Your library's AI
Muvo Scout is the conversational layer on top of your personal media: discovery, search help, playback cues, and server guidance — included with Muvo AI+. Your files stay on your hardware; Scout connects intelligence to what you already own.
Why Scout exists
Folder trees and exact-title search are fine for filing — not for deciding what to watch on a Friday night. Scout closes that gap by combining modern language models with metadata and behaviour from your Muvo library.
Recommendations that respect your shelf
Scout reasons over titles you actually own — genres, moods, cast, what you have and have not watched — so suggestions are grounded in your collection, not generic lists.
Search in conversation
Describe what you are in the mood for in plain language. Scout helps narrow the library, refine results, and connect natural phrasing to the right films and shows.
Playback and control
Ask Scout to start something, pick up where you left off, or steer playback when your hands are full — part of a unified AI layer across the Muvo experience.
Setup and troubleshooting
New to media servers? Scout can walk you through libraries, transcoding, and connectivity in conversational steps alongside the guided wizard.
Memory across the chat
Follow-up questions feel natural: Scout keeps context within the session so you can iterate on ideas without repeating yourself.
Per-user, personalised
Each account can use Scout with their own watch history and taste signals — the same multi-user model as the rest of Muvo.
What you can ask it to do
Exact behaviour evolves with the product, but Scout is designed around a consistent idea: fewer dead ends, more “yes, that’s in my library” moments.
- Natural-language “what should I watch?” with unwatched and runtime-aware picks
- Library Q&A: cast, themes, and “do I have something like…?” style questions
- Tighter coupling with semantic search and voice workflows on Muvo AI+
- Provider-grade models (e.g. GPT family) with a path toward additional providers over time
Plan and privacy
Muvo AI+ is a per-user subscription. Everyone on a server can use Muvo on the Free or Premium tiers; each person who wants Scout, semantic search, and the rest of the AI bundle needs their own Muvo AI+ subscription.
Your video files and library database remain under your control on the media server. Chat and advanced AI features use cloud model providers to interpret requests and generate responses — similar to other assistant products — while Muvo keeps playback and storage local.
Names. “Muvo Scout” is our AI — the conversational experience in the app. “Muvo AI+” is the subscription tier that unlocks Scout along with semantic search, recommendations, voice search, smart playlists, and related AI features. See the FAQ for billing and multi-user details.
