Automated Letterboxd Weekly Diary Recap

Every Monday, WebRun opens Letterboxd, reviews every film logged, rated, or reviewed in the past week, archives each entry to a running Google Drive doc, and texts you a recap of what you watched and how you rated it.

In short

How do I keep a running archive of my Letterboxd diary?

WebRun checks Letterboxd every Monday for every film you logged, rated, or reviewed in the past week, archives each entry to a running Google Drive doc, and texts you a recap of what you watched through Twilio. It never logs or rates a film itself, keeping your diary entirely your own.

  • A private, running archive of every film logged builds automatically
  • Weekly recaps arrive by text without opening the app to check
  • Nothing gets posted publicly, the archive and recap stay personal

Questions, answered

Does it log or rate films for me?

No. It only reads entries you already logged. Watching, rating, and reviewing a film is still entirely your own experience.

Does it post my reviews anywhere public?

No. It only archives your own diary to a private Google Drive doc and texts you a personal recap. Nothing is posted publicly.

What happens on a week I don't log anything?

The text is skipped entirely, so you're not reminded about a recap with nothing to show.

Put this on autopilot.

Turn it on in minutes - or have our team set it up for you.
