I always wanted something similar for my city and started with the local cinema program but then never added any other sources. It was still useful for the 10 or so years it was online, and I still think about getting back to it.

That said, while the idea seems promising, it‘s difficult to maintain, especially since sources (APIs / websites) tend to change frequently. If I remember correctly, pg even mentions this idea in one of his essays as a typical “bad idea“ that founders want to build but nobody figures it out as a business.
