About Maintainerr
Maintainerr automatically keeps Plex and Jellyfin libraries tidy: based on rules you define yourself, it finds films and TV series that nobody watches anymore, displays them in a collection and clears them away after a set period – including integration with Sonarr, Radarr, Overseerr and Plex. Instead of letting storage silently fill up, you stay in control with clear, traceable rules. With Managed Maintainerr Hosting from OpenHosting, it becomes a caretaker that simply does its job – without you having to maintain servers or install updates.
The core benefit lies in automation with full transparency: you define rules once based on age, watch status or *arr criteria, preview affected titles in a collection and get notified before anything is cleared away. This lets you reclaim storage without accidentally deleting favourite content. Through the Overseerr integration, requested titles keep their place while unused media disappears after clear deadlines – every action stays traceable in the history and can be monitored via notifications.
Who is Maintainerr suitable for?
Maintainerr is ideal for self-hosters and operators of larger Plex or Jellyfin servers whose storage regularly reaches its limits: family media libraries, servers shared amongst friends, or home lab set-ups with limited NAS storage. Anyone already working with Sonarr, Radarr and Overseerr adds the final building block for a tidy media stack. Instead of manually clearing out files, simply set up some rules once – Maintainerr takes care of the rest in a transparent and traceable way.
