Works with IMDb

Let your IMDb ratings pick your next film.

You've been rating on IMDb for years. Ipsomap reads those 1-to-10 scores, works out what your highest ones have in common, and picks what to watch next.

What your history turns into

• What your 9s and 10s share

  A written read of the thread running through the titles you scored highest — tone, pacing, the kind of lead you follow.

• Your 3s count too

  What you disliked is half the picture. The profile names what makes a film fail for you, so picks steer clear of it.

• A watchlist you'll get through

  Your IMDb watchlist comes in whole. Ipsomap keeps its own list to 20 titles, so it then offers to keep your top 20.

Export from IMDb

1. 1

   On imdb.com, open Your Ratings from your profile menu, then click Export at the top right. You get a CSV of everything you've rated.

2. 2

   Open Your Watchlist and export it the same way, for a second CSV.

3. 3

   Keep both files: you'll drop them in together.

What's in the file

Your Rating

Your score out of 10, kept as it is — Ipsomap rates out of 10 too.

Title, Year

Used to find the exact title, so a remake isn't mistaken for the original.

Title Type

Tells films from series and TV movies, so each is filed as what it is.

Watchlist CSV

The titles you want to see, without a score. They arrive as to-watch.

Reviews you posted on IMDb, your lists and the IMDb community scores stay there.

Then, in Ipsomap

1. 1

   Create your account and open Settings → Import history.

2. 2

   Drop both CSV files at once.

3. 3

   Check the matches — when two titles share a name, the year decides — and skip anything you don't want.

4. 4

   Save. Your taste profile builds from everything you brought in, and you land on it.

Claude reads the file, so saving uses AI credits: 1 per 20 titles, a series counting once. The free plan's 50 monthly credits cover close to 1,000 titles, and nothing is charged until you save.

Questions

Do I have to stop rating on IMDb?

No. Rate wherever it's natural for you. When you've added a batch, export again: titles already in Ipsomap are skipped, and only the new ones use credits.

What about titles I watched but never rated?

IMDb's export only lists what you rated, plus your watchlist. Add the rest in Ipsomap, or paste a list — the import reads plain text too.
