Netflix has some of the best recommendation algorithms, but what do you want to watch right now?
We built Televisor to help you discover new shows based on an existing show you like.
E.g. find me something to watch like The Wire!
Tech: using an item-to-item collaborative filtering approach, whereas most sites like netflix use a user-to-user approach.
Two advantages of item-to-item are that it can start making recommendations right away without you having to input a lot of ratings, and it enables us to give focused recommendations. You might well like Downton Abbey, but perhaps you don't care to watch something like that right now?
