River of Light gives you more agency over your listening — recommendations that explain themselves, a library you actually curate, and a chat that talks back.
Every batch comes with its reasoning. You see why a song surfaced — the critic who praised it, the friend who rated it, the throughline to records you already love. No black box.
Tell the app what you want — Morrissey songs that annoy non-fans, music for my workout, something like the album I rated ten yesterday. Get back songs you can rate and save on the spot.
Rate every song from one to ten. Tag the ones that matter into playlists. Sort by feel. Your library becomes the ground truth — the thing your future recommendations are built from.
Rolling Stone. Rick Rubin. Tetragrammaton. Your friend with the best taste. Every source has a trust score — derived from songs you actually kept — and you can see it.
Connects to Spotify and YouTube Music. River of Light reads your library, learns your taste, and writes back when you ask it to — without asking you to leave the streaming service you already pay for.
Recommendations don’t sit in our app. We write them to a Spotify playlist named river of light recs — refreshed weekly, ordered for flow, ready to play wherever you already listen.
River of Light is in open beta. Open it in your browser today — iPhone and Android are in review.
