The taste layer for your record collection
Would you love this record?
KNOW BEFORE YOU BUY.
Runout learns your taste, carries your whole collection in your pocket, and answers the crate-digging question in seconds, while you’re still standing in the store holding the record. Discogs stays your database. This is the taste layer on top.

You know why.
Real verdicts. Your taste will differ.
YOUR WHOLE SHELF,
ON FILE.
Runout is a shelf log. Every record you own or want, its pressings, its prices, and the story of why it belongs, riding along in your pocket.
We built it because Discogs can tell you what a record is, but not whether you’d love it. That question deserved its own app. Start with the library. Everything else is built on top of it.

CRATE
MODE
Snap the cover. Get the verdict.
Point your phone at anything in the bins. If it’s already on your shelf, it says so before wasting a thought. If it isn’t, the AI reads it against your taste and stamps it while your other hand keeps flipping.
Library hits answer instantly. No AI, no wait
Ask the record anything
Every album gets a chat. “Would I like this?” gets a straight yes, no, or maybe, grounded in what's actually on your shelf, not a press release.
Next three
Recommendations pulled from your taste, your lanes, your notes. Not a chart. Accept one to your wantlist, dismiss the rest, no hard feelings.
Blind spots
A critical audit of what your collection is missing (thin lanes, skipped eras, adjacent scenes) with five records to fix it.
Store trip
Tell it your budget and mood before you leave the house. Walk in with a prioritized hunt list. Tick them off in the bins.
Monthly recap
Your month in vinyl (what you added, what you spent, which lane got deeper) wrapped with a blurb only your shelf could earn.
It learns your lanes, not the charts.
Your taste profile is a living document you can read and edit, plus weights for every lane you collect in, and notes the AI actually reads. No black box. No engagement algorithm. It works for you, not on you.
One price. Everything above.
$24/YR.
One bargain-bin record. Twelve months of buying right.
Discogs is free and stays free. This is two bucks a month for knowing what to pull from the bin.
