Keeping track of the films, books, and TV shows you have experienced can become difficult when your favourites and recommendations are spread across different platforms. Curate is a media tracking app that brings books, films, and television together in one place, giving users a single space to record what they watch and read. The platform also focuses on discovery through recommendations based on real human taste rather than relying entirely on automated algorithms.
Its approach is designed for people who want more control over what they discover and prefer recommendations that feel personal and considered. Curate is also ad-free, creating a quieter environment for browsing, tracking, and discovering new media. By combining media tracking with human-led discovery, the platform aims to give people a more thoughtful way to keep up with the things they watch and read.
