Qloo

How Najimi uses Qloo

Qloo's taste graph is the engine under every screen. Every endpoint Najimi calls, what it asks, and how the agent gets the whole surface.

Built on , the taste graph that knows how the things people love connect across culture.

Najimi would not work without Qloo. Someone who loves Insecure and Americanah tends to love Jorja Smith, a certain kind of restaurant, a certain kind of room: Qloo knows those links across music, film, TV, books, podcasts, brands, places, destinations, games and people. Every pick, word, map, match and plan stop in Najimi is a Qloo answer, and so are the hidden answers in Guess my wavelength and Blind Taste.

The endpoints

EndpointWhat Najimi asks it
GET /searchTurn a name into a Qloo id: the loves you pick, cities, a business near its address, imports, the agent's lookups.
GET /entitiesOne thing's full record (the sheet for anything you tap); imports matched exactly by Goodreads, MusicBrainz, X or Instagram id; poll options' artwork.
POST /v2/insightsThe workhorse. Your loves go in as weighted { id, weight } signals with explainability on. See the uses below.
GET /v2/tagsFind tags by meaning: "candlelit", "jazz bar", "rainy day", a business's kind.
GET /v2/analysis/compareWhat two tastes share and what's only each one's: your match with anyone, a business against its street, the agent's comparisons.
GET /v2/audiencesAudiences the agent can lean a taste with.

The agent gets the whole surface

Najimi isn't handed a "recommend" button. Its five Qloo tools mirror the API itself, and it composes them for each ask:

ToolEndpoint
qlooSearch/searchnames → ids
qlooTags/v2/tagsmeanings → tags
qlooInsights/v2/insightspicks, words, heatmaps, demographics, with Qloo's signals and a wide set of its filters
qlooCompare/v2/analysis/comparetwo tastes side by side
qlooAudiences/v2/audiencesaudiences to lean with

See Every tool for every filter and how it composes them ("hidden-gem music" is artists with a low popularity ceiling; "is Burna Boy for me?" scores exactly his id against your taste).

Fast, cached and fair

Next: feature by feature, and explainability.
