Kurato: Movie, TV & Book Picks

Kurato

About this app

Stop endless scrolling. Start discovering movies, shows, and books you'll actually love.

There's more amazing content out there than ever which means your perfect pick exists. The problem? Finding it takes forever. Kurato fixes that.

NOT A STREAMING SERVICE

Kurato doesn't stream anything or sell books. We help you discover what's worth your time across the services and stores you already use.

HOW KURATO WORKS

PICKS THAT ACTUALLY KNOW YOU

Tell us a few favorites, that's it. We'll find patterns you didn't even know existed and connect the dots across movies, shows, and books. Unlike apps that only see what you watch on one streaming service, we see the whole picture of what you love. The more you use Kurato, the sharper your picks get.

SEE THE WHOLE PICTURE

Watch trailers for movies and shows without leaving the app. Read the first pages of any book before you commit. See every entry in a series in order for both movies and books.

See the full series. Tap Blade Runner and see every film in the franchise. Harry Potter? Every book in the series. Every version, linked in one place.

WHAT'S NEW ON YOUR SERVICES

Browse recent releases organized by streaming platform. See what dropped on Netflix, Max, and more, all in one place.

JUST DESCRIBE WHAT YOU'RE IN THE MOOD FOR

Don't know exactly what you want? Just say it:

• "Something scary but not gory"
• "Something that makes me laugh and cry"
• "A book like Project Hail Mary but funnier"
• "Halloween movies for young teens"
• "Book adaptations with strong leads"
• "Scary, funny, and British"
• “Nonfiction that reads like a thriller”

No filters. No menus. We get it. And we find it.

LOVED THE MOVIE? WE'LL FIND BOOKS THAT MATCH.

Love Dune? We won't just point you to the novel. We'll find books with the same epic worldbuilding, political tension, and slow-burn intensity whether it's the original book or something you've never heard of. Finished a great book? We'll find movies and shows that capture the same vibe, pace, and tone. Your taste crosses formats. So do we.

CREATE AND DISCOVER COLLECTIONS

Collections are playlists for movies, shows, and books. Create one for "Date Night Picks," "Obscure Apocalypse," or "Books That Wrecked Me." Drop in favorites, and we'll suggest more that fit. Share collections with friends, discover what others curated, or collaborate with your partner to find something you'll both actually want to watch.

TAKES — SAY WHAT YOU ACTUALLY THOUGHT

Finished something? Leave a take. A quick reaction, a longer thought, a friendly warning. Read takes from people who share your taste before you commit your evening to something. The star rating says how much a take says why.

PROFILES WORTH FOLLOWING

Your ratings, takes, and collections add up to something: a profile that shows the shape of your taste. Find people who love what you love, follow them, and see where their taste leads.

Ratings and reviews

I love this app. It's very sleek and easy to use. I love how I am able to make collections/lists and follow collections others have made. I also appreciate not being bombarded with ads. The only thing I wish was better is that I'd like to see who has saved my collections. And maybe I can & just don't know how. Also, there are a few indie movies I was unable to find, but 95% of everything I've watched in the last few months has been there. I hope in time the library will become larger.

I'm a big fan of this app! I've been using it to create collections of self help and spirituality books I want to read, plus to remember movies and shows to watch with my girlfriend in the future. The discover feature is pretty cool and I enjoy seeing new media on the front page to explore, it's usually something I'm interested in but either haven't watched or haven't heard of yet. Easy to use UI too!

this app does not let you watch movies it tells you where you can watch them. its slow and buggy DO NOT USE -5/5 stars
