Every streaming original, in one place
originave.com is a database of streaming originals — the exclusive shows and movies each platform owns, and the only titles that never leave. Our mission: gather them all from every major service into one tidy, searchable catalog, with a quality ordering that makes browsing easier.
All originals, one place
Every exclusive show and movie from the major streaming services, gathered into one searchable catalog.
Compare platforms
See what each platform actually offers side by side, so you can decide what's worth your subscription.
A sensible order
Titles are ordered by a score that balances rating, popularity, and confidence — a guide for browsing, not a verdict.
The one part of streaming that doesn't move
Streaming catalogs change constantly — except for one corner of them. That's the corner we catalog.
Licensed content
Most of what you scroll past is on loan. Deals expire, rights move, and that movie you saved for the weekend quietly exits on the first of the month. Your watchlist isn't broken — the catalog just changed under it.
Originals
Made and owned by the platform itself, originals don't pack up when a deal ends — they're here today, and still here next year. That permanence is what makes a database of them worth keeping.
Every major platform
We track originals across all the services you already know.
How titles are ordered
A simple star average is easy to game — a title with five 10-star reviews would beat a beloved classic with a million. We use a Bayesian weighted rating (the same idea behind the IMDb Top 250) and add a gentle popularity bonus.
Rating
The title's average rating (R) — its raw IMDb score.
Vote count
How many people voted (v). More votes means more confidence in the rating.
Popularity
A popularity bonus that gently lifts widely-watched titles up the list.
The score, in plain terms
- R — the title's own rating, and v its number of votes.
- C — the average rating across all credible titles. New titles with few votes are pulled toward this average until they've earned enough votes to stand on their own.
- m — the vote count (≈1,000) at which a title's own rating starts to outweigh that average.
- weight — how strongly raw popularity tilts the ranking. Turn it down for pure quality, up to favor the crowd-pleasers.
Who makes the cut
To keep the leaderboards meaningful, a title needs a healthy number of votes (around 10,000) to qualify. Brand-new releases from the current year get a lower threshold so this year's breakouts aren't unfairly buried.
