## & media automation

The media automation suite (,) are popular tools for automating media library management. Seedr works as a download client for these applications.

### How It Works

1. **Configure Seedr as download client:** Add Seedr's API credentials in your automation tools settings
2. **media automation sends downloads to Seedr:** When your automation tools finds content, it sends the link to Seedr automatically
3. **Seedr downloads to cloud:** Files download to your Seedr storage using our fast servers
4. **Access via WebDAV/FTP:** Your automation tools or media server accesses completed files via WebDAV or FTP mount

### Why Use Seedr with media automation?

- **No local server needed:** Traditional setups require a dedicated server or always-on PC. Seedr handles it in the cloud.
- **Faster downloads:** Our data center connections are faster than most home internet
- **Access anywhere:** Your downloads aren't stuck on one machine
- **Works with Plex/Jellyfin:** Mount Seedr storage as a library source
