What is it?

Seerr is a free, open source web application for managing requests for a media library. It sits alongside a media server such as Jellyfin, Plex, or Emby, letting household members or other users request movies and TV shows that are not yet available, while the administrator reviews and approves them.

It connects to the media server for user authentication and import, and scans the library so titles that already exist are marked as available. It also integrates with Sonarr and Radarr to pass approved requests on to those download managers. Requests can be made per season for shows, and watchlisting, blocklisting, and notifications through various agents are supported. Data can be stored in PostgreSQL or SQLite.

Seerr is a continuation of the Overseerr and Jellyseerr projects, and its documentation includes a migration guide for users moving from either one.
