Two people, one sofa, two moods. One of you wants a mystery. The other wants something lighter after a long week. This is where film nights usually stall.

Start a shared session

You choose who is watching. Orb now knows this is a choice for both of you, not just one profile, and looks at the preferences each of you has agreed to use.

Look for the overlap

Orb looks for a playful mystery: a story with a puzzle at its centre that does not take itself too seriously. Firm exclusions from either profile are respected, so nothing either of you has ruled out comes back.

If the catalogue on your services cannot satisfy both moods tonight, Orb says so and offers a few alternatives, rather than pretending a perfect match exists.

Tonight stays tonight

Whatever you settle on remains a group choice. It does not quietly rewrite either person’s taste. Tomorrow, each profile is exactly as you left it.

  • Shared choices stay in the shared session.

  • Each profile keeps its own history and preferences.

Why it matters

A household TV should help people choose together while respecting that each of them has their own taste.
