"Sorry, folks! We’re experiencing some throttling on the upstream! The algorithm is congested!"

As of 2025, the average consumer subscribes to 4–6 streaming services simultaneously, yet reports spending nearly 20 minutes per session deciding what to watch (Deloitte, 2024). This paradox of choice undermines user satisfaction. Existing aggregators (e.g., JustWatch, Reelgood) offer metadata consolidation but lack deep integration and seamless playback across platforms. Streamgaroo proposes a paradigm shift: a lightweight middleware layer that enables users to navigate, select, and consume content across services as if from a single interface, while respecting platform boundaries.
