Slate AI - Stop scrolling. Start watching.

I built Slate AI because I was wasting 30 min every night picking a movie on Netflix and ending up on YouTube instead. It's a custom recommendation engine that learns your taste through ratings - no generative AI, built from scratch. What's different: - Recs get smarter with every rating - Letterboxd sync to import existing ratings - Add friends, see what they're watching - Franchise watch orders (MCU, Star Wars) Free on iOS. Built by a solo dev.
