How TasteGraph learns why you like things
TasteGraph builds recommendations from the patterns inside what you rate, not from a single genre label or a list of what other people clicked.
What happens to your ratings
-
You rate what you love
Add or rate movies, shows, books, and games. Ten strong signals are enough to start.
-
It looks for recurring traits
TasteGraph identifies patterns in tone, pacing, themes, character types, and narrative structure.
-
Those traits become your Taste DNA
The recurring patterns are written up as a plain-English taste profile, each one tied to titles you rated.
-
Candidates are ranked against it
Recommendations are ranked by how their traits fit the patterns already in your profile.
-
Each pick shows its reason
Every recommendation says why it matches, tied back to things you rated.
- You rated

- Arrival movie
- Outer Wilds game

Slow revelation, where the answer changes the story. Arrival and Outer Wilds.
Melancholy with warmth. Past Lives and Station Eleven.

Dark TV, 2017
"Like Arrival, time is the puzzle and the answer comes from understanding, not action."
Your profile keeps changing as you rate.
Taste DNA is built from your evidence. More ratings can strengthen a pattern, add a new one, or show where a label stops being useful.
That is why TasteGraph can say you like slow-burn mysteries but not every slow story, or that you respond to melancholy when it still carries warmth.
