MarvelCatchUp
An AI that builds a personalized 'get-ready' rewatch plan for the next MCU film — telling you exactly which Disney+ episodes and films to revisit, in what order, with the 30-second moments that actually matter.
Marvel fans who want to be caught up before the next big MCU release
- Personalized watch-list based on what you've already seen (cross-referenced with your Letterboxd or Disney+ history)
- Skip-the-filler mode: 30-second highlight reels of every must-know moment, with timestamps
- Comic-to-screen ties: which issues inspired the new film and where to read them digitally
- Schedule generator: 'rewatch 2 films a week and you'll be ready by opening night'
Spider-Man: Brand New Day is pulling 20,000+ searches in the US — the largest MCU release signal in months — and fans have no AI tool that turns the MCU's increasingly tangled backlog into a 6-hour prep plan.
Spider-Man: Brand New Day is confirmed for July 31, 2026 and Tom's Guide ran a piece on using ChatGPT to build an MCU catch-up playlist — confirming real pre-release demand, but it is sharply event-driven around specific MCU drops rather than steady.Spider-Man: Brand New Day - Wikipedia ↗ChatGPT just gave me the ultimate MCU recap - Tom's Guide ↗
Direct free competitors already exist: mcu-rewatch.com (open-source watch planner with target-date calculation) and marvelwatchlist.com ('Prep for Avengers: Doomsday'), plus ChatGPT itself is being recommended for this exact use case.MCU Watch Order & Planner - About ↗MCU Watch Order Guide (2026) — Prep for Avengers: Doomsday ↗
No evidence of paid demand: both incumbent tools are explicitly free with no ads or sign-ups, Marvel fans already pay for Disney+ subscriptions, and the 'AI' differentiation is easily replicated with ChatGPT prompts.MCU Watch Order & Planner - About ↗MCU Watch Order Guide (2026) — Prep for Avengers: Doomsday ↗
Demand is event-driven and dies between MCU releases; Screen Rant notes Brand New Day is the widest MCU gap since the pandemic, meaning long dry spells with no traffic between spikes.Upcoming Marvel Movies: MCU Phase 6 And Beyond (Release Dates & Details) ↗
A watch-planner UI is straightforward and open templates exist, but producing curated '30-second moments that matter' across 34+ movies and 20+ series is a significant ongoing content operation, not a trivial build.MCU Watch Order & Planner - About ↗
