Self-hosted media request manager that ties your favorite media servers with automated downloaders.
Core Features
- Integrates with Jellyfin, Plex, and Emby for authentication and library scanning
- Works with Sonarr and Radarr for automated content download
- Granular permissions and user management
- Multiple notification agents (Discord, Telegram, Email, etc.)
- Mobile-friendly responsive UI for on-the-go approval
What It Can't Do
- •① First-time setup requires linking a media server (Jellyfin/Plex/Emby) – make sure you have the API key. ② Sonarr/Radarr must be configured for automatic searching; otherwise requests just stay 'approved' but not downloaded. ③ If migrating from Overseerr or Jellyseerr, follow the official migration guide – do not copy config files directly. ④ Plex users need Plex Pass for full user import capabilities.
Use Cases
- Home media server: family members request content, admin approves easily
- Small media clubs: centralize requests and avoid duplicates
- Personal media library automation: request → auto-download → library import
Detailed Introduction
Seerr is a free and open-source application designed to simplify media requests for your personal media library. It connects seamlessly with popular media servers like Jellyfin, Plex, and Emby, as well as automation tools Sonarr and Radarr. Users can browse your existing library, request new movies or TV shows, and track request status—all from a clean, mobile-friendly interface. Features include user authentication via media server, granular permission controls, multiple notification channels (Discord, Telegram, email, etc.), and support for PostgreSQL or SQLite databases. It also offers watchlisting and blocklisting for better content management. Born as a fork of Overseerr, Seerr aims to be more community-driven and actively developed, with regular updates and an active Discord community.
