Not sure what to watch? MateRate can be a good helper

Ah, the undecided legend of what to watch. Whether you are in front of the television surfing Netflix channels or endless, or still standing in front of the box office trying to decide which movie to watch, the problem has been with human existence since basically the advent of audiovisual production.

Fortunately, the modern age brings with it some ways to minimize the problem with suggestions, algorithms and, in some cases, doses of artificial intelligence. In this field, an interesting option recently emerged is the Brazilian service MateRate.


MateRate app icon - Movies & Series

Available on the web and in iOS and Android apps, MateRate aims to help you choose the perfect movie or series in the shortest possible time, whether at home or at the movies. For this, it takes into account all services of streaming that you use and / or subscribe to (Netflix, Telecine, iTunes, Prime Video, and others) and take this information into account to create a list of title recommendations available to you immediately.

The service still saves us from one of the greatest sources of conflict in the modern era, which is the joint choice of the movie or series to watch. With a profile system that can become friends with each other, the app has a special section for you to indicate with whom you are; From there, MateRate will create a list of combined recommendations that (possibly) will please all involved.

What's more, the app features alerts for new episodes of series or new productions of your favorite artists, technical information and critical summary (by IMDb) of thousands of movies and series, series bank for you to track your progress and track that of your friends, filters when searching for movies or shows (duration, genre, language, release time) and much more.

In the specific case of cinema, the app still has a differential: after choosing the movie, you can check the times of the sessions in the next theaters and, with a touch, MateRate takes you to the ticket purchase page. Very simple!

MateRate is available for free on the App Store and is worth a look at.
