Public answers, clear boundaries.

CINEOS lets you describe the cinematic experience you want, in your own words, and finds the films that truly live in that space. Every result comes with a reason, not just a title.

Those platforms search the surface: titles, genres, cast, ratings. CINEOS searches the substance: how a film handles time, morality, emotion, silence, closure. You search by feeling, not by metadata.

Anyone who has ever walked out of a film and wanted to find something that lives in the same emotional space. Whether you watch Kurosawa or Spielberg, Parasite or The Godfather, Mad Max or In the Mood for Love. This is built for how you already think about cinema.

It means understanding a film the way you do. By what it does to you, not by its cast list or release year. How it handles violence. Whether it earns its ending. What it does with silence. The things a genre tag can never capture.

Because no one has built a way to search for how a film makes you feel. You can search by title, by actor, by year, by rating. You cannot search for 'morally ambiguous, emotionally restrained, stays with you for weeks.' CINEOS exists for that gap.

Whatever you're looking for, in your own words. 'Something quiet where two people can't be together.' 'Violent but gorgeous.' 'A film that feels like the day after something ended.' Plain language. Messy is fine. Precise is fine too.

Films that genuinely live in the space you described. Each result includes the film title and a clear explanation of why it belongs. Where it fits your description and where it might diverge.

Because a title without a reason is a guess. CINEOS shows you why each film was chosen, in plain language. You can read the reasoning, evaluate it, and disagree with it. The explanation is the product.

It's the honest case for why this film belongs in your results. One or two sentences about what makes this film a genuine match for what you described. Written so you can decide for yourself whether it fits.

Refine your description. Add a word. Remove one. 'Quieter.' 'Less bleak.' 'More intimate.' CINEOS responds to how you adjust your language. The search is a conversation, not a single query.

At launch, 275 films. Each one deeply studied. After launch, the catalogue expands to cover the full breadth of cinema. Depth first, then scale.

All kinds. Stalker and Fury Road. Parasite and The Remains of the Day. Spirited Away and There Will Be Blood. Cinema from 30+ countries across 70+ years. Commercial and arthouse live in the same catalogue because cinema is cinema.

Both. The Turin Horse sits next to Eternal Sunshine. Close-Up sits next to Mulholland Drive. At launch it's 275 curated films. After launch, the full world of cinema opens up. Every film that exists, understood with the same care.

Yes. We launch with 275 deeply studied films. After launch, the catalogue grows to include the full range of world cinema. The same depth applied at scale. That's the plan.

Early access is free. The long-term model has not been announced. What we can say: the goal is access, not exclusion.

A film title. A one-sentence description of what the film is and what it does. An explanation of why it fits what you described. And an honest note about where it might diverge from what you're after. Every result is transparent.

A score tells you nothing about why. '87% match' means nothing if you don't know what matched. CINEOS shows you the reasoning in words you can read. Because a reason you can evaluate is worth more than a number you can't.

That's useful information. Every result shows where it diverges, not just where it fits. If a film doesn't feel right, the divergence note usually tells you why. That helps you refine what you're actually looking for.
