We’re excited to announce a major update: the Jellyseerr and Overseerr teams are officially merging into a single team called Seerr. This unification marks an important step forward as we bring our efforts together under one banner.
For users, this means one shared codebase combining all existing Overseerr functionalities with the latest Jellyseerr features, along with Jellyfin and Emby support, allowing us to deliver updates more efficiently and keep the project moving forward.
Please check how to migrate to Seerr in our migration guide and stay tuned for more updates on the project!

Anyone know if you can integrate this with a real-debrid account or similar service? I’ve been enjoying using real-debrid since I don’t have to worry about storing the stuff I’m watching.
I don’t quite get what this is supposed to do. Is it basically a software to allow jellyfin/plex users to request media without needing a radarr/sonarr account?
Basically yes. My father can log into Overseer with his Plex account, so no new account and password, and request movies or tv shows which I can approve manually or pre-approve. I don’t have to give him admin access to my Sonarr or Radarr and the user interface is quite friendly.
I don’t know much about the *eerr stuff… Is there a good way to connect a debris service with that? I’m using Stremio+Torrention rn, but it’s crashing regularly or isn’t able to find magnet links.
That was totally unexpected /s
I was surprised to see emby mentioned. I thought they shot themselves so hard in their feet with the licensing changes back then that there was a reason that we only hear from jrllyfin these days.
Afaik Jellyfin and Emby use the same authentication so by adding Jellyfin support Emby automatically works too.
Good news!!
I’ve missed both projects. What were they? Are they like Jackett or Prowlarr?
The fact it recommends popular stuff is a useful addon feature, its a good way to look at what others are watching.
If you just host for yourself, you don’t gain that much by using Seerr, besides having a nicer UI and you have more search filters compared to Sonarr and Radarr.
However, if you have multiple users, you benefit a lot of it. Users, which have individual user accounts, can request media. Depending on the configuration, those requests have to be accepted manually, which gives you a way to still be in control of what ends up on your server. The user then gets notified about what has happened and if the media was downloaded.
Honestly the UI is so slick even a one-user setup will benefit in my opinion. Even when not requesting media I use it extensively to look up actors and directors.
Possibly the best foss UX I’ve ever used.
+ on this. Seer has better search than many popular movies/tv sites out there.
I also submit issues through there when I’m not in a position to resolve it immediately.
Media requester for Plex and Jellyfin. But also tells you where things are streaming. A mix between IMDB and JustWatch.
Overseer was for Plex
Jellyseer was for JellyfinNow we have Seer one platform to do both.
So you no longer need a Plex account to use overseer?
Overseerr required Plex. It was forked into Jellyseerr to allow Emby and Jellyfin accounts. Now Overseerr and Jellyseer merge into one tool called Seerr that combines the features. So no.
Doesn’t seem like OIDC made it into the new release, weird. Unless I missed something in the documentation. It’s been working fine on the preview branch for ages.
