Honest answers.
Do I still bring my own keys on Pro?
Yes, your TMDB key (free, takes 60 seconds to grab) and any optional MDBList / RPDB / Trakt connection. Pro only handles the AI key for you. AI Streams is catalogs + metadata only; bring whatever Stremio playback addon you already use separately.
What does "AI-ranked" actually mean?
We embed the top 10,000 popular titles into a pgvector index with overview text + genres + year. When you open an AI Picks row, we embed a query built from your Trakt + MDBList + local watch history, retrieve top-N nearest neighbors, and re-rank with a small LLM. No hallucinated IMDB IDs.
Does it work in Nuvio?
Yes. Paste your install URL under Addons in Nuvio and move AI Streams to the top of the list: Nuvio asks only the first addon for title details, which is how AI Streams learns what you open. On Free or Pro you can also link your Nuvio account, so what you watch in Nuvio feeds your picks. Moving over from Stremio? Pro copies your Stremio Continue Watching and watch history into Nuvio in one click. Nuvio shows that history while no tracker (Trakt, Simkl or MDBList) is connected inside Nuvio; if you already use one, connect the same tracker in Nuvio instead.
How does the free trial work?
Seven days of Pro, card required at signup. Stripe charges the plan you picked on day 8 unless you cancel first from the billing portal. Cancel before then and you pay nothing.
Can I cancel anytime?
Yes. Stripe subscription, cancel from the customer portal or email receipt. Your addon URL keeps working on the free tier after cancellation.
Is there a refund policy?
Email within 7 days of signup, no questions asked.
What about my privacy?
Keys are AES-encrypted at rest with a separate encryption key from the free-tier addon URL. Watch history lives in your own row on Neon Postgres, scoped to your user ID.
