Everyone seems busy releasing AI-powered features... But there is a thrill in building software without prompts or heavy cloud processing.
Flowvi.be started as a pet project to explore how far we can go with just on-device algorithms, and so far the results have been very promising.
What's a mood?
For us, a mood is a set of parameters describing a song - genre, BPM, energy, valence, danceability, tempo, and others. Together, they define what we call a mood: energetic, mindful, or chill.
What do we do with it?
It works like this: when you pick a mood, Flowvi.be uses a deterministic scoring engine on-device to rank tracks from your library and stitch them into a playlist. Our playlist engine is designed to provide consistent, repeatable results. The outputs are entirely based on the contents of your library. It's a very "you" mix.
Of course, our approach can never be better than a human-curated playlist. Those are shaped by taste, context, experience and intent in ways software can't fully recreate.
Flowvi.be doesn't try to predict what you should like next, and it doesn't need to watch everything you do. Instead, once we index your library, the playlist engine runs entirely on your device, only using your own music library as a guide.
The future
There's a quiet satisfaction in software that does its job locally, consistently, and without asking for more data than it needs. That's our focus and we have some exciting plans to make the app even better.
Hope you choose to stay with us in 2026!
PS: If you have an idea of how we can make the app better, you're always welcome to send us an email 💜.
