About

nxto.app — a free game backlog tracker built by a gamer, for gamers.

What is nxto.app?

NXTO on nxto.app is a web tool that helps gamers make sense of their ever-growing game libraries. Instead of losing track of hundreds of purchased titles, you can manage everything in one place — tracking what you're playing, what you've finished and what's waiting in the queue. On top of that, the recommendation engine tells you what to try next based on your own taste, not generic popularity charts.

The project was born from a simple observation: gamers accumulate more games than they can ever play (especially after Steam and PS Store sales), yet there's no focused tool that combines backlog management with smart recommendations. nxto.app is an attempt to fill that gap.

Data & privacy

Game data is pulled from external sources: RAWG and Steam (metadata, cover art, genres, tags) and HowLongToBeat (estimated completion times). Your account data — backlog, ratings, settings — is stored on our servers; passwords are hashed with bcrypt. Some data is shared with the processors that make specific features work (payments via Stripe, AI recommendations via Anthropic, email delivery) — see the Privacy Policy for exactly what, why, and for how long.

Tech stack

The app is built with Vue 3 (frontend), Node.js / Express (backend) and SQLite (database). TLS and reverse proxying are handled by Caddy. The codebase is kept intentionally simple and fast.
