Algorithmic Discovery Engine for Subsonic Servers
A middleware API and companion dashboard that connects to any Subsonic-compatible media server to generate automated, Spotify-style 'Discover Weekly' playlists and radio mixes based on the user's local library.
이것이 중요한 이유
You have spent countless hours downloading, organizing, and hosting your personal music library on a private server. You love owning your data and streaming it to your phone. However, when you open your player, you are forced to know exactly what you want to hear. There is no 'Discover Weekly', no endless radio stations based on your mood, and no algorithmic nudges. You miss the effortless curation of commercial streaming platforms, but you refuse to abandon your private library. Currently, you have to cobble together tracking scripts and third-party databases just to get a decent playlist.

실패 가능 요인
자가 반박 — 가장 중요한 신뢰 신호
- 1Users might have highly esoteric libraries that external recommendation APIs cannot map or provide suggestions for.
- 2The friction of providing server credentials (URL, username, password/token) to a third-party cloud service might deter privacy-conscious users.
- 3Running heavy library syncs could overwhelm low-powered hardware servers (like Raspberry Pis) causing timeouts.
