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.

Hey PH! I'm Surya, a solo iOS developer behind Slate AI. Here's the real story: every night I'd open Netflix, scroll for 30 minutes, check reviews, compare 10 different movies, and end up giving up and watching YouTube. I figured millions of people probably do the same thing. So I built my own recommendation engine from scratch. No ChatGPT, no gen AI - a custom algorithm that learns your taste the more you rate. I've been using it myself for months, and it genuinely hasn't recommended a movie I didn't like yet. That's when I decided to put it on the App Store. What just shipped in v5.0: → Add friends and see what they're watching → Letterboxd integration - sync your existing ratings (this also solved the cold-start problem) → Completely redesigned pages Some real numbers: 350+ downloads, 32% App Store conversion rate, all organic. I'd love brutal feedback from this community - specifically: 1. Are the recommendations actually good after a couple of ratings? 2. What genres does it struggle with? Free on iOS. I'll be here all day answering everything. Thanks for checking it out!
