Stop Scrolling. Start Watching Together.
Velo is the mobile movie matchmaking app that ends the "What should we watch tonight?" argument. Swipe through movie decks with your partner or friends and get an instant consensus-ranked watchlist.
About Velo — Purpose of the Application
Velo is a cooperative movie matchmaking mobile application designed to solve decision paralysis when picking movies for couples and friend groups.
What is Velo?
Velo is a mobile application that turns movie selection into a seamless, fun, cooperative swiping game. One user creates a room, friends join via a 6-character code or QR code, and everyone swipes through movie cards independently. Velo’s consensus algorithm then computes each person’s preferences into a fair, weighted watchlist for tonight’s movie session.
How Google OAuth / Sign-In is Used
Velo integrates Google Sign-In exclusively to provide users with secure account authentication, profile creation, and real-time synchronization of saved watchlists and movie taste profiles across devices.
