How it works
Your next watch, decided.
Three lists. One daily habit. Never argue about what to watch again.
Your three lists
Every show gets sorted into one of three places. Tap a button — done.
Made for watching together
Pair your account with a partner. The Our WatchList tab shows the intersection of both your WatchLists — shows both of you want to watch, excluding anything either has already ranked. Sorted by RankList scores to surface the best shared option. “What should we watch tonight?” answered in one glance.
Add friends, share your taste profile, and compare lists to discover where you clash and where you agree. Every comparison is a shareable page.
A homepage that learns you
Sign in and your preferences stick. Genres you always skip get hidden automatically. Shows you've already RankListed disappear from the main list. Your SkipList stays out of sight. What's left is a clean, honest ranking of exactly what's relevant to you right now.
Filter by service, genre, type, or score — every combination is a unique URL you can bookmark or share. “Best crime shows on Netflix, ranked” isn't a marketing page. It's a live, filterable answer.
The daily ritual
The New queue shows everything added to streaming in the last 7 days that you haven't triaged yet — sorted by RankList scores so the best content rises to the top. Open it, sort each show into WatchList, SkipList, or RankList. Thirty seconds. Done.
Your saved preferences apply automatically — you only see new shows on services you have, in genres you care about. When your queue is empty, you're all caught up. No guilt, no backlog.
The ranking
We rank shows by quality, not popularity. Each genre has its own pool — the best title in each genre scores 100, so a great War film competes against other War films, not blockbusters. A masterpiece in a niche genre can crown its category even if most people haven't heard of it.
How we score: RankList scores are built from critical signals — awards, guild honors, pedigree (showrunner, cast), and verified craftsmanship markers — not popularity metrics like viewership or social media buzz. Each signal is weighted by our own ranking algorithm. The goal: surface quality in a sea of content, giving you a filter to identify what's worth watching.
You won't always agree with our scores. Taste is personal. That's why every show can be re-ranked by you — your rankings become your personal quality layer, and you can share them with friends to compare where you clash and where you align.
Try it free for 12 months
You and your partner use the site free for a year. If after a year you love it, we ask for $3/month paid annually.
Why do we charge a small fee? Because we believe rankings should be honest — and honest rankings don't come from ad revenue.
- If you leave, your data stays yours. Export everything.
- No ads, ever: no sponsored rankings, no affiliate kickbacks, just honest rankings.
