Automated Crunchyroll Catalog Addition Tracking

Every morning, WebRun opens Crunchyroll, checks new simulcast and catalog additions, logs each title in Airtable with its genre and release date, and updates the shared catalog tracker in Notion so the licensing team always works from a current list.

In short

How do I track new Crunchyroll catalog and simulcast additions?

WebRun checks Crunchyroll every morning for new simulcast and catalog additions, logs each title in Airtable with its genre and date, and updates a shared catalog tracker in Notion. Licensing and localization teams get a current reference of what's new without checking the site by hand each day.

  • New titles are logged the same morning they're added
  • The catalog tracker never falls out of date
  • Simulcasts and catalog additions stay clearly separated

Good to know

Questions, answered

Does it stream or download any episodes?

No. WebRun only reads the public new releases and schedule pages. It never streams, downloads, or redistributes any content.

How current is the catalog tracker?

It checks for new additions every morning, so the Notion tracker reflects the catalog as of that day's check.

Can it separate simulcasts from catalog additions?

Yes. Each Airtable record is tagged as simulcast or catalog addition, so the team can filter for either in the tracker.
