The implementation plan

The path a member walks

1. Read why a house joins, including the research and the fact that the desk is free.
2. Sign in, or take a name. The record is written only in this browser.
3. If they wish, mark a streaming shelf. The score is computed from those titles at once. Skipping is allowed.
4. Name the people and give an age. Each person inherits the marked shelf and receives a Living Meter.
5. Choose new-release notes, the Sunday page, or neither.
6. See the week: the house average, each person's bar, evenings kept at 70 or above, and one title to leave for one that scores higher.
7. Accept the promise, or erase the house. The privacy page is the long form of that promise.

How a score is made

Eight measures: industry, household, piety, courage, republic, temperance, truth, stewardship. Each is 0 to 10. Add them, divide by eight, multiply by ten. A person's number is the mean of the titles on that person's shelf. If none are marked yet, the desk uses a plan fitted to age until the shelf is real. The house number is the mean of the people. A kept evening is a title at 70 or above. The suggested swap is the lowest title on that shelf, replaced by a title at 75 or above that the person has not already marked.

Linking, without taking the keys

The seamless step is a choice of service and a choice of titles, not a password form. The moment the titles are marked, the meter runs. A later official connection, if a company ever offers one a charity can use, may only add titles. It may not copy a profile, a payment method, or a watch history off the company's servers into anyone else's hands. Until that exists, the family remains the source of the list.

Already on the desk

• A title is scored on eight virtues, each from 0 to 10. The Living Meter is that average, times ten.
• Search returns a measure in the house's voice, with the picture and the number beside it.
• The join walk has seven steps: why, the door, the shelves, the people, the notices, the week, and the promise.
• A shelf is linked by marking titles on Netflix, Hulu, Disney+, or Prime Video. The password is never asked.
• Each person can be named. Their marked titles produce a score, a count of evenings at 70 or above, and one swap that would raise the week.
• New-release notes and the Sunday page are choices stored on the device.
• The privacy page states the rule, and the house can be erased.

The next thirty days

• A kept shelf on the home desk: the highest Living Meters on the services that house actually linked, refreshed when new titles are measured.
• The Sunday page as its own room, opened from the house, showing each person, the bar, the badge, and the one swap.
• A new-release list limited to the linked services, scored before it is shown, highest and newest first.
• The quest saved with the person, so next Sunday can say whether the swap was made.

The quarter after

• A badge that sticks: Lamp lit, Table set, House in order, Steward. It moves only when the week's average moves.
• A plain export of the house's own record, for the family, not for a partner.
• Annie offers the week's swap in her own voice when someone asks what to watch.

Not in the plan

• No sign-in to Netflix, Hulu, Disney+, or Prime Video on the family's behalf.
• No sale, rent, or trade of the household record.
• No account for a child. A parent writes the name.
• No claim that the meter diagnoses anyone.

How we will know it works

• A house can finish the walk without handing over a streaming password.
• Every marked title has a Living Meter before it is shown on the week page.
• The Sunday page names one concrete swap, not a mood.
• Erasing the house removes the names, the shelves, and the scores from this device.
• Nothing in the member record is sent to an advertiser.
