Could you build this?
Partial The tracking app and alerts are straightforward, but a reliable cross-domain release calendar depends on aggregating data from many APIs with varying licences, coverage and rate limits, including cinema and tour dates that are hard to source.
What it would actually take: Build the app with a backend that polls and normalises sources such as TMDB for film and TV, IGDB for games, MusicBrainz or Spotify for music, Open Library for books, and ticketing or concert APIs for tours. The hard parts are obtaining licensed cinema and tour data, deduplicating entities across sources, and running reliable scheduled alerts. Data partnerships and ongoing pipeline maintenance are the real requirements.
