Automated ITVX Release Tracking
Every morning, WebRun opens ITVX, checks your tracked shows for newly published episodes and premieres, posts the day's additions to your content calendar channel in Slack, and sends a Telegram alert when a major series premiere goes live.
How do I track new ITVX episode releases and premieres?
WebRun checks ITVX every morning for newly published episodes and premieres across your tracked shows, posts the day's additions to your content calendar in Slack, and sends a Telegram alert the moment a major series premiere goes live, so a media or entertainment team never covers a release late.
- New episodes land on the content calendar the morning they publish
- Major premieres get an instant alert instead of a missed cycle
- Coverage teams stop refreshing the ITVX schedule by hand

Questions, answered
Does WebRun write or publish coverage for me?
No. WebRun only reads the release schedule on ITVX. Writing, scheduling, or publishing any coverage is left to your content team.
Will Telegram get an alert for every new episode?
No. Telegram only fires for a series premiere. Regular new episodes go to the Slack content calendar instead.
Can I track shows across multiple genres?
Yes. Give it the list of shows or categories you cover and it checks all of them on every run.
