Seerr AI — Seerr with AI search, Backfill, Live download status and more
I’ve run Seerr for years and love it, but a few things kept bugging me. Requests sat on “Processing” with no explanation, Sonarr quietly gave up on missing episodes, and everyone kept asking me when their show would show up. So I forked it and fixed them.
AI search. Describe something (“the movie where a guy relives the same day”), snap a photo of a poster, or ask for a whole franchise, and it finds it and can request it. It also does “pick something for the room” and spoiler-free “catch me up” recaps. It works with Claude, OpenAI or a local model, and it’s completely optional.
Backfill. When Sonarr or Radarr can’t find something, it searches Prowlarr itself under every name the title goes by. It checks each file against your quality profile before downloading, and grabs only what’s missing, with your approval.
Status that tells you something. Instead of “Processing” you see “held by Sonarr’s delay profile, sent in 1h 37m”, “unpacking” or “adding to Plex”, plus an estimate of when a request should arrive.
There’s also a Health page that catches problems before your users do, shared watch lists, a release calendar and Bazarr subtitles.
Every feature can be turned off. It’s one Docker image (amd64 and ARM), it doesn’t need Seerr installed, and it can take over your existing Seerr database (back it up first).

It’s a solo project built with help from Claude. Feedback and bug reports are very welcome.
