Automated Rakuten Viki Release Tracking

Every morning, WebRun opens Rakuten Viki, checks your tracked shows for newly released episodes and their subtitle completion status, logs each one to a Notion database, and exports an updated Google Sheet every week so your team has a clean release summary.

In short

How do I track new episode releases and subtitle status on Rakuten Viki?

WebRun checks Rakuten Viki every morning for newly released episodes and their subtitle completion status across your tracked shows, logs each one to a Notion database, and exports a weekly Google Sheet grouped by show, so a content or licensing team always has a current release summary without checking the platform by hand.

  • New episodes are logged the same morning they release
  • Subtitle progress is visible without checking each show manually
  • The team gets a clean weekly export instead of a raw platform view

Questions, answered

Does WebRun submit or edit subtitles for me?

No. WebRun only reads what is already published on Rakuten Viki. It never submits, edits, or moderates subtitles on your behalf.

How current is the Notion database?

It is updated every morning, so new episodes and subtitle progress show up the same day they change on Rakuten Viki.

Can it track multiple shows across languages?

Yes. Give it every show and language you follow and it logs the status for each combination.

Put this on autopilot.
