Automated Hulu New Release Content Tracking
Every Monday, WebRun opens Hulu, checks new releases added that week, adds titles relevant to the content calendar to a board in Trello, and notifies the content team in Microsoft Teams so coverage and recommendations go out while the release is still fresh.
How do I plan content coverage around new Hulu releases?
WebRun checks Hulu every Monday for new releases, adds relevant titles to a content calendar board in Trello, and notifies the content team in Microsoft Teams. Content research and media teams get a planned weekly calendar instead of noticing a release after its opening week interest has already passed.
- Content gets planned while a release is still fresh
- The Trello board keeps a dated history of every release covered
- The team stops relying on manual browsing to catch new titles
Built for media research teams · entertainment content creators · streaming news outlets · marketing and content teams

Questions, answered
Does it stream or download any Hulu content?
No. WebRun only reads the public new releases listing. It never streams, downloads, or redistributes any programme content.
How does it decide what's relevant to the content calendar?
It compares new releases against the genres and formats the team usually covers, so the Trello board only fills with titles worth planning around.
What if a title is added mid week?
The weekly check catches what's new as of Monday. A later addition is picked up on the next scheduled check.
