The problem it solves

You want to keep track of movies you're excited about, but remembering release dates and manually adding them to your calendar is easy to forget. Sifting through release lists yourself takes time you'd rather spend elsewhere.

Who it fits

Movie fans, entertainment bloggers, or small teams who track and share upcoming releases.

How it works

  1. Every day, the system checks for newly announced upcoming movies
  2. It skips any movie already tracked to avoid duplicates
  3. It sends each new movie to a Telegram chat with an add-to-calendar option
  4. When you tap the option, it creates a Google Calendar event on the release date
What you get

Movie premieres you never miss

You get every newly announced movie release sent to Telegram with a one-tap option to add it to your calendar.

What you get

A Google Calendar event for any upcoming movie you choose to track, created straight from a Telegram message.

What you need

A Telegram bot, a Google Calendar account, and access to a movie database like TMDB.

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.
