Regional content discovery

Build better discovery tools for regional content on major streaming platforms. For viewers tired of US-centric recommendations.

Why now

Global streaming platforms often under-serve local content discovery despite having the catalog.

Effort
A few weeks

While platforms like Netflix have extensive regional libraries, their recommendation systems favor globally popular content, burying local gems.

Create a browser extension or companion app that enhances discovery of regional content based on cultural proximity rather than global popularity.

Monetize through affiliate links or premium curation features.

Start with basic filtering and manual curation for one region.

The risk is platforms improving their own discovery systems over time.
