// YOUNIFY CONNECT SDK · OVERVIEW

Streaming User Data API -- 14+ Services

One watchlist API. Every major streaming service.

Every streaming app runs into the same problem: new users arrive with years of viewing history, but your product starts with none of it. That makes personalization harder, weakens recommendations, and leaves users with a generic experience until they spend enough time in your app.

Younify Connect solves that by letting users link services like Netflix, Hulu, Max, and others -- so your app can immediately access normalized watch history, watchlists, ratings, and continue-watching queues across 14+ services.

What You Could Build with a Watchlist API

What you could build with real streaming user data

Unified Watchlist Experiences

Pull merged watchlists and continue watching queues from every connected service into a single unified view. No more asking users to re-enter what they've already watched.

Personalized Recommendations from Day One

Offer better recommendations and eliminate guesswork. Use actual recommendations from providers -- already personalized for each user -- to surface content that's relevant from the very first session.

Taste-Based Social Matching

Match users based on overlapping watch history and taste profiles -- no survey, no onboarding questions. The streaming user data does the work before your UI renders.

Power AI Features with Real Viewing Data

Feed your LLM or recommendation engine with thousands of normalized viewing events per user -- titles, ratings, genres, and timestamps -- sourced directly via the streaming personalization SDK.

How Younify Connect works

Every streaming service handles authentication differently -- MFA flows, CAPTCHA, session tokens, credential validation. Younify Connect abstracts all of it. You drop in the SDK, we handle every service. Your app gets clean, normalized data.

01 / SELECT

User Selects Services

Your user chooses which streaming accounts to connect -- Netflix, Hulu, Max, and more -- directly inside your app's UI.

02 / AUTH

SDK Handles Auth

The streaming SDK authenticates each service automatically, including MFA, CAPTCHA, and session management. Zero custom code on your end.

03 / RETRIEVE

User Streaming Data Retrieved

Younify fetches watchlists, watch histories, ratings, and recommendations -- normalized to a consistent schema across all 14+ services.

04 / ACCESS

Access Clean, Normalized Data

Your app receives structured streaming user data -- titles, content IDs, TMDB references, ratings, and activity timestamps -- ready to query immediately.

05 / DISPLAY

Build Your UI

The Younify Connect API returns data. What you build with it -- dashboards, feeds, recommendations, social features -- is entirely up to you.

06 / BUILD

Start Personalizing Immediately

With real watch history in hand from the first session, your streaming personalization API can deliver meaningful recommendations before a single in-app event is logged.
