NextReel is a free web app that reads your public Letterboxd ratings and suggests five films you have not logged yet. Each pick includes a match score, a vibe note, and trailer links.

Do I need a Letterboxd account?

Yes. You need a public Letterboxd profile with at least five rated films. NextReel does not create a Letterboxd account for you and cannot read private or empty profiles.

How many recommendations do I get?

You get five film picks per generation. You can regenerate once within the same 24-hour window if you want a fresh batch, and older batches stay saved on your recommendations page.

Yes. NextReel is free to use right now. The limit is five picks per 24 hours per device, which keeps the service usable while costs stay manageable.

How are the picks chosen?

NextReel analyzes your Letterboxd ratings, including low scores and liked films, then finds unwatched titles that fit those patterns. Obvious chart-toppers you have probably already seen are avoided when better matches exist.
