The problem it solves

Spotify refreshes your Discover Weekly playlist automatically, so if you do not save the songs you like in time, they disappear for good. Manually copying tracks to a new playlist every week is easy to forget.

Who it fits

Music lovers who want to keep a personal archive of Discover Weekly picks.

How it works

  1. A schedule checks your Discover Weekly playlist every 15 minutes
  2. The system detects when the playlist has changed
  3. The current tracks are copied into an archive playlist
What you get

Discover Weekly picks you never lose

You get a growing archive of your Discover Weekly picks, saved automatically before Spotify swaps them out each week.

What you get

A saved archive playlist that preserves each week's Discover Weekly picks.

What you need

A Spotify account.

We can build this. But should you?

The hard question is not how to build it. It is whether this is the right thing to build first.

That is what a Fractional Chief AI Officer figures out with you, before anyone writes a line of code.
