Step 3 · Meet the four agents that picked your video

ShortFlix is not "an AI". It is four small specialists working together. We will show you each one, and then we will show you the first video they picked for you — with a plain-English receipt of why.

Curator agent

Looks at what you've watched and ranks tonight's candidates by how new they will feel to you. Powered by Gemini.

Unified-search agent

Talks to YouTube Shorts, Instagram Reels, and TikTok at once — through a tool layer called MCP. No app-juggling.

Trend-safety agent

Throws out anything that breaks rules: copyright traps, age-gated content, links that don't ground in real sources.

Orchestrator

The conductor. Tells the other three when to start, what to send each other, and when to stop. Built on Google's ADK.
