From the founder
Michaël MerzeauWho is Gemster for?
People who enjoy movies, TV shows, books, manga, comics, and games and want to discover more based on their tastes.
What problem does Gemster solve?
It solves the problem of not knowing what to watch, read, or play next. People can discover new stories across different media based on what they already love.
How is Gemster different from the alternatives?
It uses an explainable recommendation engine, not generative AI, to provide cross-media recommendations. It focuses on discovery by analyzing your real affinities rather than pushing trending charts or popularity rankings.
How much does Gemster cost?
Gemster is currently completely free, with no restrictions. We're considering an optional Premium plan for major new features, but it won't take anything away from the free experience. The free version will continue to grow and improve alongside it.
What's next for Gemster?
We're continuously improving Gemster to make discovering and sharing great stories even better. Here's what we're working toward: - More media to explore: Expanding beyond movies, TV, books, manga, comics, and video games, starting with board games. - Smarter recommendations: Continuously refining our recommendation engine to deliver more relevant, surprising, and meaningful discoveries. - A richer social experience: More ways to discover through friends, share favorites, and explore together. - Creator profiles: Dedicated spaces for authors, artists, and content creators to share their work, tastes, and recommendations. - And plenty more, shaped by feedback from our growing community!
