Curation Studio
Reimagining listener engagement through transparent AI and tiered value differentiation in Amazon Music App.
The Problem: Your Music App Doesn't Really Understand You
What if your music app knew what you wanted to hear before you did? AI music recommendations operate like a black box, offering songs without revealing why. Users unknowingly get stuck in loops, with no control over the factors shaping their playlists—whether genre, tempo, or past likes—making discovery feel passive rather than intentional.
Curation Studio is a multi-layered filtering feature that empowers users to refine music recommendations by applying multiple specific criteria simultaneously. This system works alongside Amazon Music’s AI recommendation engine, giving listeners unprecedented control over their music experience.
