’t written code since high school — this was built over ~400 iterations using Claude and Replit. Still very early and mostly trying to learn how people actually decide what to watch and how broad this use…
