I don't see how this is different and/or better than trakt.tv. And what the hell does "automatically track what you're watching" mean. 3rd party software? Like xbmc+trakt plugin?

I also don't like how wherever you click on that website, including the search box, you're redirected to kickstarter campaign.

Trakt

- doesn't detect what you are watching on PC,

- doesn't detect what you are watching onlie(HULU, Netflix),

- doesn't has Anime DB(as I know they just parse TheTVDB).

Just saing what I've read from their campaign and retelling my comment below.

P.S. Yes, redirect from search input is pretty annoying

Detecting what you are watching on Hulu or Netflix is a stretch goal for them and according to their description it would only be for Chrome. Right now it's limited to avi, mkv, mp4, m4v files you watch on your computer.

If you are using xbmc or plex on your mac/pc there's a plugin to scrobble to trakt, not really a feature to set them apart.
