uMood - Find YouTube videos for your mood

by
uMood helps you discover YouTube videos by describing what you want to watch — from simple moods like a calm night playlist to specific intents like “learn SEO without beginner fluff,” “find web design ideas for a landing page,” or “show me nostalgic videos from 2016.” Instead of scrolling endlessly, uMood uses AI to turn your mood, goal, or era into a more intentional YouTube discovery experience.

Hey Product Hunt 👋 I built uMood because finding the right YouTube video often starts with a clear intention… and then somehow turns into 20 minutes of scrolling. uMood is an AI-powered discovery layer for YouTube. Instead of starting with a generic search or an endless feed, you describe what you want to watch. That can be something simple like: “relaxing videos before sleep” Or something much more specific like: “advanced SEO tutorials without beginner fluff” “landing page design inspiration for a SaaS product” “20-minute mobility routine for after training” “nostalgic YouTube videos from 2016” uMood turns your mood, goal, situation, or era into curated YouTube video suggestions, so you can find what you actually wanted to watch faster. A few things it supports: - Custom moods with natural-language descriptions - AI-curated YouTube discovery - Nostalgia/year-based discovery - Focus and intentional watching sessions - Saved moods and refreshes The goal is not to replace YouTube, but to make it easier to use YouTube with more purpose. I’d love your feedback on: 1. Which type of mood or intent you would use first 2. Whether nostalgia/year-based discovery feels useful 3. What filters or features would make this more valuable for you Thanks for checking it out 🙏

@chrisoriginal01 The natural language approach is smart—most people do have a vague sense of what they want but lack the vocabulary to search for it effectively. The nostalgia angle is particularly clever since YouTube's algorithm isn't great at surfacing content by era. Curious whether you're seeing people use this more for passive browsing (relaxation, background) or active learning (tutorials, how-tos).
